Hi Everyone,
I was watching the Creating Gif Animation webinar, and I am interested in placing a GIF I made in Storyline in my Rise project. I want to place my GIF towards the top of the page like by the title or a heading, but I do not see this option, and I do not see an option to change the size of my GIF. In the webinar, the presenter says how to add the GIF to the Rise project, but does not give the steps or demonstrate, does anyone know how to do this in Rise?
I am not asking how to add the GIF to the Rise project as an interaction block, I am able to add the GIF as an interaction block.
I am looking for the steps of how to add the GIF to the title or the heading of my project.
If you are watching the webinar the question I have is at the 43:00minute mark: https://training.articulate.com/webinars/guest-presenter-sarah-hodge

Only just seen this, sorry.
Storyline itself does not create GIFs. The article is about "motion-graphic-INSPIRED effects" (or so).
You can do a screen-recording (with SL360) and use the resulting video-file to make it a GIF (Online resources as mentioned above) for example.
Once it is in .gif format, you can use it like any other graphic (jpg or png) on websites, emails or even e-learning-courses...
I use it a lot to point out where to click on a website or software. I use Camtasia (there are free video-editing tools which can do this as well) which has an in-built effect like someone is drawing a circle. It's really easy once you have figured it out and everybody is very impressed how clever you are 😉
