Course screen larger than Browser window

Jan 29, 2013

Having a problem with IE8 and Storyline.
The course screen fits correctly when viewed in Storyline preview but is too large when the learner actually launches the course from the web site. Generally, the PREV and NEXT buttons are hidden at first view.

I tried different combinations of the settings, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

 I searched for Browser size in the Storyline archives, but don't see this exact dilemma.

Currently, I have these settings

Browser size:  Resize browser to optimal size

Player size: Lock player at optimal size

(Had to reduce View to 88% to fit into browser window)

Have also tried

Browser size; Display at user's current browser size

Player size: Scale player to fill browser window

(In this case, if they maxixmize the window they can see the buttons)

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks, Jon, but I don't want to force the learner to completely give up their screen to the course.

The best settings so far are

Browser size; Display at user's current browser size

Player size: Scale player to fill browser window

And with the addition of

Launch player in new window

Allow user to resize browser

the user has a reasonable amount of control.

Peter, this is an acceptable outcome -- thanks for the support.
