GIF with "Zoom Picture" Enabled Won't Autoplay
I have a GIF on the slide that works well, however, I wanted to add the ability to click-to-enlarge aka Zoom Picture and now the GIF won't play until clicked.
Is there a way around this? Or does adding the Zoom Picture effect cancel out the autoplay nature of the GIF?
Hello KaylaBestor-169,
Thanks for reaching out!
I tested the behavior using older versions of Storyline 360, and the behavior you describe is consistent across all versions when it comes to enabling the Zoom Picture feature for GIF images. This typically means the behavior you're experiencing is expected, since allowing the Zoom Picture feature adds additional functionality to the GIF image that might not be compatible with its animation. One workaround you can do is to create your own custom zoom effect for the GIF image using states, as described in this article:
Hope this helps!
