We had a similar issue a few months ago. We think it happened in our projects because we copied and pasted the text from a word document, we think there was some sort of formatting that wasn't compatible so Storyline just did it's own thing.
In terms of fixing it.....unfortunately we had to re-build the slides from scratch as just deleting and re-entering the text didn't help.
Then I think the problem might be borned while translating the course from Danish to English.
I made an export file for translation, did the translation and imported it again. That all happened using word.
The fact, that the problem allmost only occurs on my section 2, which also was the section where I used the translation export/import function, is another indicator - that the problem was coursed from Word.
I will try to find a way to fix the problem. Perhaps I can cut the text out, clip it into Windows notepad (I am not sure it is the right english word) and back again????
Hello all. I am having this issue now with the latest Storyline 360 update. I have text on my slide that doesn't have any roll over states. Yet if I move the mouse over the text. I would get this pink high lighted texts. It seems SL360 is treating these text as a interactive text with roll over states. Any help please? This could be a bug again in SL360.
Also, I have tried retyping the texts. Sometime, it will work. Sometime, it will not. It is not ideal to retype everything for the entire course or series. Thanks again for looking.

Sorry I can't offer a more pleasing solution.

Hi Ted
can you share the slide
Wendy,
thanks. I forgot about that.
Hi Ted
can you share the SL2 slide that you upgraded or did you copy/paste from SL2 to SL360?
Wendy, the file is from the upgraded slide from SL2. All I did was changed the text and player so that I can share it.
Also, I have tried retyping the texts. Sometime, it will work. Sometime, it will not. It is not ideal to retype everything for the entire course or series. Thanks again for looking.
Strangely enough. If I place a Hotspot object over the text. Then preview it. The pink will not show up.
Hi Ted
I meant the original SL2 slide but that's ok...it is holding onto formatting from somewhere so you can use the clear formatting option to remove it

Wow!!! it works. Thank you so much Wendy.
