Storyline 360 Text Styles: My Evaluative Experience so far...
I come from a graphic design background and paragraph/character styles were just baseline. So I was really pumped when Articulate introduced this. I use them quite a bit, but the current frustration is similar to so many other things in Storyline... works better in theory than in practice. Lately, I'm experiencing paragraph styles overriding each other if they're in the same text box. But splitting heads and body text into separate text boxes would just negate any benefit.
It is a handy feature for making global changes to styles in a project, so you don't have to hunt down every instance. But if you import a slide from another project with the same-named styles but different attributes, it gets kind of dicey.
Agree with the above, so much of the improvements Articulate makes seem half-baked and not adequately tested before being rolled out. But hey, at least with this latest build we can disable the automatic scroll bars on overflow text.
