Bug in Text Highlight Color? Getting Vertical Lines.
Mar 15, 2018
Whenever I use a highlight color on my text -- something I prefer to do to give text a little extra umph -- I get little vertical striations between certain characters. See screenshot below.
At first I thought it was just a rendering error in my browser, but I've now been seeing it pretty consistently. I've also tested using a different font, Arial, and saw the exact same thing. Please note that then I PREVIEW my content, everything looks perfect in Storyline. It is when I publish it to Articulate 360, specifically, that I am seeing these striations.
Has anyone else run into this? Is there a workaround? I've tried adjusting the kerning, but no luck there either.

Hi Ephraim. I managed to reproduce your problem. This might be a rendering issue from Storyline.
Here is a workaround you can try.
Here is a sample image of a published content on Articulate 360. The one at the top is the usual highlight. The one at the bottom is the workaround. Let me know if it works for you. Cheers!
Thanks for looking into this Richard -- I'm glad it's not just me, at least. I'll run with the separate text layers and fill shape for now as you suggested. Thanks!
Thanks Richard for tracking this down, and I'm sorry you ran into this as well Ephraim.
I'd love to know a bit more about where you're hosting/testing your content too? That is good information for us to include when reporting this to our team (which you can always connect with our Support Engineers here).
Hi Ashley and Ephraim. I've submitted a support case (#01304228) regarding this.
The highlight seems to work fine on Safari (Mac OS). It only appears when I try to zoom in. I've included that and other details in the support case. Cheers!
Thanks for reaching out to the support team Richard.
You should be hearing from someone soon.
