Text displays beyond textbox (possible bug??)

Can somebody from Storyline please find a fix for this issue?

Since Friday all of my courses suddenly have a large handful of slides with text running beyond the textbox. 

Anyone else experiencing this, please comment below. Very frustrating.

  • Hi, Irene.

    Thank you for sharing the screenshot!

    If you right-click the text box and choose Format Shape, you should be able to select the behavior you want the text box to have with longer text. Which option do you currently have selected?

    You will see different options depending on whether you've enabled text autofit improvements or not, but take a look at the article below for their descriptions:

    I hope this helps!

  • have you (auto)updated on friday to a new version of storyline,
    if yes you can downgrade to an older version and test your textboxes

      I already spent an hour speaking to support and they said there was no solution. Please see the transcripts from case 03299106 and 03299137

  • Hello Irene! 

     I understand that it is frustrating to not have a solution to your issue. I've reached out to our Support Engineers to help investigate further. Mick will be in touch with you shortly. 

    Have a great day!

  • another try

    how do you publish?
     - open file, publish (without any clicks between)
    or
     - open file, do some clicks oder double clicks, then publish

    (the result is different If you use "text styles", I have on open support ticket to this issue since march)

    to test this issue, close storyline after every publish - because of the publish cache
