This is a niggling problem - the last mail I could find about it was years ago.
When using a € in a text boy with a variable in, I close the screen and reopen it, and find they have changed to an accented A comma theta (as in the images)?
Storyline 360, Tested in the LMS and in Review - in both Edge and Chrome. I'm sorry, I can't share the project - I seem to have found a way around it..
I found that the error only happens in dynamically created textboxes - so I've now solved my problem by having seperate textboxes for the € and for the number. I guess € is incompatable with the string format that SL uses?
Another problem I have is that dynamically created textboxes (i.e. those containing a variable) have no shadow (like vampires.!.) - is this a known issue? is there a way around it?
I created a test file using Storyline 360, Update 26, and published it to Review 360; here's the URL. I'm having trouble recreating the issues you see on Chrome v.73 and Edge, so I still need your help:
RE: €
What font are you using in your Storyline course? I tested Articulate, Arial, and Open Sans, but I wonder if this issue could be font-related. Let me know, and I'll run more tests with the same font!

We haven't seen applied shadows to text boxes with variables not appear, so I'm glad you also brought this to our attention! Could you share a screenshot of what you see in Storyline versus in the published output?
You can privately share your Storyline file with me via this upload link. I look forward to having a closer look, and will delete it once we solve these puzzles!

Hi Adam, thanks for letting us know what's going on.
What version of Storyline are you using?
Also, is the course hosted online? If so, what web browser are you using to view the published course?

Hi Katie - I've made a cut-down version to show you the problems - can I share it with you privately? - There are copyright / secrecy issues
Good morning, Adam. I appreciate you doing that!
