Animating By Paragraph Missing in 360

Hey everyone,
I'm just building in 360 for the first time in a couple of months and noticed that I can't animate by paragraph. I don't mean it's not working, I mean it's not there - like I'm back in SL1. I searched around and found a screenr on how to do it in 360 using the options dropdown, so it seems like it's me. I checked each type of animation and nada.
I just updated to the latest edition this afternoon.
Any advice?

Hey there Steve,
That's definitely odd! What type of object do you have selected--is it a text box or a shape that contains text?
If so, you might try doing a simple repair on Storyline 360. And if that doesn't work, reach out to our support engineers here. They're rockstars, and you'll be in good hands!
Hey Steve - Looks like Alyssa beat me to this thread, but I did record a simple Peek Video to demonstrate setting this up as it is working as expected in Storyline 360 for me.
Thanks Alyssa, I'll try the repair and see if that works. It's here on my laptop, just my desktop has it missing. It was a text box.
Thanks for the video Leslie, but as I mentioned in my OP it wasn't a matter of not knowing how to do it (if I didn't know I would've learned in the screenr i found) but i just could do it.
Thanks for that update, Steve. Keep us posted on whether or not the repair works!
So I discovered the issue - my colleague created the slide and was copying and pasting the text boxes, but he started with a Title Placeholder text box. It appears that titles can't have paragraphs animate individually because, well why would a title have paragraphs? :)
Wow! Good find Steve :) Thanks for sharing.
