3622953 - Radio button text is displayed superimposed in canvas stories using viewer lite mode in SAP Analytics Cloud.

Symptom

  • When opening SAP Analytics Cloud Canvas stories in the Viewer Lite mode, the text of radio button options unexpectedly appears overlapped.
  • This behavior differs from what is seen in Edit mode, where the text is displayed as expected.

Environment

SAP Analytics Cloud.

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Log in to SAC.
  2. Open a Canvas story in Edit mode.
  3. Locate a radio button component and note that the text appears correctly positioned.
  4. Switch to Viewer Lite mode.
    >> Observe that the text of the radio button options appears superimposed, making it difficult to read.

Cause

  • The "Canvas Content Layout" option, found under Page Layout -> Canvas Size, is set to "Center Aligned".
  • This setting causes all content within the canvas to be horizontally centered at runtime, regardless of its original position in the edit mode, which may result in overlapping elements such as radio button text in Viewer Lite mode.

Resolution

Set the "Canvas Content Layout" option to "Fit to Device". This setting ensures that the content, including images and radio button text, retains its intended position in Viewer Lite mode, without being automatically centered.
