My feedback is popping up in microscopic font. Both my Feedback master and the feedback layer claim they are 11.5 font size, but the box is 4 1/4"x1 1/2". That text box has 60 words in it. On five lines. How do I control the font size?
You'll want to make sure that within the feedback master and the layers, that the text box is not set to "shrink text on overflow." Additionally, if this was a quiz created in Quizmaker 09 that you've upgraded, we don't automatically add the scrolling panel for large feedback, so you can follow the directions here to create one for those feedback layers with longer text.
This was a quiz made in '09. I really don't want scrolling panels on the feedback. I don't think many people would bother to scroll through a tiny panel on a large slide. What I did for these is moved "Correct" or "Incorrect" and "Continue" out of the box and expanded the text box to use all of the gray box. Why don't you allow the box itself to be enlarged?
I'm not aware of the reasoning behind it, but it sounds like something to submit a feature request about, to be able to resize the box within the feedback layers. I'm glad you were able to figure out a workaround that would work for you.
Quizmaker 09 used to expand the box to accommodate the feedback. Quizmaker 13 does not do that. It just shrinks the text. So I always now have to go to the feedback master, and enlarge it, so that it will have enough room to accommodate the longest feedback I have anywhere on the quiz.
Seems going from 'readable' feedback in '09 to 'microscopic' feedback in '13 is a huge step backwards. From what I'm seeing here we CANNOT adjust on the Feedback Master and have to adjust per question . . . . surely not.

Thanks for sharing your feedback here Bernard.
