I noticed that when i want to edit the format of a placeholder, the font size increase each time i modify any of the formatting options.
For exemple, i set my font size to 12, then i change the color, my font size change to 15, then i put my text in bold, the size change to 17,5 etc... I have reached a size of 425 just by making some color test.
I m working locally and I can't say if It has ever occured before because it's my first project in Storyline 2.
It seem than i am not able to reproduce the issue when i create new projects. But if i reload my previous project the issue is still here. So it may be a problem with my project's file
Just to jump in here, I have seen this issue on courses that were updated from SL1 to SL2 with the font size jumping around, i.e., getting bigger, sometimes dramatically bigger like jumping from 14 pt. to 400 pt. I haven't noticed it when working on a file that was newly created in SL2.
I was able to find a known issue regarding this. You can read about it here. Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce the issue from your file, as well as in a new file.
It seems to be possible to recreate this in a new Storyline 2 file, by attempting to add two lines of differing coloured font to a single textbox placeholder.
For example, one textbox contains Myriad Pro, 255,255,255, 10 font, on the first line, but if I try a second line and change the font, it is fine until I click away. Then it reverts to white and grows in size.
I updated SL2 yesterday and this is a brand new project.
Did you see the item Emily linked in regards to it being a known issue within Storyline 2?

Hello Anthony,
Are you referring to the text boxes in the master slides?
Please make sure you are working locally as described here. Has the occurred before, or is this the first time you have seen this? You could try following the steps listed here.
You could also share the file here to see if we can recreate the issue.

You could try importing this into a new file to see if it helps.
Ok, thanks.

Hi Ben,

Is that the issue you're running into?
Ahh yes, I just wanted to add some detail to say it was recreatable in a brand new file :). Thanks Ashley!
No worries Ben - just wanted to confirm we were all on the same page!
