We have recently obtained a 360 video camera. I have inserted a 360 video into a Storyline slide but I do not get the ability to control the viewing angle within Storyline. Is this a limitation of Storyline (I am not able to use it with IE either, only Firefox). Is there a way to get around this issue?
I'm sure I could, however, we have both IE and Firefox on our computers. It won't work in IE and I don't think there is a way to force a specific browser in the web object assignment.
There isn't a way to force a user to open a course or the web object in a particular browser, but if you're able to place it as a web object you could instruct them that you recommend viewing in Firefox based on the video not working in Internet Explorer.

I woud think a 360 degree video needs some kind of 'player' that allows for the navigation. Could you link to the video via Storyline webobject?

Hi Gary,
There isn't a way to force a user to open a course or the web object in a particular browser, but if you're able to place it as a web object you could instruct them that you recommend viewing in Firefox based on the video not working in Internet Explorer.
I posted a demo here showing how to detect the browser from within a Storyline course. You could alert the user if they're not running FF. Not sure if that helps or not: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/demo-system-and-browser-check
Thanks Mike. I did forget about that Demo. I appreciate you popping in to share.
