Continued issues with text running off slide
I know this issue has been brought up before but it continues to persist and seems to be getting worse. We are using Storyline 360 on local computers. When we use a text placeholder from the Master ...
Hello Everyone!
I wanted to share some great news! We are no longer seeing the bug that caused text boxes to break after applying a built-in theme in projects imported from PowerPoint to Storyline.
Please make sure that you are using the current version of Storyline 360 (3.72.29699.0).
To confirm or update your version of Storyline 360:
- Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your Windows machine.
- Click the drop-down arrow next to Storyline 360 and select Other Versions.
- Here you will see the current version being used, or have the option to update.
Please let us know if you're still encountering the issue and we'd be happy to continue troubleshooting with you in a support case.
Allison: I seem to recall that the 16:9 widescreen setting in PowerPoint was part of the problem.
Sorry, if I wasn't clear. The 16:9 widescreen setting in PowerPoint is too wide for Storyline so these wide text boxes would carry over creating a less than desired result. So once, resetting to the old 4:3 setting there is usually a little resizing to be done in PowerPoint before importing. Then, import. Obviously, I wouldn't spend too much time on that before running a test import. You will definitely want to have a backup of your original widescreen PowerPoint just in case.
Crossing my fingers for you. Good luck.
