TABLYR

SWITCHING TO TABLYR

Bring your courses.
Keep your skills.

Already building e-learning in another authoring tool? Import your published courses and PowerPoint decks, and build what your old tool couldn't, then publish to the same LMS.

THREE WAYS IN

Start from what
you already have.

1

Import a published course

Point TABLYR at a course you published as HTML5 from another authoring tool. It rebuilds the slides, scenes, text, media, buttons, layers, timing and triggers as a TABLYR project you can edit.

Use the published .zip, its folder or its story.html.

2

Import a PowerPoint

Turn a .pptx into editable slides: text with its styles and spacing, shapes, pictures, tables, charts and links, with its transitions, animations and narration playing on cue, and speaker notes ready to become narration.

Sections become scenes. Save an old .ppt as .pptx first.

3

Start fresh on the map

New courses open on the course map. Plan scenes and branches, then drop in templates: quizzes, tabs, drag and drop, results slides, software simulations.

Or ask the AI assistant to build first drafts of slides from your outline.

WHAT COMES ACROSS

Your work, rebuilt.
Not flattened.

From a published HTML5 course

Rebuilt as real TABLYR objects you can edit.

  • Slides and scenes in order, at the course's own size, with their backgrounds.
  • Text as editable text boxes with fonts, sizes, colours, bold and italic.
  • Pictures, video and narration, with closed captions and a transcript.
  • Buttons and their states: Hover, Down, Visited and your custom states.
  • Layers and the timeline: when each object appears, leaves, fades or flies in.
  • Variables and triggers that show layers, jump to slides or change states, with their conditions.

From PowerPoint

Slide masters, layouts and placeholders included.

  • Text, bullets and tables with their levels, fonts, line spacing and table styles.
  • Shapes, SmartArt and pictures, Windows EMF logos too, with cropping and alt text.
  • Charts drawn crisp from the deck's own numbers, with the data as alt text.
  • Links to slides and web pages, as click rules.
  • Transitions and animations: slide transitions, entrances, exits, emphasis and motion paths on the timeline, and bullets that appear one at a time.
  • Narration that starts on cue, and slides that advance on their own.
  • Speaker notes in each slide's notes, one click from becoming the transcript.
Import is in beta. When it finishes, a short report lists anything that had no TABLYR counterpart, such as quiz questions, motion paths or the other tool's own player menu. Play the course in Preview, tidy what behaves differently, and set TABLYR's player on the Course tab. Your original files are never changed.

BUILT TO DO MORE

Not the same tool.
A better one.

See and wire the whole course

Every course starts on the course map. Build a branching choice from one form, drag a slide's dot to connect it, then let Check flow find unreachable slides, dead ends and broken jumps, and Trace a path walk it as a learner would.

Change it once, everywhere

Fix one slide, then Repeat on other slides applies the same change across the course in one step, and one Undo reverses it. Save it as an action and run it on any course you build.

AI that builds in your course

Ask for whole slides, interactions, rules or timeline changes and TABLYR builds them for you, ready to edit. Or connect Claude Desktop or Gemini CLI and let them work directly in the course you have open.

Narration, timed for you

Turn your script into AI voice narration, edit it in the built-in audio editor and split a text box so each line appears as it is spoken. Captions and transcripts come with it.

Animate on a real timeline

Keyframe position, scale, rotation and opacity on any object, with easing, alongside entrances, exits and state transitions. No workarounds.

Debug a published course

Record your own secret shortcut. Press it in any published course, even the live copy in your LMS, to jump to any slide and watch a live console show every variable change and the rule that caused it.

Shared layers, built in place

Design navigation bars, logos and menus on top of a real slide instead of a blank master, and choose exactly which scenes or slides they appear on.

Projects you can open and read

A course is a folder on your computer with a readable course file and your media beside it: easy to back up, share and put under version control. Autosave and backups are built in.

Two monitors, your layout

Pull any panel out of the window: Properties, Rules, Layers, the timeline, the slide list or the whole course map. It floats above your work on whichever screen you put it, and Dock puts it back. Keep the map on one monitor and the slide on the other.

Jump to any slide

Press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows) and type a title, a slide number or a slide ID to go straight there. Page Up and Page Down walk the course in order, and the slide list switches between thumbnails and titles, or folds away to give the canvas the room.

AND EVERY COPY INCLUDES

Everything.
One plan.

Every publishing format

SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, xAPI, cmi5, AICC or a plain website, from the same project.

Mac and Windows

One licence runs on two computers, one of each if you like. Projects open on both.

AI at cost

Use your own Claude or OpenAI key, or your Claude or Gemini subscription. You pay the provider directly, never a markup.

SWITCHING QUESTIONS

Before you
move over.

Stuck on an import? Send the report to support@tablyr.com.

Do I have to rebuild my old courses?

No. Import the published HTML5 version or the PowerPoint and keep working on it. Courses already in your LMS keep running as they are; you only need to import the ones you want to change.

Can I keep my current tool while I try TABLYR?

Yes. TABLYR installs alongside it and never changes the files you import from. Try it on one course, then decide.

What doesn't come across yet?

Quiz questions, scrolling panels (they arrive as plain objects), motion paths and the other tool's own player menu from published courses; colour and font emphasis, some chart types, older WMF pictures and embedded objects from PowerPoint. The report at the end of every import lists exactly what was left out.

Will my LMS accept TABLYR courses?

Any LMS that takes SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, xAPI, cmi5 or AICC, which is nearly all of them. Choose the same format and tracking settings you use today.

Can my whole team switch?

Each person needs their own licence. Projects are plain folders, so they share through any shared drive or version control your team already uses.
