Grouped shape and text ungrouping in LMS

Jan 07, 2012

I have caption shapes with one of the preset effects applied (PowerPoint 07), and I have text boxes on top, and then grouped, and then animated.

In the published output (publishing to LMS), the grouped objects are separating and moving around on the screen.

Any ideas why this could be happening?

Update:

Happening even in preview mode.

When shape effect is applied to caption, AND it is grouped with a text box, AND the group has an animation, it gets messed up. Is this a known issue? If so, can this be fixed in future releases?

My workaround this time is going to be to copy/paste as PNG, because I'm on such a tight deadline, but that is an annoying process to follow all the time, because whenever you want to edit text, you have re-do the process.

There are some known issues with grouped objects. Would you like to Create an Articulate Presenter Package and upload the zip file to us so that we can get a closer look at it? You can do that here:
