Building Larger Captions
Feb 06, 2020

Hello all, I am building a customer course for my company. When I click to show captions, they appear approx. 8-9pt in size. And are MUCH smaller compared to the rest of the slide. (Note: I have blurred the image, for licensing reasons, and highlighted the captioned area with a callout). Has anyone encountered this? Is there a way to enlarge the captions, I couldn't see the option in the player... and was curious if someone had a solution. Any help would be much appreciated! Have a great day!

In Player Properties go to Colors & Effects and change the Player font size percentages. That also changes the caption font size.
Unfortunately, I tried that, and the text still remained small.
Yes, you are correct, I found this also on Friday, it's a bug. Also the player size doesn't change. Report it, I will too.
Hi, Emma and Nejc,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, and I'm sorry you're running into this issue! We have it reported as a bug and are working through it.
I'll jump back in here and let you know when there's any progress to share on a fix!
Thank you Ren, I do have a case going as well - Case #02155443
Thanks for sharing that case number, Emma :)
Hello, everybody!
I'm excited to share that Update 37 for Storyline 360 is ready! It holds a fix for the issue where Closed captions didn't change size after adjusting the modern player font size, nor did they display consistently when the
Player.DisplayCaptionsvariable was set to true.To see all the enhancements this version has to offer, follow these steps to update your software. You can also view the release notes right here!
Thank you for helping us make these improvements!
