Text Entry Direction

Apr 29, 2013

Hi,

just a quick one. Is there any way for a text entry to be used so that text is typed vertically as opposed to horizontally. I'm trying to make a "Label the axes on a graph" activity. In Storyline I can change the text direction, as seen in the pic, but in the published or previewed output the direction reverts to horizontal.

Any help appreciated.

Steve

thanks. I'm having to change my activity type, but at least I don't think I'm crazy anymore!

I am having the same issue as well, was this ever resolved?

Hi Tiffany,

Thanks for reaching out! This discussion is a bit older, but currently in Storyline 360, the option to rotate a text entry has been disabled, so you will not be able to accomplish something similar to what was discussed before.

This discussion below shares some ideas of how you can create an alternative to it by using a layer!

I need to rotate a text entry field 90 degrees. Can I?
