Adding scrollbar to text entry field in Storyline 360
I have some courses that I originally built in Storyline 2. Some of the slides contain text-entry fields that gain scrollbars once the text begins to overflow.
I have recently moved these courses over to SL360 and the text-entry fields no longer gain a scrollbar, instead the text runs out of the field (see pic).
Is there a way to easily add scrollbars back on to the text-entry fields that I'm missing?
This also happens in a newly created SL360 course so isn't related to converting SL2 to SL360.
Thanks!

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.
