I would like to use an illustrated character in the pose that it looks like they're holding a poster. When I recolor the poster to make it transparent so I can put an image behind, Storyline automatically re-sizes the character to be tiny in Preview mode. I attached an example. There are 2 slides in the example, the only difference between the 2 is that on the 2nd one, the poster area is made transparent. Preview the file to see the resizing issue. Please help!
I looked at your file, and did some testing on a new file and saw the same behavior. I sent this along to our Quality Assurance team for review, although I don't have an update to share in regards to when it may be fixed so I'd recommend using another method on your files for now.

Hi Margot,
Thanks for sharing the file - can you share the steps you went through to change the poster to be transparent?
To make the poster transparent:
1.) Select the Character
2.) On the Format Tool bar, click the drop-down arrow next to Recolor
3.) Click "Set transparent color"
4.) Click the poster that the Character is holding
