Rounded corner inconsistency
Hi HoneyTurner,
Thanks for laying this out so clearly. I can see how frustrating it must be to run into this issue.
You’re spot on about what’s happening. Shapes created before the rounded corner update can still carry their old fixed values under the hood. When you copy formatting, Storyline interprets those values as percentages, which redraws the corners differently.
Your workaround of toggling off “Use Percentages” and then reapplying the value is the right way to normalize those older shapes.
Another option that might save time is to recreate one clean shape with the correct corner radius using the current rounded corner tool, then duplicate it for your different states. That way, everything is based on the new system and stays consistent.
Let me know how it goes! If you’d like more targeted help, please feel free to open a support case so we can look at other possible solutions.

I'm not sure recreating and duplicating is going to be efficient. but, recreating one, then using it to copy/paste the format might work.
