Public Beta 360° images are currently in public beta for Storyline 360, which means you can use them for production as we continue to enhance them. Install the July 2021 update.

Once again, Articulate has taken what Adobe Captivate did with a concept - 360 degree images - and took it way beyond the next level. They've resolved all my prior complaints from Adobe's 360 degree image features. Bravo Articulate!
Great demo - Could this functionality be used in an arc shot? Meaning the camera is moving around the subject (instead of viewing the surroundings from the subjects point of view).
Great question, Benjamin. You sure can. You can apply entrance/exit animations and even motion paths. If you place the 360° images on slide layers, you can apply a slide transition to each layer to fade in each image. It really works like any other image as far as animations and transitions are concerned.
@@cbtcafe Thank you for the quick reply. Super glad that 360 images are finally integrated into Articulate. This is a MAJOR breakthrough and will solidify it as our go-to application for our development pipeline.
@@BenjaminAMcKay Totally agree and that's great to hear about your go-to app. If you're looking for inspiration, Tom shared a 360° roundup post today: blogs.articulate.com/rapid-elearning/how-are-you-using-360-images-in-e-learning/ And we also have 27 examples users shared in this post: community.articulate.com/articles/360-image-examples/
Can you use this feature to video a 3 dimensional object. For example, allowing a user to view a widget from any angle with the widget being the center of focus?
I designed on storyline 360, created a 360 space as you instructed, but when published, it can only be viewed on a computer, not used on a phone or tablet device, right? I need your help because I'm participating in an LMS design competition. Thank you very much
Such a great tutorial - gonna give it a go! Sorry if this is a stupid question but did you just use an iPhone to take the photo? Any tips for that? Thanks so much!
Hi Caity - Some phones, such as the Pixel, have a built-in feature that allows you to capture your own 360° images. But not all phones have this feature. For example, an iPhone camera with panoramic mode enabled captures 240° cylindrical panoramas. And although you can still add 240° images into Storyline 360, they won’t render correctly. Example: articulate-us.s3.amazonaws.com/support-share/YTshare/tbraddick/360+Images+iOS+Pano/story.html Here are four of the most common 360° cameras course designers are using: community.articulate.com/articles/360-images#360-cameras
Since someone brought up Adobe Captivate, I thought I would ask the following question here: Does Adobe handle branching scenarios better than Storyline. or at least allow manual override of slide numbers ? I have used various versions of Storyline for several years, and 90% of the E-learning classes I make have branching in the form of Main Menu slides and sub menu slides (i.e. click buttons to go non-linearly through the course). Storyline's auto numbering of slides has messed up every one I have ever made (even with using the trick of vertical location on the timeline). To make the courses work I must "hardwire" every slide jump because with messed up numbers you cant use the forward, previous options as they use the slide numbers. If Adobe handles this better I will switch when my subscription is up.
yeh, Lance you sure can. Just put each 360 image (scene) on a new layer (all 360 images on layers) trigger the first layer to show. - trigger the hot spot to show the layer. You can even make a menu on the base layer as a quick shortcut to the different scenes (layers)
We're looking at options for zoom and image sizes but it's too early to confirm. We're currently working on adding tooltips, accessibility, and localization features to the 360 images articulate.com/support/article/Articulate-360-Feature-Roadmap
Yes that's possible a bunch of ways. Using the Guide Tour option, you can add a trigger to the last marker to jump to next slide. You can also use variables to enable the next button after all markers have been clicked. I'm recording a video tutorial right now on 7-8 ways you can enable the next button after all markers have been visited.
Hi Ken - Did you download Storyline 3 or Storyline 360? The 360° Images tab is available in the SL360 trial. If you go to the Help tab on the ribbon > About Storyline, what do you see for version number?
@@keni95851 Okay, good. I don't mean, good you need to re-download the trial, but "good" in that there's nothing wrong with the SL360 trial:) Here's where you can download Articulate 360 trial: 360.articulate.com/

Making me so happy this feature David! Finally it is here! I will definitely use this for my clients. Tooooo good.

That's fantastic feedback, Angie! I shared your comment w/ our team. You made our day!
why morf isn't in articulate
Thank you David as usual...The best!
Thanks, Astrid!
This is great! I'm really excited about the possibilities of virtual reality in eLearning. Where do you find 360-degree images to add?
I listed a few good sites in this article: community.articulate.com/series/e-learning-challenges-complete-list/articles/360-images#Free360Images
Great tutorial. is there a way to make audio automatically play when you click on a hotspot without them having to click a play button?
Great demo - Could this functionality be used in an arc shot? Meaning the camera is moving around the subject (instead of viewing the surroundings from the subjects point of view).
Are you able to add a 3D transition effect (blurry zoom to simulate movement) when transitioning to another 360 image?
Great question, Benjamin. You sure can. You can apply entrance/exit animations and even motion paths. If you place the 360° images on slide layers, you can apply a slide transition to each layer to fade in each image.

Will a video 360 feature release?
Can you use this feature to video a 3 dimensional object. For example, allowing a user to view a widget from any angle with the widget being the center of focus?
Does this work with a panoramic image like 《190°, or is thete way to make it work?

Nice!
Looking forward to seeing what you share in this week's elhchallenge, Jonathan:-)
Hi David, are there any tutorials showing how I would go about adding the type of hotspot question shown at 13secs?
Is the output compatible to wearable devices like VR headsets?
Such a great tutorial - gonna give it a go!

So I am assuming to create a tour I just add a layer with 360 image? i.e. a real estate tour... go from room to room.
yeh, Lance you sure can. Just put each 360 image (scene) on a new layer (all 360 images on layers) trigger the first layer to show. - trigger the hot spot to show the layer. You can even make a menu on the base layer as a quick shortcut to the different scenes (layers)
@@MegaLance72 LOL! I agree with Lance.
Are there plans to allow a middle scroll button zoom (or control button zoom) and support for images larger than 8x4k?

@@cbtcafe Thanks for the fast reply. For the time being I can use magnified images attached to a marker if I need to show detail.
How does one look character/ trigger in place? Currently if I don’t click to close the object it will move also.
Hey Jesse, I'm not sure I follow your question. Can you share a link to your example or tell me a little more about what you're trying to do?
Nice little tutorial. Can a trigger be set to jump to a new slide or layer when all of the triggers have been clicked?
Yes that's possible a bunch of ways. Using the Guide Tour option, you can add a trigger to the last marker to jump to next slide. You can also use variables to enable the next button after all markers have been clicked.

@@cbtcafe that is very helpful. Thank you
@@GrammarDisc Here are some ways to restrict moving forward until all markers have been visited th-cam.com/video/AFa32A0IS7g/w-d-xo.html
It could have been amazing if you can add animations to HS or markers
You can add animated gif images to hotspot and marker labels.
what do you do if the 360 images tab is not available? I just downloaded the trial version. Is it only in the full version?
