Built in player control position problems

Aug 14, 2020

I need the built in player prev and next buttons to be bigger than 100%. When I set the font size to be larger (125%), it seems to also enlarge the distance from the viewing area. When I changed it back to 100%, the controls just get smaller but are still off to the side now. It's maddening. I've checked that the slide size and content are the same: 16:9, 1000 x 562. Please don't tell me to make my own controls, we just don't have the bandwidth to do that. Any ideas?

Hi Carol, the distance between the controls at the bottom of the slide and the slide content is determined by the available width of the screen and aspect ratio of the content. For example, opening and closing the menu will move the slide content up (menu open) as the content has less width and down (menu closed) when the content can expand more. This looks to be the case in the screen grab you have posted. In one of the screen grabs the player has expanded full width allowing the 16:9 content width to sit lower and closer to the controls.
