Setting focus to text entry box in Storyline
Hi. I think I know the answer to this, but I need to ask to make sure. I'm updating a simulation of a mainframe data system, originally recorded in Captivate six years ago. To correctly mimic the...
Hi Ashley,

Yes, I use the workaround of putting the text entry field at the bottom. But that behaviour is a clumsy workaround. In simulators, you use text boxes on top of images to simulate text entry fields. Yes, you can create a new master with a unique background image for each simulator slide. But then you have these problems:
- The work effort is significantly higher to create each master
- Backgrounds can't have their position adjusted, removing your ability to control the course appearance
- Background images get significantly compressed, resulting in lower quality products
- Master slides aren't intended to be used this way, so when you want to properly use master slides for templating, you have to sift through long lists of workaround master slides
Can you see why I'm asking for this issue to be addressed?
