Issue with rotating grouped objects in Storyline 360
Dear Articulate Community,
Since a couple of month I have issues with rotating grouped objects. I am not able to rotate any grouped objects that are a combination of shapes and pictures without messing up their positioning. It does work with grouped objects consisting only of shapes though.
I have made a little scree-recording to show the issue (left side: Group consisting of shapes only, right side: Group of shape and picture)

Together with IT I installed various version of Storyline, but the issue persists. Currently I have Build 3.38.21779.0 installed.
It is really driving me crazy, especially as it does work on my co-workes computer. We have the same laptop with the same software installed. Theoretically there should be no difference.
Does anyone has an idea what the issue might be or has experienced something similar?
Thank you for your help.
Best,
Dominik

Dude!!!!! That's not a bug, that's a feature! Keep it, unless you know some other way to make them rotate in opposing directions. There has to be some use for that in animations or videos. :)

😄 Maybe this is the feature we all need.
Hello Dominik,
Thank you for contacting us to share what you are experiencing and for the helpful video.
I assume that your colleague must be using Update 35 or earlier. We did identify an issue in Update 36 that our team is looking into.
I'll add this conversation to the report and if you need this functionality in the meantime, you can install Update 35.

Hi Leslie,
Thank you for your quick reply. In this case I will go back to version 35 released in December, which hopefully solves the issue.

Dear Leslie,
I wanted to quickly check, if there has been a solution for the problem I reported last year? Unfortunately I am still experiencing the same behavior in Build 3.51.24979.0. Please find a new screen recording below:

I am also experiencing this. I'm working with a lot of round shapes/pictures, so it would be great to be able to create a "rolling" effect. Thx. - Martha

Having the same problem here, now in 2024. As it appears Articulate won't be addressing this any time soon, what quick workarounds has the community devised on their own -- other than, of course, spending time regrouping at a angle? Thanks.
Hi Nina!
Sorry to hear you've also been affected by this issue!
I've included you in the bug report and will update this discussion as soon as a fix is in place! I'm hopeful our talented community will be able to offer insight and suggestions!
In the meantime, for your reference, here's a deeper look at how we tackle bugs.
