I am using SL2. I have a multiple choice quiz question I created. It looks right when I format it. I click preview this slide and it looks right. Then something happens (I can't figure out what), and the formatting changes. The question portion goes into a single line of text across the top of the slide and runs off the slide. How can I get it to stop doing this and keep the quiz slide formatting? I have included screenshots below one without run-off the slide (before) and one with run-off the slide (after).
The layout and background of that look a bit different so I'm curious if you're applying a slide master or another background element that may be formatting differently? Also, can you confirm that you're working on local project files as detailed here.

Hi Beth,

Yes, I'm working from my hard drive. Whether I use our branded template or not, I get the error.
Hi Beth,
Are you able to share the .story file here with us so that we can take a look?
Here are just the good and bad quiz slides. Thanks again for the help.
Hi Beth!
Thanks for sharing your file and allowing us to take a look.
Slide 3 is set for the text to wrap within the shape and the shape could re-size to fit the text.
Slide 2 was not set to wrap, so when the shape re-sized to fit the text, it placed it in a string.
If you re-size your text box and then adjust the settings to wrap - you should be good to go.
Thank you. That's weird that they would exhibit different behavior as I brought them both in with the same template. Quirky.
