Paragraph spacing on slide master
Dec 12, 2018
This is using Storyline 360 3.20.16814.0, Windows 10.
I'm having trouble setting paragraph spacing options on slide masters. The following steps occur:
1. Highlight a paragraph and open Paragraph settings. Enter a desired value for line spacing:
2. Click ok.
3. Click out of the text frame. The text visibly moves to an undesired setting.
4. Open Paragraph settings again. The line spacing value has changed:
This also seems to occur with indentation and the space before/after settings. There seems to be some kind of consistent multiplier of 2.67 being applied to the setting, as the increased value seems consistent depending on the setting I try to apply.
It seems to be similar to the problem described here:
But I attempted the workaround described by Ashley under that post and I'm not seeing a difference in behaviour between slide masters and layouts.

Hi, I noticed another bug along similar lines recently but only just had a chance to replicate it.
1. Create a new project.
2. Set Story Size to 1920 x 1080
3. On a slide master Layout, create a text frame. Type something.
4. Update the 'Normal Style' from that text.
5. Copy the text frame. Paste it on a normal slide.
6. The type size is now 2.666... times the size defined in the 'Normal Style'
There seems to be a consistent theme here of bugs caused by changing the story size to something other than the default.
Thanks for taking the time to report this, Douglas. I appreciate the steps to replicate and I was able to replicate this behavior. It looks like our team is already taking a look.
I've linked this conversation so that we can share any updates with you here.
One workaround is to use right-click and use the paste function instead of using CTRL+V to paste.
Happy Tuesday, All!
Storyline 360 Update 47 is live: We fixed the issue a few of you reported with text styles where the font size changes when copy/pasting in a project with a custom story size.
