Hi Doris,
For my issue, as of Nov2020, I was told it was a known issue but they couldn't commit to a time that it would definitely be resolved by.
I ended up changing my question type to a drag and drop question (see attached) to achieve the same ends.
I have the same problem as well - there's plenty of space in the box - but the font reduces to a very small size.
Hi John!
Sorry, you're running into this issue as well! We still see this issue in our latest version of Storyline 360 (Build 3.53.25436.0). We are currently prioritizing other bug fixes for upcoming releases, but I'll update you in this discussion when this makes it on the roadmap.
If you'd like help finding a workaround, we're happy to help. You can upload your .story file privately to us in a support case.
Thanks for the reply - I changed the exercise to a freeform drag and drop - But you do have the problem with this workaround if you want ALL items to be committed to a position before the Submit. i.e. say I have four items to put in sequence - in my case, they must ALL be put in sequence because I want the the feedback to appear on the screen where the items were originally.
This issue of wanting all draggable items to be dragged before submit is the subject of another thread I posted on recently. So I have a solution to this issue - I just raise it to make the point that a sequence drag and drop is a specific type of interaction and the workaround isn't quite the same thing.
This issue was reported nearly a decade ago (that's weird to say). I'm seeing this as well, and it's especially getting troublesome given the explosion of high-resolution screens. Is there any update on this or should I give up on doing these types of questions?
I keep banging my head over these types of issues... I want to use the drag-and-drop feature, but for some reason, your programmers seem to have tied the font size of the choices to the default Story size of 960 x 540. My storyline file is set to 1280 x 720 and the font size comes out wrong. To emphasize the point, I set a new file to 1920 x 1080 (I mean, it is the year 2023, after all) and I added a drag-and-drop quiz question. The "Screenshot" shows what it's supposed to look like, but the slide shows small fonts instead. I've included the Storyline file.
Have you guys ever considered rewriting Storyline from scratch?
@Anthony, I'm so glad I'm not the only one experiencing the issue with the sequencing template. I thought there was something wrong with my file. It's also 1280x720. When I previewed the slide I was shocked at the reduction in size. The numbers were tiny and the text is definitely NOT how it looked when I designed it.
I am seeing this problem. See attachments.
@cas and @christina Bush, what I ended up doing was to create a "Freeform Drag-and-Drop Form"
This is ok as a workaround however, it added time and frustration to something that should have worked in the first place. Also, the freeform question type doesn't allow for randomizing.
You know, the dream would be to be able to create an excel spreadsheet where I could add all the questions, answers, feedback, etc. and be able to import that and generate the quiz all at once, but I digress.
