Text Box Characteristics

My issue is with text boxes changing the size of text when you click inside the box. This seems to be something that has been carried over from Powerpoint that I have never understood. Who would want to click into a text box to edit it and have it preview the text differently than what it really will show when I'm done editing? Example:
Notice that the line breaks in a different spot and the text looks bolder when not editing. In terms of typography, design, and layout this is a major annoyance. Does anyone know if there is some purpose to this feature of PPT/Storyline?

This is a known issue with Storyline and, as you say, a major annoyance. If you view your slide at 100% you shouldn't see this problem. But at any other resolution the text is going to jump around all over the place.
Thanks for flagging the 100% view workaround, Brett. There have been times when it has been all but impossible for me to some text on the page precisely. This will help in those instances.
