In Storyline can you globally change the font in Notes tabs only?
Hi! Apologies if this is answered elsewhere in the forum, but I couldn't find it and was spending too much time looking. In Storyline, is it possible to globally change the font in all my slides' Notes tab without changing what's on the body of the slides themselves? I imported a PPT file and based on forum tutorials, I knew my fonts might come in a bit wonky--which they did. I'm just hoping there's a quick an easy way of cleaning them up rather than going to each Notes tab of each slide individually for each of my three modules.
Does creating a Theme include the ability to specify the font/sizing for the Notes tab? I didn't see the Notes tab mentioned in the Theme instructions, but maybe I missed that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hello all!
Good news! 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.

I agree, in my case, it is WAY TOO SMALL in the notes section to read. It makes it pointless... Please add this feature.
This would be something great to have added
Thanks, Ari (and everyone) for chiming in to share your thoughts on this feature.
I wanted to share some information about how we manage these feature requests as that may be helpful.
This conversation is attached so that we can pop in and update you with any new information we have to share.
Can't believe this hasn't been addressed in 7 years! Would be a great feature, i would think this is something that could be done with a Theme or on the Master Slides. Then when you apply a master/layout it takes care of it.
It remains INSANE that this feature has not been added. And what a quintessential Articulate support thread -- people requesting a feature repeatedly over a period of *seven years*, told over and over that it's been added as a feature request, with nothing ever changing.
This is hell on my efficiency as a developer and a great example of Articulate not having enough competition.
Hi All,
Does anyone know if this been added as a feature yet?
I am currently editing a storyline file where one scene has over 50 slides alone. This is a very frustrating and time consuming task that needs to be addressed.
I also submitted a request so that when you are pasting objects from another slide it does not copy the length of the timeline. Again another time consuming task that would benefit a lot of people greatly if this was addressed.I wish this was a feature. Sadly, you can only change the font, not the size (who can really read 9 point font???).
Hi, just popping by again to say that 8 years on it remains insane that this feature doesn't exist.
Was there ever a release to globally change fonts on notes? Would be so helpful!!
This feature hasn't made it on our roadmap as we have prioritized other features for Storyline 360 updates. We will continue looking at the feature to globally change the font in the Notes tab to reevaluate its priority. I'll keep you updated in this discussion if it makes it on our roadmap.
Articulate,
Please do keep on your roadmap as it is an important feature and would be a huge timesaver!

I'm sad to hear that it hasn't made it to the roadmap yet, as I feel that this has been a problem for so long. As happy as I am to have text styles, it felt like a premature release in that this feature wasn't also available to the notes tab. 360-photos were integrated; was there a larger push for that than for global notes formatting? As much as I want .svg import or a "loop animation" trigger or focus-order-to-include-grouped-objects, I understand that this functionality affects every Storyline user. Is it really just a matter of more upvoting? The lack of progress on this front concerns me that Articulate is out of touch when it comes to prioritizing users' needs.
I love this product, and appreciate the team working on it. It takes time and is not simple. But how do we *actually* impress that this needs prioritization?
Hello Pierre!
I appreciate you taking the time to share how this feature would be impactful for you. To clarify, it's not a matter of upvoting when adding features to our roadmap. Of course, customer impact is a significant factor, but we also evaluate feature requests alongside a queue of bug fixes, new features already on the roadmap, and other projects. If a new feature makes it onto the roadmap, our team designs, develops, and tests it.
I'm sharing updated comments with my team to determine if the priority has changed. I'll circle back with you when I have more information.
