print variable - multiple lines of text

Deb, out of curiosity...might it be the text box settings where the variable reference resides?

You can set the Autofit option Mike references to "Do not Autofit" and make the box any size you want.  That way it will always fit within the area you want, and I believe the text size will remain what you set initially.  Of course, be sure you have the wrap text option checked.

Thank you both! I knew it was something simple that I missed.  I set the text box to Do Not Autofit and resized it to fit in my shape and it worked beautifully.  This is why I love this forum - thank you!!!  Deb

Hello Deb,

Can you explain to me how you created the print button to print what is inside your text fields or your variables.  I'm having a difficult time printing my text fields.  I've used this Execute Javascript with the code javascript window.print(), which only prints a blank page.  I then inserted the the references in the javascript print code and it prints nothing.  Attached is an image of what I'm want to print.

Thank you,

You

Antionette- my apologies for the delay responding.  The javascript I used is window.print();

It looks like yours doesn't have the ";" at the end.  See if adding that helps.

Hi Antoinette! I wanted to welcome you to E-Learning Heroes!

Thanks Deb for helping out!

Hi.

This is 5 years too late but how did you add this project variable?  When I try and create a new variable, I only have 3 options.

Thanks

Hi Iffaf,

If you're looking to add variables to your course, you can follow the steps here. Any text entries you add will also create variables automatically. 

As for the print option, I'm not a Javascript expert but we have a number of best practices and sample code detailed here.
