Why do my text boxes have scrollbars?

Hi Christophe and Julia,

I replied in this discussion here but wanted to relay that we appreciate you taking the time to express the troubles you've experienced, and we're looking into them. Here's a recap of what we've seen so far:

When a project is upgraded to use text autofit enhancements, unexpected scroll bars sometimes appear. These scrollbars are due to text areas having extra lines, text, or other elements that overflow the bounds or margins of the shape.

These tips will help avoid these issues:

• Remove blank lines at the end of the text box: Check that the end of your text is indeed the end; otherwise, Storyline will assume that an extra line needs to be read, and a scroll bar will appear.
• Remove extra margin space in the text within shapes: Extra margin space can cause text to overflow the bounds of the shape. Remove that extra margin space by right-clicking on the shape and formatting the Text Box to remove unnecessary margins.
