Storyline Files & Dropbox
Hi Mary Beth,
Correct. We haven't changed anything with Storyline that would cause this behavior and the workflow I shared above is the same one we've always recommended. If anyone is not following that workflow, then we certainly recommend doing so.
I wanted to share this tidbit where Tom shared the same sentiment in an older blog post from 2012:
I don’t want to run the risk that Dropbox’s active syncing interferes with my multimedia production.
This is a very disappointing response. As someone who has used this program from the start and has used Dropbox for many years I can pretty much confirm that Articulate in fact has changed something with Storyline that causes this behavior. After losing hours of work because of this and seeing that most of the responses from the staff seem to not understand the issue, I am not confident this has been properly looked into. I have clients at large corporations who are now steering away from this software because of this, unfortunate.
