Leveraging Storyline 360 Master Slides

Articulate Storyline 360 slide masters are powerful but take time to wrap your head around. They allow you to create "types" pages with built-in logic and layers. Once you "master" the master slides, you can get even more out of your Storyline 360 interactions.
In this video, I walk you through the idea of master slides and then show you some simple examples of how master slides can be used to get more out of your Storyline 360 training.

I've been on Articulate for 2 years now and haven't spent nearly enough time learning about Master Slides, this was an excellent window into what is available!

Glad it was useful! Master slides really can do a lot if you get used to them.

For accessibility, do you know how screen readers interpret the stuff on the master slides?

[@LearningDojo]

From what I can tell yes it is. If it has the accessibility in the master slide it should still work. When the page builds out it build content on the master slide first then the page but the accessibility should stay the same from my understanding.

Hello. Thank you for the video. Is there a way to keep a text box on the master slide always on top? I built a countdown timer on the master slide but when I insert an image in my slide the image will cover up the timer. I tried to do that to one of the layourts but it still got covered up.TIA

[@LearningDojo]

Yeah I run into the same thing. I would love this ability. I wonder if some custom JavaScript could help with that but have not tested that yet.

[@lanma2658]

@@LearningDojo I have also tried to put the image as a background for one of the sub-master slides. So whenever I need a slide with that image I will just use the one particular master. It seems to solve this problem and have the timer on top of the image. However, though it looked great when I was creating the slides, the image background turned dark when I previewed or published it. I have opened a ticket with Articulate regarding this image issue.

@@lanma2658 Yeah curious what they say. You may also check if your layer is being presented as a modal in your slide settings. That may be a reason it darkens out.
