Text Randomly Shrinks While Typing

Apr 22, 2023

While I am typing in a text box, the text constantly changes size. When I am typing a word it is larger, then I hit space and it shrinks, then I start typing the next word and it goes large again. I wound up with a weird situation where the first line was larger and the second and third were longer even though they were all the same font size and I couldn’t fix it. Even making the text box much larger than need for the font didn’t help.

Hi Natalie,

I'm happy to help troubleshoot this weird behavior with the text. We can start by checking if you're working on your local drive; working on a network drive can cause erratic behavior. If the problem still happens, try running these steps to repair Storyline.

We'd be glad to investigate further if the problem persists. You may share your Storyline project here or privately in a support case so we can take a look. We'll delete it when we're done testing.
