Dynamically format text in your courses by adjusting variables. Storyline 360 builds 3.27.18751.0 and later support the following HTML tags in text variables. You can include these tags in the initial value of a variable, or you can add the tags later by using a trigger that adjusts the value of a text variable. Want to see it in action?

Bold Text

Enclose text in <b></b> tags to make it bold. For example, a variable with a value of <b>Storyline 360</b> becomes Storyline 360 in published output.

Italicized Text

Enclose text in <i></i> tags to make it italicized. For example, a variable with a value of <i>Storyline 360</i> becomes Storyline 360 in published output.

Line Break

Add a <br> tag to add a line break to a text string. For example, a variable with a value of Storyline<br>360 spans two lines of text in published output.

Font Color

Enclose text in <font color="#xxxxxx"></font> tags to change the font color. For example, a variable with a value of <font color="#ff0000">Storyline 360</font> becomes Storyline 360 in published output.
