Text box goes off the page.

Jul 27, 2015

Recently I uploaded a Storyline with several lines of text on the one page. When I view it in preview and as a published file the text fits neatly on the page.

See below:

Working

 

However, several students found that when they look at it online the text runs off the page.

See below:

Broken

Does anyone know why this could be happening?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Hi Chris,

The issue is due to the story size and your desktop resolution mismatch. I encountered the same issue in one of my projects.

Just try these steps to resolve the issue.

  • Go to player properties
  • Click the other settings
  • Go to browser settings and from the player size dropdown select Scale player to fill browser window.

Thank you for asking this Chris, as I have had the same issue happen in my courses!

If I may also offer two suggestions...

There's a typo in your scenario. It should read, "changing the resident's clothes" (with the apostrophe before the letter s).

Also, I believe true/false works better with statements than with questions. Maybe consider rewording it as, "True or False: This resident's rights have been upheld."

I hope you don't mind the suggestions, and again, thanks for asking the text question since I have been having the same issue with my courses!
