I'm puzzled by what's happening in the attached flipchart. I was trying to do a closed excercise for the first time and came across the problem with regard to keywords and containers. I set up this simple flipchart and the same thing seems to happen. When dragging the word 'expands' into the top box , it stays in position, anywhere else it goes back to where it started,but when I do the same with the word 'dense' (set up in the same way) to the lower green box - I cannot make it stay!!

Any help would be appreciated, many thanks.

Hi there,

Welcome to the forum. I have had a play with your flipchart, the reason that 'dense' will not stay in the box is because it is too big for the box. If you look at the size of the invisible text box (by clicking on the word) you will see that it is the same size as the green box, so if you don't get the word in exactly the right place it thinks it is too big. If you make the green box larger or the text smaller it works perfectly!
