Text in Boxes Animating either Text or Box, not both
Jul 29, 2013
Hello,
I'm having a presentation-wide issue with some of my boxes when animating using a simple Fade.
I have boxes at the top of each of my slides with text inserted (not a text box over a shape, but text within the shape itself). On some slides, the box will not appear at all but the text will appear, and on others, the box appears but the text does not.
On yet other slides with shapes that contain text, the box will never fade or move and sit on the slide for the entire slide, but then the text appears and disappears as instructed.
Everything works fine in PowerPoint and when I run the presentation, but when I preview or publish with Articulate I run into this issue.
I would take the text out of the shapes and just place it on top of the shapes and assign animation to both objects, but I've had A LOT of issues with boxes moving around after publishing so that the object is no longer where I put it after publishing, and this is a 55 slide project and doing this work around will take HOURS.
Any solutions? Am I animating wrong? Does Articulate not support objects with text? Please help. On a deadline and loosing my mind :/

Hi Whitney,
Would it be possible for you to share your file here or submit it as a Support case? When sending your Presenter files, here are directions on how to package it and when submitting a Support case you'll be able to upload it on the second page.
Hi Ashley,
My browser crashes every time I try to attach my project here (probably because it's HUGE), but I just submitted a report case which I believe was successful.
Thank you!!!
Thanks Whitney - I'm glad you were able to submit a Support case, that's sometimes easier with large files than loading it into the forums. I saw that Rowie has been assigned to your case (# 00347627 for my reference) so I'll follow along so that I can update the thread.
Hi Whitney,
I'm just following up here as I saw Rowie sent you some suggestions including testing your anchor feature locally first and repairing your Articulate Studio to ensure that Quizmaker isn't corrupted. Hope that all is fixed in your presentation!
