Maybe it's somewhere I'm not looking, but is there a way to edit the space between paragraphs in Storyline? I've got a large PPT that I imported and now I need to edit some of the text for various animations and need to break it apart.
The problem is I can't get rid of the large space above the first line of each bullet point.
My hack solution has always been to make the font really small like 4-5 pt on a blank line to adjust spacing. Not ideal, but I'll listen in here to see if there's a better way.
One of Storyline's BIG weaknesses is feeble text capabilities. I've heard people suggest preparing text in PPT and copying it into Storyline because that preserves the line spacing from PPT. I haven't tested that, but it sounds like it could be your problem, i.e., the bullet points remember the "before" line spacing from PPT. To get rid of it, I suggest you copy and paste the text back into PPT (or Word or other software with decent text-editing functions), remove the line spacing, and then copy and paste the text back into Storyline.
Like Heather, when I *want* to add space between paragraphs in Storyline, I usually add a blank line, and adjust its size. Putzy, but it'll have to do until Articulate puts basic text-editing functionality into Storyline.

Thanks ladies. I was hoping to avoid that but sounds like there's no choice right now.
Maybe this will show up in Update 4?
