I created a template file to import quiz questions into. After import, when I go to do final tweaks, if I try to resize the answer box in anyway, it resizes itself real small and will not let me open the box to show all the answers again. Has anyone experienced this? Example file attached.
Darn, looks like making the box bigger on the master made the issue worse. When I go to move the boxes, it all goes crazy again. Answer box closes up and cannot open.
Are you trying to resize the text boxes to just have more space between the answers? The sizing is set out by default based on your text font, and amount of text. That way it can shuffle and always place the items at the right distance apart. Trying to adjust the spacing using the bounding lines will cause this odd little bug - so instead look at changing your overall font options such as size, line spacing, etc.
Not trying to change text size, just fix the boxes from imported questions. It basically is a buggy process. I have found my way around it by doing a lot of manual work, but thanks.

Hi Sarah,
Sorry you ran into trouble with this. That certainly does look a little strange.
It looks like the content just doesn't 'fit', so you got the scroll panel and the reduced size. It must be changed on the master slide to accomodate.
Then it will look like this:
So, you may still need to play with text size or spacing.
Check out your updated file to see it yourself.
Ah, I see. Little bug and have to make the box on the master larger than the slide. Thanks!
What explains this happening? I don't see anything different in the excel file.
