    Hi Everyone!

    I'm happy to share that we just released a new update for Storyline 360!

    In version 3.107.35958.0 we included essential fixes and new features. One of the bugs we’ve fixed is:

    • A scrollbar didn't appear as expected when text overflowed

     

    Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.

    Please let us know if you have any questions!

I havealso just tried to use a text entry which allows multiple lines of text. Can confirm that:

  • MODERN PLAYER: the scroll bar does not appear when text is long enough (e.g. has multiple lines).
  • CLASSIC PLAYER: the scroll bar appears as expected.

Given this issue is at least 6 years old and it clearly states just a few replies above this one that "unlikely to be fixed", I think the classic-fix is likely the only fix. It's pretty shoddy.
