I am doing a voice over and using the narration script box. I have a lot of text and the font is small and hard to read when recording. Is there a way to make the font bigger or is there an anlternate way to do this?
I've seen exactly what you mentioned. The font can be a bit tiny in the narration script window. Currently, there is no option for re-sizing this, however. As an alternative, you could temporarily change your screen resolution - that might make it easier to read. Another option would be to use Word or another word processing program and have it opened alongside Storyline, so you can read as you record (I've done this a few times, just because I like BIG letters when I'm reading out loud, it saves me from stumbling over words).
I believe this would make a great feature. If you haven't already, I suggest sending in a feature request.
Old school, I know, but I'd suggest printing out your copy. That way, you'll be able to move your body more (gesture) as you speak. Try recording a slide standing stock reading from your screen and then record the same slide as you're standing and emphasizing key works with a gesture. The latter will most likely sound more alive.

Thanks, Francis. Have a great day!

Great suggestion, Daniel! I may even use it
Thanks!

For me, it's imperative to stand when recording. My posture is better and I can gesture more. And plus, I just feel more alive when I'm standing up.
Thank you - all great ideas. I figured out that using Word would do what I wanted. Seems like I figure out right after I ask the question!
