Trouble Animating Text Added To Placeholder Oct 19, 2015 By Maggie Cowan In Storyline 2, when I add a text box on a slide and animate it, I see the options to animate by first level paragraph or all at once. When I add text to a placeholder from the Master Slide and animate it, I don't have the additional options. Is it possible to animate text entered into a placeholder by first level paragraph or do I need to recreate the text boxes on each slide?
