Thank you. My confidence level (still a bit shaky) grows with every video of yours I watch. I greatly appreciate the time that you put into making the industry stronger.
Tim - I ended up on this particular video doing a search for info on Zoom Regions. Not sure how it landed here but... I want to tell you that is the best investment of my time I have made in a very long time - all thank to you of course. I don't know anything about your LinkedIn Learning work (yet) or your RU-vid channel (yet) but I can tell you, this video not only cracked up a nut of new creative ideas, but I can tell you will save me literally hours of production time. Not just one of the best Articulate tutorial videos I've seen, one of the better, or at least the most helpful, tutorials I've seen in recent memory. Thank you sir for your work.
Thanks, Tony! I really appreciate the kind words! I’ve been doing this stuff for a long time, so it’s always great to hear that it’s helping others! If there’s anything else you’d like to see, let me know!
@@elearningacdmy I was looking for a way to reach you offline so I'm sorry if this is not the place for this question but... :D There seems to be very little to no information on Zoom Regions. Specifically resizing them. Any help or advice you can give in that regard would be awesome. Your efforts are appreciated.
@@tonybittick6420 Yeah...Zoom regions are a little funky in SL. I can count on less than one hand how many times I've used them. In terms of resizing them, without knowing more about what you're trying to accomplish, I will say that they are fixed to the same aspect ratio as your slide...so you can only resize them according to the slide demsions you have set. Not sure if that makes sense here. If you'd like, feel free to post this question in my Ask the Community space here and I can provide a more detailed answer: community.elearningacademy.io/c/advice/
Unfortunately, you seem to have nailed it with the aspect ratio. I had read something similar, but it wasn't a solid source in my mind. I understand your point of using this method and would love to hear any other suggestions. Basically, this is a mobile device tutorial for people who may have never used a smart phone or tablet. So in this case, as over kill as it seems, we're zooming in both on the text step, and then again on the visual example. I just don't want to know circles and arrows if possible. @@elearningacdmy
This has been the best Storyline video I have watched yet! I don't know how I never knew about "Format Painter" after using Microsoft products since a young teen, but that has changed my life. The cue points and bullet animation was extremely helpful as well. Thank you for making an extremely easy to follow video!
Thank you so much, Tim! I know this video was created a while ago - but I learned several new things that I didn't know - even after nearly a year of using Storyline for my position! THANK YOU!
Oh wow! I sure could have saved a lot of time had I known about the cue point!! And even better, how to hide a base layer object while in slide layers. Holy moly - these are awesome. You are a great instructor and I learned so much from this video.
Today was my first day of using g this software, I knew I would be using it so I have been watching lots of your videos in preparation. I made really good use and even taught someone with over 1 years experience about hiding base layer items. I have used button sets and cue points. Thanks Tim
This was the best Storyline video I have seen so far! I know just enough to get started and I have been doing a lot of these things the hard way. You will save me so much time!
Awesome!!! Thanks so much! My two favourites were the format painter and undocking!! But there were also so many others!! Hidden in plain sight! Love that!!
The tips and insights shared in this video are awesome! I have several takeaways in the form of new knowledge, and enhancement of existing knowledge on topics such as Media Library. Thank you and I'm going to watch your videos regularly.
This is so helpful as a beginner in ID and Storyline. Subscribed! I have a question: Do you have a video on creating the shapes on your slides? The Top Blue Shape and the Intro shape with the wavy designs? If so, can you please point me to it? Thank you so much!
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! As for your question...yes! Check out this other How-To Workshop I hosted on how to use PowerPoint for graphic design: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zm6zua2YET8.html Unfortunately, Storyline doesn't currently let you edit shapes like that...but you'll be able to knock it out in PowerPoint. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
Oh, how I wish I'd discovered this about 3 months ago. lol Thank you so much! If you have a video on this, ignore my question, I'm sure I'll find it eventually. But when you were discussing slide transitions on layers, I was wondering if you can "batch" edit all/some/most of your slides (not layers) to have the same transition instead of going onto each slide itself. Again, fabulous tips and tricks. I only knew a couple of them, so this was just incredible. You also deliver information clearly and succinctly. Love it.
Glad you liked it! Yes you can do that...when you're on the Transitions tab, there's an option to "Apply to All." That should take care of it for you. Hope that helps! :)
A couple of questions: 1) Which version of Parallels and which Mac do you use? My set up is very slow on my MacBook Air M1. 2) If you replace a picture, how can you get it to match the size? 3) Is there anyway to drag a box around multiple objects to select them all? Thanks so much!
Hey Jennifer! I'm currently using the most current version of Parallels, on a maxed-out Intel-based Mac. If you haven't done so already, I would suggest checking out this article from Articulate to make sure your settings are right: articulate.com/support/article/using-articulate-software-on-a-mac-with-parallels-desktop I would also suggest looking to see if you need to dedicate more memory to your Windows side. Here's an article on how to do that: kb.parallels.com/en/112091 I hope that helps!
LOVE LOVE this tutorial! And I am sure you already know but just wanted to let you know that you are such a great presenter, communicator, and teacher!! Where can I find more of these types of tips and tricks on Storyline?
Thanks for all the kind words! I appreciate it! And you can final a full playlist of all of my Storyline tutorials here: ru-vid.com/group/PLqq0if6rsK0pwcQxgWRxLSHp1qHi7sDuZ
@@elearningacdmy Tim, I’m learning a lot from your Chanel and now that I’m almost done with my Storyline project, I need a web server to host I think. What you do think about Amazon AWS or Google one?
@@sohyunlee1667 Either of those are just fine. However, if you have license to Articulate 360, it's easier to just publish and host them on Articulate Review. That's what I do...I just turn off the comments.
@@elearningacdmy ya I don’t have the license yet. Do you have a video on this process on publishing? Also which email can I use about taking your classes? Thanks for your time!
@@sohyunlee1667 Got it! Here's a resouce that might help: mike-taylor.org/2017/11/11/google-cloud-platform/ Regarding my courses, you can learn more about my multi-week cohort program here: elearningacademy.io/academy/
This is one of the best Storyline training videos that I have seen. One topic I am trying to find more information is on interactions when using publish to video. I have not found anything that can assist me when setting up user based interactions for materials that will eventually be published in “video”output. Is this possible?
Thanks for watching! I’m glad you found it helpful! To answer your question, it’s not possible to publish to video and allow for user interactivity. It’s just a regular ole’ video that gets spit out. I hope that helps!
@@grantsmall_Ngenious Yes...but you'd have to bring the video and build the interactions in Storyline or another interactive eLearning authoring tool. And, in that case, while the video would be embedded in the eLearning course, in order for the interactivity to function, you'd have to publish it out as an HTML file...in other words, it would no longer be a simple video file.
