Text Entry Field - formatting question

I have added a text entry field to my Storyline 360 project. I formatted the text as needed including setting to align to the middle (and center) of the textbox. When I preview the entire project, the text aligns to the bottom of the box. I have used this before and haven't had this issue, but in the last couple of projects, this it how it behaves. Any ideas on how to make this operate correctly? Screenshot below for additional context.

    This is a bug in the latest version. Additionally, if the text is formatted to be centered and you then uncheck the 'Multiline' option, you won't be able to switch back to top alignment, even though it can still be selected from the Vertical Alignment dropdown. This issue occurs on all types of slides where a TextEntry element is inserted.

        Hi AmyBriffa!

         

        Sorry to hear you've run into this setback when formatting Text Entry fields in Storyline!

         

        Glad to see Nedim has been helping you. I can confirm we have this behavior logged as a bug in Storyline 360. This bug causes Text Entry fields to display characters in offset positions when previewed or published. I've linked this discussion to the bug report so we can notify you as soon as a fix is in place.

         

        Thank you for your patience. I'm sorry if this has been slowing you down!
