Pasting text from Word
I've noticed an intermittent problem with Storyline 2 when I paste text from Word into a text box. Sometimes it pastes the same text three or four times. This happens consistently with each paste of...
Thanks for the reply.
I've narrowed down the issue a bit -- it only occurs when pasting *from a
table* in Microsoft Word. If it's just normal text in a word doc, or even
if I just highlight the text rather than the full cell, it will paste
normally.
But if you select the entire cell (unfortunately, happens kind of by

this table format for scripts.
Thanks for the helpful update, John! I'm sorry it's a bit of a speedbump for you, but I'm sure this info will help others who are finding the same behavior when pasting table text from Word.
