Bringing media into a story – part 1
Storyline provides a few different methods for incorporating media into a story. Regardless of the method, you will begin from the Insert tab menu in the Media section of the Ribbon.
There are two ways to bring media into Storyline:
- Insert into a slide: With this method, content is imported into a slide. It can be edited, and its playback options can be adjusted.
- Link to external content: This method makes external content viewable within a slide or in a new browser window. When within a slide, it gives the appearance that content is contained directly within the slide, but in reality, it is only linked. The content cannot be edited but its playback can be adjusted.
