Text blinking

Hi there, I just signed up for the free trial version in order to get used to this program.  When I write in the text box, the text starts to blink automatically.  It is really disturbing not to see...

So, is there even a solution for this? Anyone?

    Hi Alba and Nejc,

    I was able to "solve" the issue by disabling the modern text feature. Go to the Design tab, click the Fonts drop-down list, and deselect Use Modern Text at the bottom.

    It worked for me, not sure it will work for you too, it really depends on what's causing the issue. For me it "might" be the fact that I am using a virtual machine. 

    Give it a try and hopefully it'll work for you too

    Best

      Thank you so much for this! This worked for me as well. I am using Parallels on Mac iOS, and this was the only thing that helped!

        Hello Mortilaine! You’re very welcome 😊

        It looks like this issue happens especially when Articulate is installed on a virtual machine that is not running on the latest iOS version. 

        I am glad that this solution is working for other people too.
