Captivate 2017 Word Search: Answer Clues

Hello,

I've created a Word Search in Captivate with 7 questions. No matter what I do, the answer clues are cut off, and the user is unable to see the full list of questions when scrolling. I've tried shorter questions, removing questions, changing the text size, changing the puzzle size, different templates, checking and unchecking the "scale text for responsive projects" option.

Thanks for your help! Jen

    Hi There,

    The answer clues can only be on one line. When you create the word search and click generate and an answer clue extends to a second line, that's the problem. Unfortunately, you will have to use few characters for each answer clue for it to correctly display all seven word choices.

    Screenshots would help us see the problem.

    Here's a redacted screen shot. There are 7 questions, but only 6.5 are displaying, and I'm at the bottom of the scroll bar. Thank you!

    I think this is probably because your answer clues cannot exceed a given number of characters.  It's probably not all that generous.  These Learning Interactions are quite limited in most respects and not customisable at all.

    What happens if you reduce your answer clue text considerably?
