format painter in question/quiz bug

Apr 26, 2023

Storyline 360.

Use the format painter to try to change the style of an answer option.

Each question answer has multiple states (rollover, select, etc.). The format painter should NEVER copy content, but if you use it to say put an indent on each answer option, you will get the the actual content copied from a different answer option when you do. 

Worse is that you can't see that storyline is changing the content of the question in some of the states until you preview or publish, or manually check each state.

This effectively makes the format painter a major time waster because you can't trust it.
