- Hi everyone!I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (Build 3.70.29211.0)! In this update, we've released the fix for the bug where text boxes that animate by paragraph might not load consistently.Now all you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app! If you run into any issues, please reach out to us by submitting a support case!
I've seen this issue too and while it isn't ideal to have to do so, removing the 'animated by paragraph' instruction and reapplying it seems to clear the bug for me.
HI, you mean that removing the "animated by paragraph" from the menu and reapplying it do the thing? If so, this is one more workaround, which does not exactly solve the core problem. Thanks anyway!
That's what I meant yes.
I agree, it's a workaround, but sometimes these workarounds are life savers when we're working to a deadline.
Yes, that's how it goes and I appreciate this tip! Would still be nice to understand how we could prevent this issue beforehand.
Thanks!
That's good to know. Easiest workaround I've found is to open up the dropdown of the text in the timeline, and move each paragraph's timeline object back and forward. This seems to force Articulate to re-render the text animation.
It's extremely frustrating and time consuming to do this every time I publish a course, especially if its to SCORM and I have to watch the entire module to make sure the text hasn't messed up.
It's been happening for the better part of a year now, and it's costing me A LOT of time to fix each time.I agree that workarounds are great in a pinch! This workaround doesn't always work for me in the last project. I haven't tried it with a different project.

I've been doing this and it does not work. It will later break upon publishing and even if it does work, then a new slide will break.
