Active area for triggered button shifts when project published
Nov 30, 2017

I have set up a simple branching sequence in a Storyline 2 scene from a slide. The learner will jump to specified slides when he/she clicks on either of two buttons. The sequence previews as expected. When I publish the project, however, the active area on the screen for the click action shifts entirely away from the buttons--to the right and slightly down. I have the player settings to "resize browser to fill screen" and "scale player to fill browser window". I saw the discussion from 2 years ago about ensuring Windows DPI display settings were not other than 100%. I tried that suggestion, but the problem persists. Does someone have a solution?

After further troubleshooting, this issue seems to be related to use of the Microsoft Edge browser viewing content published with Storyline 2. Note also that this experience may be encountered when learners are presented with an active button to "Resume" a course where they left off.
A colleague who has upgraded to Storyline 3 published the project for me. I was able to view the published course using Edge without the issue--the active hot spots were aligned with the button objects.
Hi Denver and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
Glad you were able to get that figured out and I appreciate you popping in with an update.
Microsoft Edge is not a supported browser for viewing Storyline 2 output as you can see in this documentation.
I had the same problem. Thanks for figuring this out!
Glad that this thread was able to help you out as well, Duane.
Thanks for chiming in to share and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
