Hi everyone, I upgraded a file made in Storyline 1 to Storyline 2 but unfortunately, the pictures and textboxes are now shifted. I checked the story size and this was changed. I set it back to the original size and everything moved, but not back to the original set-up. Does someone know how I can solve this problem?
Can you try opening the SL1 -Backup file in a new SL2 that you've set the story size to match? That would be the only way to keep elements within their same locations. Also, please note that in SL2 files one pixel will be added to the margin of text boxes as described here.
Thank you for the quick reply Ashley. I am not sure I understand correctly. Unfortunately, Storyline will not open the SL1 Backup file without upgrading it. I also upgraded some files that are very similar to the one that I am having trouble with and nothing changed. Is there anything else I can do?
Do you still have Storyline 1 installed on your system? They can be installed on the same set up, so no need to remove it. If nothing changed with other files that you upgraded, it may be specific to that one file. Can you confirm that you're working on project files as described here?

I have checked everything but it must be the file then. Thank you for your help Ashley!
