Hey there and great question! So, by default, Storyline updates the variable only after the focus changes. But here’s a simple workaround: you can use a click event to toggle the Submit button on and off. Check it out here: 360.articulate.com/review/content/907ca7d2-82ed-4e84-b6e8-abad0d7ac4cc/review Now, I wouldn’t recommend using the toggle trigger I showed in the original video since it doesn’t actually save you any steps. Instead, the approach I shared in the workaround will get you most of the way there. The source file is attached if you want to check it out.

Great point, Kelvin! Sometimes we need help getting past a blank page or coming up with new ideas.

Thanks, @SafetyCynthia! Really appreciate your kind words. Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm sure that will happen at some point.

Woot! Right place right time lol

You sure can. I recorded a quick video to show you how it works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bovckqqcj8xkZpofeature=shared

Yeah, that's fair and I totally get that's pretty much how I see most Storyline designers working, too. But you'd be surprised at how many courses are either storyboarded and written in PowerPoint, then imported into Storyline, or built right in Storyline from scratch. These tend to be more push-based or information courses that lean on templates and style guides. Where AI really steps up is with stuff like summaries, quizzes, or even just the basic formatting like turning paragraphs into bullet points or bolding key terms.

Really appreciate hearing that, Thomas! How long have you been in the ID field? Have you tried any of our weekly elearning challenges? Those are some good ways to practice your tech and ID skills. Thanks again for the kind words. I'll share with the team because that will make their day, too.

@@cbtcafe I've worked in the L&D space for 20 years now, mainly as a soft skills trainer, with a bit of course development along the way. I also managed a small L&D team for a bit. But now, in my new role (about 4 months) and company, it is strictly instructional design (learning content development for customer service). I have not participated in the eLearning challenges on Articulate's community page (yet). But I visit the community page frequently for inspiration, ideas, and problem-solving.

Yeah, no kidding! That would be an amazing use case, and I really hope we get to see it happen. Honestly, you’ll probably see that tech roll out as a standalone tool first before it’s built right into the authoring apps themselves. But the possibilities are incredible.

Sky's the limit, Kelvin! There's so much more we can do

Appreciate that, Kelvin!

I feel the same, Kelvin! How are you enjoying AI Assistant?

@@cbtcafe Fantastic. I started promoting it in the region. I just returned from Cambodia and Indonesia. Talking about AI in eLearning Content Creation.

Which blocks are unresponsive? It might be quickest to contact support: access.articulate.com/support/contact/ I checked w/ team and there aren't any currently known issues.

Just to confirm, you're clicking the AI Blocks from the Block LIbrary: d.pr/i/M2mNN2 ? Each of those should open a dialog window or the side panel when clicking. If that's not happening, please contact support so they can figure out what's going on.

@@cbtcafe Correct, I'm clicking the blocks for "AI" and to no success, however, when clicking the non-AI blocks I'm successful.

You should have it today! Hope you enjoy.

AI Assistant can understand and generate content in any language supported by OpenAI. However, for the most accurate results, I recommend having a language expert review any translated content. For more details, you can refer to the FAQ access.articulate.com/support/article/Articulate-360-FAQs-Articulate-AI

@@cbtcafe Thanks for the non-answer. I am pretty disappointed of the evasive way in which you refer to the clearly missing language. I just started the trial, and no matter what I do, the spoken language that comes out is NOT Norwegian, it is Danish, or Swedish. I know you guys in the US hardly even know where these three countries are on a map, but even though Norway, Sweden and Denmark are neighbouring countries, each has its own distinct language. Why isn't our money worth the same as our Scandinavian brothers' and sisters' money? I would love for you guys to help me out here. Push this upwards, as soon as you can, please. Without Norwegian as a spoken language, SL360 loses a lot of power for my company - not to mention our clients.

Hi @@bentkm Thanks for sharing that feedback. I wasn’t trying to be evasive but I’ve passed your concerns along to the dev team. They’ll probably want to follow up with you. Could you send me your contact info at david at articulate so I can pass it along? On a personal note, my paternal great-grandfather Ole emigrated to the U.S. from Norway back in 1880, so I'm one of those who can find Norway on a map.

@@bentkm Okay I spoke with the team and the mistake was all mine. I apologize for misunderstanding your question. But now I know you're referring to the voices in our AI text-to-speech, which currently do not support the Norwegian language. Here's the list of the currently supported languages: community.articulate.com/kb/user-guides/ai-assistant-producing-highly-realistic-audio/1198744. In the meantime, I'll make sure our team is aware of this, especially since it's critical for your company to have the Norwegian language on the list.

@@cbtcafe Hello David, thank you for your kinder reply to me than my comment to you was. I have done as you asked. Nice to know you're able to point out Norway on a map. The whole story about the Norwegian emigration to the US in those days is indeed an interesting one :-). 😎

You made my day. No-my week! Thanks so much, @taniah9260!

Oh, I totally get that! Having everything integrated is a huge deal for folks who don’t want to constantly bounce between Storyline, Rise, and other graphics or AI tools. Keeping it all in one place just makes the whole process so much smoother.

@@cbtcafeEven with semi-custom graphics platforms, such as the e-learning brothers, the image options can be few and/or distasteful. So, thank you again.

@@Bhatp9 That’s a fantastic point. Articulate put a lot of effort into refining the image processing to avoid any unwanted results. Take it for a test drive, and let me know what you think once you’ve had a chance to play around with the trial.

Hey, totally agree-Adobe Firefly is fantastic for generating images you can use anywhere. Storyline’s AI Assistant is more about working directly in your e-learning flow, so it’s a different use case and benefits. As for importing source materials, you can do that in Rise: training.articulate.com/videos/rise-360-ai-course-ai-settings

The quality is amazing, Kelvin!

That’s a fantastic way to refresh older courses with minimal effort.

Oooh great idea, Kelvin!

Great point, Kelvin. Hopefully this gives designers more time to focus on the building more meaningful courses.

​@@cbtcafeHi David, I did not manage to find the insert Audio with AI although I have updated my Storyline. Please advise. ​

@@kelvinloh8840 Checking with the team. We're rolling the update out all month, but I thought the partners already had it. Stand by.

Hope you're doing well, Kelvin!

HI! Great question. Articulate partnered with OpenAI and ElevenLabs, and using an in-house solution for the image generation. You can read more about that here: cdn.articulate.com/assets/pdfs/AI-Security-and-Privacy-at-Articulate.pdf

@@cbtcafe Great thanks David. The image generator and course summary are already speeding up my workflow!

Hey there! We started rolling out the AI Assistant yesterday, and everyone should have access to the trial by the end of the month. So you'll see the feature at some point in the next two weeks. It’ll be a paid add-on to your Articulate 360 subscription. You can check out more details here: community.articulate.com/blog/articles/build-compelling-courses-up-to-9x-faster-with-articulate’s-ai-assistant/1197580

Hey there! We’re in the process of rolling out a free trial of AI Assistant to all customers this month. If you don’t see it yet, hang tight-you’ll have it by the end of the month. And yes, it’ll be a paid add-on to your existing 360 subscriptions once the trial wraps up.

Okay, that’s a great question! So, if you’re on the same slide and you’re just trying to track if the learner’s clicked all the buttons or objects-whether they’re showing layers or just clicking stuff-you can totally use the ‘Visited’ state. And here’s the best part: no variables needed. Happy to take a look at your file if you have any questions.

Appreciate hearing that! Thank you.

You can include multiple quizzes in your course, but only one quiz can be submitted for tracking and reporting purposes. Here’s a screenshot showing how it looks when you submit your Rise course to Reach: d.pr/i/ygIA5C.

Thanks, Nathaniel!

Yes it's just as possible. Can you post in the forums and tag me in your subject line? Happy to take a look at your project file to see what's going on.

Hey Nathaniel, thanks for the feedback. So, I’m using a Sennheiser MKH 50, and yeah, it’s got a bit more low-end than my other mics. Now, while I’m not really hearing as much low-end myself, I totally get what you’re saying. There are definitely some podcasts out there that are tough to listen to on headphones because of that. I might’ve had the mic too close that day or maybe just the positioning was off, but it’s definitely something I care about and try to avoid. I’ve been doing this for a while now, and I’ve moved away from that over-compressed, over-bassy sound that I used to go for in the early days, but yeah, it could still be there sometimes. So, I really appreciate you mentioning it because if you’re picking up on it, odds are someone else is too.
