web object covered the glossary and attachment menu problem

anyone can help?

Hi Joyce

Does the web object need to be that big? Is it just displaying a link to their certificate or is it doing something else?

Hi Joyce, this should fix it http://www.builtbyburton.com/?p=430

Hi Phil,

Yes, I've tried to add webObjectLockFix already and you can see my screenshot #3. The webObjectLockFix2.0 cannot work and shows the result as my screenshot #2. Do you have any idea on it?

Hi Blair,

The web object cannot make to be smaller because the text is dynamic written on the page. Besides, the glossary page is full of page from the bottom, so that it is no advantage even only displaying a link.

Sorry never looked at your screenshots, you are using a custom skin and David's fix might not work because of this

Hi,

i too face this problem. i am using a custom Template.i gave a link of a video as webObject.   After loading the webobject video when we click Attachment or Exit ,the video overlaps the options of attachemnt and Exit.

webObjectLockFix doesnt help in this overlapping. it just make the video to disappear and reload again when i close the attachement.

i want the user to click the attachement without affecting the webobject video and viceversa.

is there a solution for this? Please help..

Hi,

I did have this problem with Articulate '09 and when I inserted the webObjectLockFix v2, it worked fine; the attachment/exit drop down appeared in front of the webobject. 

However, I have Articulate '13 now and the webObjectLockFix doesn't work anymore.  The webobject layer is now back to covering the menu dropdowns. 

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this layering in Articulate 13?

and Does anyone know if this is still happening in Articulate 360?

Thanks,

Nancy

Hi Nancy,

When you're hovering over a web object or interacting with its content, the web object will move to the top layer of the slide. When your mouse cursor is no longer positioned over it, the web object will return to its original placement.

As a result, any other items on the slide that you've layered on top of the web object will be temporarily hidden or obscured while you're interacting with the web object. They return to focus when your mouse cursor is no longer over the web object. This is still the case within Studio '13. The change you mentioned above was not something that we could offer support for, so I'd have to defer to the community for that.

For Studio 360, you'll see a bit of a different behavior based on the publish option you choose and how you're viewing the content. 

HTML5: Objects layered on top of website videos and web objects will always remain in front of videos/web objects in HTML5 output.

Flash: Due to a limitation in the Flash Player, website videos and web objects will temporarily move to the front of the slide when learners hover over or interact with them. When learners are no longer hovering over website videos or web objects, they'll return to their original positions behind other objects on the slide.

Thanks for the info Ashley.  We've been thinking about changing over to 360.  I'll add this to the list of pros for the change.  Thanks!

Sorry community, I should mention that I'm using Presenter '13 and not Storyline.

Thanks

No worries Nancy - you said Studio '13 and 09 - Storyline follows the conventions of Storyline 1 and 2, and this was the Presenter side of the forum!  Same behavior occurs within Storyline as well though for anyone else following along.
