Storyline : Note and accents

Jul 10, 2012

When I preview my French project, in the note tab, when the last character of a world is à or é, the space between this word and the next word is hidden, like I'd never put a space.

I tested a lot of character, and this problem shows after all these characters: 

à é è ê î ô ù û  ç µ ¤ £ € § « » 

I tried three polices, same problem.

If I put a double space after these words, it publishes one space. So I could fix it like this. But is there a better way to fix it?

Hello, I encountered the same issue importing a Powerpoint file (in Storyline 360). In my opinion, the simplest and safest option is to search and replace those special characters in Powerpoint before importing in Storyline. I.E. I had the "é" which I replaced by "é".

P.S. You can test your special characters with this tool http://www.mauvecloud.net/charsets/CharCodeFinder.html

Hey there, Valentin. Thanks for bringing this to our attention and for that tip!

I'm having some trouble recreating the issue with accents in a new Storyline 360, Update 33 slide, during preview. Would you mind sharing a sample .story or PowerPoint file with me so I can take a closer look? You can share it publicly here, or send it to me privately by using this upload link

Excited to dig deeper!
