Resizing and formatting word bank field

Feb 14, 2013

Hi,

In quizzes, is there a way to edit the size, color and effects of the word bank field (where you pull your words into)?

Thanks

Hi Stephen, 

Sounds like you got Storyline to open OK? Great news!

It doesn't sound like the kind of customization you're hoping for is possible at this time. Anything that can't be modified through the Color Themes, would need to be a feature request.

Out of curiosity though, mind attaching a screenshot of exactly the areas you'd like to customize?

Thanks!

Sorry to jump in here. Looks like Pete's right, you can't change the format of the target, but you can change it for the objects you drag onto it. I think this is because when you're placing that answer into the field it doesn't actually change anything for the field itself. 

So, when you're dropping the response into the field it's actually covering it. So, any changes made to that field won't actually show up in the course. 

I did find a way to get a little sneaky with this, though. What you can do is make the font changes to the response and save the object as an image. Then, place that image, over the field, on a new layer. Add a trigger to show that layer when that object is dropped over the field. You may also need/want to do this on the feedback layers.

Here's a quick example. (Love is the answer!)

Let me know if this works for you!
