Text Shifts when I hit playback
Hi, I am a bit new here and am putting together a portfolio piece in Storyline, but I am in a bit of a standstill here on this slide since all of my text seems to be in place in the textbox, but when I hit the playback, it shifts.
I thought it had to do with the voice to text that I added, but when I remove it again and hit playback, all is in it's proper place for a couple seconds, and then the text automatically shifts for the rest of the clip. I have enclosed two screenshots here if anyone has any suggestions before I try to sync the speech to the text (it's not animated yet). Thank you!

Thanks for any feedback!

I've had the same problem with bulleted text, while editing everything is fine, preview and some lines of text are no longer in line and are indented further.
As I needed to publish quickly, I duplicated the text box and added the 'offending' bullet as a new text block underneath. It was a new project so I was using the most up-to-date fonts/text styling settings. The same template slide with a similar amount of text displayed fine.
Thanks for the suggestion, somehow after I animated each line to sync with the narration, it seemed to work itself out (although now one of the bullets appears to be a different size...hmmm...), but I'm still a bit perplexed as to why it happened in the first place.
Thank you so much for the idea, I will try it when it happens again!
