States of an Object in Storyline 360
Yesterday, I noticed that when I was working on adding states to an object, the object appeared much smaller in the Normal and New State box. Up until yesterday, the object, always appeared to fill the box and look like the size it was on the slide. Today, I tried to change the state of a freeform object and the object was so tiny, I couldn't see it at all. I noticed there was a plus sign that appeared on the top left hand corner of the object on the slide, that I hadn't seen before either. This made me wonder, if I turned on a setting that is causing this problem. Does anyone know why this is happening and/or how to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Kelly
I see that if I have pasted something else inside the state
As Phil suggested, if you paste additional objects into a state, then the state thumbnail will shrink all of state's content to fit. It's especially noticeable if you include something far away from the main object. It can also be a hint that you included something into your state that you did not mean to.
The small plus is a register mark, and indicates the top left corner of the original object's area. If you edit a state and delete the original content, the register can help you realign the position of new content.
