I'm trying to publish drag & drop type questions using Quizmaker and the font size changes depending on the length of the options. So a longer option has tiny font size while a shorter option has the normal size. It looks very messy. Is there some work around?
Text in Matching Drag and Drop questions will automatically adjust size to fit inside the drag-and-drop objects. This is by design in Quizmaker.
If this is not desirable, a common alternative is to use a Matching Drop Down question type instead. This workaround allows you to resize the Choice text boxes in Slide View. However, the Match drop-down lists cannot be resized.
If you would like to submit a suggestion to our product development team for review, you may use this Feature Request Form.
If any of the matching drag and drop choices initially has lengthy text, the font size is automatically reduced. However, if you edit the question and remove some of the text in the matching item, the font size is not adjusted back to a larger size. It will continue to display at the smaller font size even if it has less text than other choices. Is there a way to correct this?
Have you tried republishing since making the changes? That should correct it. But if it doesn't, please feel free to send us your .QUIZ file so we can take a closer look and check out what might be going on. Thanks!
Peter, referring to your post on the 18th, How does this help? When I change to Choice box it snaps back and if I force the text box to expand by increasing its font size, the response does not change. Am I misunderstanding you?
