Player Loads Modern and Prohibits Classic

Mar 05, 2024

Recently, we started having an issue with player. We could not switch over from modern to classic. The error message it gave was Present Layer as a Dialog.  Opening a new file, I noticed It automatically loads the modern player without asking and does not allow to switch over to classic. 

After troubleshooting, I came to the conclusion that whenever a new storyline file is selected, it automatically loads the modern feedback. Having these feedback slides prohibits the switch to classic player. 

I did two things to figure this out. First, I loaded a clean version of player with the classic and it remained classic. Second, when I loaded a new file, it had the modern feedback layers, and did not allow me to switch over to the classic. So after deleting the modern feedback layers, I was able to switch over. There is an issue with the modern feedback layers.  

Please fix this.

Thank you.

Hi Michele, 

To switch the Player back so that it uses the Classic version, you'll need to first change the slide properties of the feedback layers in the Feedback Master View from Dialog to Layers. You'll want to make sure that none of your feedback layers use the 'Dialog' option.
