I have a Storyline 2 file in which I have the Notes tab visible as the sidebar. I noticed that the alignment of that text from slide to slide changes. For example, on Slide 2, the text appears a line below the text on Slide 1. And then on Slide 3, it appears back to the same alignment as that on Slide 1. Slide 4 text is aligned even further down. I checked the paragraph/font settings. All slide notes are 11 point Arial with no spacing before or after and single spacing.
Any ideas what I can check next or do to fix this?
Hi, yes, I am working locally. I am not able to test it in the actual environment it will reside, but I will try it on scorm cloud to see how it looks there as the course is eventually being published to SCORM for an LMS. I'll let you know how that goes.
Hi, it's been a while but I finally tested this on SCORM cloud and also in the client's LM. Unfortunately the text is still starting on different lines in the Notes tabs on the sidebar.
Is there something else that can cause this?
Thanks

Hi, thanks. So I think your fix is to add the Notes title back in? Unfortunately, the client wants that to remain hidden. To accomplish that, I had gone to the Text Labels tab and deleted the word "Notes". I think that was the issue. I went back to the Text Labels tab and added about 5-6 spaces instead of just deleting the label and that seemed to do the trick!

Hi, Michele -- Thanks for reaching out and sorry to hear of your troubles! I wanted to verify that you are working locally on your machine as described here, and also, are you finding the same behavior when you test your course in the intended environment?

Thanks Michele - and SCORM Cloud is a great alternative if you're unable to upload to your actual LMS. Keep us posted on how it goes!

Hi Michele!
Also, please be sure that you are utilizing the latest update, which is Update 10.
Would you be able to share your story file so that we could take a look?
Hi, yes I can. Can I email you a link to download it?
Regarding the update... I am on Update 7. Is it ok if I update to 10 but someone with whom I am sharing the files is not on 10 yet?

Hmm - hold off until I can take a look Michele.
You can send privately here.
Just sent. Thanks so much for your help!

Hi Michele!
Actually, I think it was more of an issue with your Heading Text color being the same as your background. Not so much the tab name.
This document download and the Transcript > Heading Text :)
I'll send your file back thru as well.
