Limitations

  • If your storyboard contains a tile with large content and has scroll bars to view it, based on the layout selected, the Export acts as follows:

    • Same as storyboard layout Content that is currently visible on screen with scroll bars in the default position is exported.
    • One tile per page layout Content up to one full page with scroll bars in the default position is exported.

  • The PDF is generated using default browser resolution: 1366 x 625 px. If your screen has a different display resolution or if you have applied zoom in / out on your browser, then some table columns may be excluded from the exported PDF.

  • Storyboard export currently does not support IP allowlisting. If you have provided Diligent One access only to specific IPs, then users with those IPs will not be able to export a storyboard to PDF.
