Default font for Notes
How do I change the default font for notes? I don't want to have to change them manually for each slide.
Hello all!
If you're still subscribed to this discussion, I wanted to share that the feature mentioned has been released! In Storyline 360 (Build 3.85.31840.0), you can now instantly update the formatting of all slide notes in your project.
From here, all you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app!
If you run into any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Support team in a support case.

Yeah I need to to be able to change the font size for all notes it is tiny and light grey for some reason. Is there seriously no way to change this?
- CarolLogieCommunity Member
I'm a plus one on this too. Light grey size 9 pt is wayyyy too small. Would love to be able to see an editable option for this in the player maybe?

You would think this would be a basic function like in PowerPoint. Please put my 2 cents in on this subject.

+1. Add the functionality to slide master.

+1 from me also. I spend so much time changing the font to something I can read without having to zoom in.
Hi Kyle,
You can modify the notes formatting on a slide by slide basis - but it sounds like you're looking for a master change throughout all your slides?
That's not something we've added yet, but always interested in other ideas for new Storyline features.

Hi James,
This feature request was not added to the latest version and hasn't made it to the top of the roadmap, but we are still monitoring it and listening to feedback!
I'll be sure to add you as a plus one to the report and update this discussion with any progress that's been made. If you're curious, here's a bit more about how we work to prioritize feature requests.
- KyleMullaneyCommunity Member
Features requests seems a poor way to prioritize changes.
- it is an extra step that people must take and a step that has no meaningful feedback. From my experience it seems like an ineffective step. We tend to get more meaningful feedback when making a comment here than when sending in a feature request as there is no follow up system.
- It takes a bit of effort for every potential change we want made.
- It is an unnatural break in workflow, when someone is looking for a solution.
- It is simply not transparent. There is no way to know what has traction and what doesn't.
- There is no obvious way to track what requests I have already made. Nor is there a way to renew prior request and say, "I still want this."
- There is no way for Articulate to effectively communicate with all who have expressed a desire for that change.
i.e. How many threads are there about having bullet points in slide masters?
I could go on.
A useful solution to some of these issues would be a voting/ranking system similar to what other companies like Microsoft or Logos use. Such systems allow company staff to mark the status of requests.
*Also note how many people there want a dark mode.That is a request I have made here but cannot remember if it has been made as a feature request or not.

+1 also, please. This takes a ridiculous amount of time to fix in each slide. It’s where we put our scripts for review, and so we have a lot of text to format. 9-point grey on black is not easily readable for most people.
- RodgerKlarerCommunity Member
Agreed! It makes it hard to read the notes when working in Storyline - and waaaaaaaaaaaay too much MANUAL time fixing it up in the Word output that needs to go to others for review.
- DaveGutterud-6aCommunity Member
+1 from me too. The more I work with Storyline the more frustrated I get at the time consuming things I have to do to get little things accomplished.
