Storyline 360 text is cut off in some boxes in Review 360 (Chrome)

May 14, 2020

Hello all,

My client is experiencing an issue where the some text is cut off when viewing the module in google chrome through Storyline 360.

This doesn't appear for me, and it doesn't appear in IE.

Anyone else have this problem / know how to fix it?

Thanks!

Lauren

Hi Lauren!

Sorry to hear your client is running into that. Let's see if we can find a trend:

  • What version of Chrome are they using to view the content?
  • Does the text cut out on certain slides?

If you're able to share the .story file for testing, that would be super! You can send it privately to me through this secure link. I'll publish it to Review 360 and let you know what I see!

Hi,

I have the very same problem - but simply with course created in Storyline 360 and viewed on chrome. The version of chrome is 83.0.4103.116 - the newest update. And this effect appears randomly. In one package some of the callouts are cut and after publishing again - other.

I tried checking the different text options - to autofit shape, to do not autofit. Nothing works.

Hi Anna,

Thanks for sharing those details. A few questions to help troubleshoot:

  • Are you publishing to your LMS or a web server?
  • How are you storing your course when you view it? 

It sounds like you may be viewing this locally, and if so, check out this article that provides some tips on properly viewing a published course:

Hey there Lauren.  My name is Rob Rode and I'm a Sr. Instructional Designer/storyline developer and I recently came across your post concerning text display issues w/ 360 and Chrome.  Question: would you mind sending me a copy of your storyline file?  I ask because while I know you may have begun working w/ the folks here, I too have seen instances of this issue, but I've also had a "workaround" that may/may not be useful.  One way that I can test my theory about this is to look at your .story file and determine if what I'm doing might be of some help as well.
