issue with table borders in articulate storyline 360

Hi folks,

anyone having issues with the border looking correct when you are making a table in Storyline 360?  The table looks fine when I build it, but in Preview or in Articulate Review it looks thinner or not there at all and only a a section of it.

This is an example of my issue -  click the View Table button to see the Table, and I put a red rectangle around the area for me that is not showing the 4x border thickness.  But sometimes I find it goes halfway and sometimes only the first cell gets the 4x thickness the rest is thin.

I didn't put in full course just the slide with the table.

Thanks

Teresa

  • Have you tried publishing to see what it looks like? I see the anomaly only in the PC preview; it looks correct in the mobile device previews. Could be a bug in the PC preview.

      Hi Teresa

      I noticed something similar yesterday when I added a border to a table.  I had to turn the border off, then turn 'all borders on' then change the weight and do that a couple of times for it to work. Eventually it did - not ideal but worked for me.

  • I am sure I tried that several times, I turned it on, and then off, then did just the right border, and sometimes it would actually show 85% of the proper border, but each time I viewed it looked a little different, so I think it might be a bug :(

  • Hi Teresa,

    Thanks for sharing your file - I'll admit my eyes are bad, so I wanted you to check what I'm seeing. Here it the course published to Review, and a screenshot of preview. These don't look different than what I'm seeing while on the slide editing. 

    Can you take a look and let me know? If that looks normal for you, I published with the latest update to Storyline 360, Update 12. So you'll want to make sure you're also on the latest update! 

  • thanks Ashley, I am on 3.11, I see now there is an update available.  Maybe it fixed it.  I looked today and it was still showing some of the thick line only and then I would do it again and it would show more.  I will upgrade now and see how it shows in Preview.  Thanks.

  • Hi guys,

    I am experiencing the same issues with the table borders. It looks fine in Storyline 360, but when previewed, the borders looks a little fainted out, and there are also weird streak lines showing when there isn't suppose to be any. Please let me know how I can fix this.

    Thanks in advance!

      Hello Zi!

      Thank you for including screenshots! It looks like this is specific to a table that you have in your course. Have you set the header cells to have no border?

      Do you mind sharing a .story file so I can better understand what you've created in Storyline?
