I see several threads about this but no solutions that I can find at least.
\n
I have a transcript that the learner can display on screen. The scrolling panel is on the master slide, and the text for the transcript is stored in a variable audio_text that is updated on each slide and displayed in the scrolling panel.
\n
The text is so small as to be basically unreadable in the scrolling panel. I've formatted the text box to not autofit and not shrink the text, but when I try to do that in the scrolling panel, all formatting choices are grayed out.
\n
The text box is only as long as the name of the variable. I tried adding carriage returns to 'grow' the box and that allows the text to display at the proper size. However, those CRs are still in the text box so the learner scrolls down to a lot of empty space. If the learner returns to that screen, the scrolling panel looks blank because the text is all at the top. And sometimes there are a number of blank lines at the top of the panel??
\n
I really want to leave the transcript on the master slide and just change the text on the individual slides. Is there a way to do that?
Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I have to report that as of the latest version of Storyline (v3.57.26476.0), this bug still exists.
\n
I have a long, concatenated variable string of results at the end of my project. When placed in a large text box with \"Do not autofit\" selected, it works as expected. The text size matches the size of the input in Storyline.
\n
When that same text box is placed inside a scrolling panel, the text output becomes unreadably small. This is a pretty serious bug, as it is now impossible for me to display the results text of my project in a legible way that accounts for a varying string size.

Rob have you tried upgrading the text on your project? and then adding the scrollbar in the text properties? I think this should fix the issue.
That's what I did and it's perfect!
\n
For those like who didn't understand right away how to do that: select your text box, go to format panel and open the shape styles properties. In the text box tab, you have a button allowing you to upgrade the text on your project. Once upgraded, you can select the fixed size in autofit and then add scroll bars in overflow handling.
\n
Simple as that !
\n
Have a great day,
Lucie
