    Hi, everyone!

    I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 76, we’ve included important fixes and new features!

    One enhancement we’ve included:

    Data-entry fields wrap text to multiple lines based on the “wrap text” option rather than the height of the field. You no longer need to make the height more than 60 pixels.

    To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.

    Please let me know if you need additional help!

Hi,

I'm experiencing a the same problem. I need the users to type required text in a field. However the text will not wrap and starts in the middle of the Text Entry box. I've set the font to 6, I have 'wrap text in shape' checked, see attached, and vertical alignment 'top.'  It is not a quiz question I'm building. It is a process simulation. I looked for the essay question mentioned above, but that seems to be allocated to quizzes.   Any suggestions?  I just want them to type in the field and it wrap.
