Can you change the font color in the Notes tab in Storyline 360?

Hi Cindy. I just had a similar problem last week. I used the following link which provided some assistance: https://community.articulate.com/series/74/articles/articulate-storyline-360-user-guide-how-to-add-slide-notes#format

Unfortunately though, it seemed to work in the preview version but not in the published version. What did help was to highlight each set of notes individually and set the text highlight color to "No Color. "

Hi Cindy,

Yes. You can adjust this player color via:

Player > Colors & Effects > Advanced Color Options > Editor > Text

Here is a helpful job aid for the player colors.

Hi Leslie,

I have the same issue with Notes font. I am using the modern player, and it's the dark theme. I don't know how to make the default font color and size as they're inconsistent through the course. Some notes appear to be more white-ish while the others appear grey. I cannot find the "Advanced Color Options" for the modern player.

Hello Qinyi,

There is no global settings for the notes in the Modern Player. Instead, you can change your text format on a slide by slide basis.

Here is a screenshot where I changed the colors of some words.

And here is a screenshot of the published output.

I vote to add global settings to change the note colors in the modern player.

Thanks, Penny. This is a feature request we are tracking and I've added this conversation to our report which will allow us to share any updates with you here.

I wanted to share some information about how we manage these feature requests as that may be helpful. 

I thought we were able to adjust the font color/size for Notes in Slide Master, but it doesn't seem to be working. Also, the Format Painter only works on the main screen, not in Notes. Am I doing it incorrectly, or are these things even an option in SL 3 or 360? 

Good morning, Jill!

Great questions. I'm happy to answer them:

• Is there a way to adjust the font color/size of notes via slide masters? 
  Currently, there isn't a way to adjust the formatting of a font via slide masters. 
• Does the format painter work in the Notes panel?
  The format painter isn't available for notes at this time.

We're actively tracking requests for a global notes formatting option, so I'll surface your post to my team. Here's how we manage feature ideas.

One idea to control the visual appearance of text elements is to use text styles. You'll still need to apply the style to each Notes panel, but it might help speed up the process. Here's a video demo.

Let me know if any more questions come to mind!

Hello all!

Good news! In Storyline 360 (Build 3.85.31840.0), you can now instantly update the formatting of all slide notes in your project.

From here, all you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app!
