Formatting won't show up in states when I preview or publish

May 13, 2024

Hello! I have created a simple quiz. The user clicks on true or false. The answer is then triggered inside a separate shape. If the user click 'true', the TRUE state for my answer is activated . If the user clicks false, the false state is activated.

It all works fine apart from the fact that none of my bolds, or italics are displayed in the true of the false state of the answer shape.

I can see the formatting fine as I'm creating the project, but no formatting is visible when I preview or export. Any ideas?

Hi Helen!

Sorry to hear you've run into this setback!

To clarify, does this issue occur across all fonts or is it specific to one? Also, it would be helpful to see a copy of your .story file and test the behavior on our end. Feel free to upload a copy here in the discussion or privately through a support case.

In the meantime, I found a related discussion where another user worked around this issue by using static fonts instead of variable.

Hi it would be amazing if you could have a look and see if you can suggest why its happening. So if you do the quiz, the states of the answer box change to one or the other. The first 2 or 3 are formatted ok .. but after that there are not bolds etc displayed. Although when you look in edit states you'll see that I have put formatting in..
the font is work sans. I don't usually have an issue with it
Thanks so much.
