Adjust text variables Storyline 360
Hi everyone,
I have a project that required translation (into Japanese in this particular case), and I couldn't come across a solution to edit the text for the variable's text itself.
This is the variable:
This is the text displaying in the Review, and as an example, I would need to move up the dot, or move down some characters (as per legibility purposes).
Is there a way to add some line breaks to this feedback text? It is not possible to edit it from the Usage for variable ... windows.
I'm using the latest update available for Windows 10, x64
Thank you!

In addition to editing the default value of the text variable like Jesse demonstrated, you can also set up a trigger to adjust the value of the variable when needed. See attached.

Edit it like on the left.
It will show on your panel like top right.
In your preview mode it will be like bottom right.

Hi, I guess I'm failing to find where to edit the Feedback variable's text. I can see it here but it is not editable, so I'm trying to see where can I edit that. Thank you!

Hi everyone, thank you for your input! Where exactly should I apply these line breaks? As per client's request, we need to deliver the published files for LMS and the Review360.
Thank you so much for your help!

Enter the line break tag (<br>) wherever you want the line break to appear in the text you assign to your variable. In some cases, you might want a blank line inserted so you would insert <br><br> at that point in the text.
Depending on the language, font, font size and the width of your text box, you will likely have to do some trial and error to discover the best place in the text to insert the line breaks.
