I inserted a text entry box where students enter a short answer to be later retrieved. When I try to display the text that was entered, the font size is microscopic. I have tried to format the text box several time using several font sizes, and the results are the same. Is there a specific way to format the text box or the variable TextEntry?
This is a silly question - but is the text box you are using to display the student's text large enough? I am asking because In my modules the text size automatically shrinks with the size of the text box.

Welcome to the forums, Jose.
It should take the original formatting you used. I'd suggest:
1. Create a new text variable: and set the formatting, say Articulate font at 24 points. See what happens when you input the text and review.
The text box is 400pix in width. The height sets automatically. Font size is 14 pts.
i would set the height manually it sounds like it is shrining the text to fit
Thanks all for your suggestions and help. Looks like setting the text box height manually did the trick.
Thanks again,
Jose
