Insert Text Box = Software Crash

Aug 05, 2012

Hi, I am trying to build a business case for my manager to seriously consider purchasing Articulate Storyline.

Problem is despite running a 64-bit win 7 highly spec'd dev machine, Storyline just keeps crashing everytime I go to insert a text box. It appears memory seems to be running low, storyline puts a great big red cross across the slide and then prompts me to save and close the application.

Is this a known issue or am I facing a reinstall?

Hi Peter,

I'm having a similar issue as Nicolette, except I am running Storyline on Parallels 9 on a Macbook Pro. I am also just on the trial. I've disabled sharing, and allotted 2 CPUs and 2GB to my virtual machine. Were you able to find an easy fix for this case, or should I also submit a support case? 

What's happening on my machine is that I will insert a textbox. 

Then I when I release my mouse, this appears. The program will freeze for a while. Then the text box disappears when the program unfreezes itself. I've tried inserting characters, captions, and shapes. This only happens when I insert text boxes...
