My feedback layer seems to be loading in stages, with the text showing up before my background. My background is a transparent png. Any idea why it's doing this?
See attached sample. (This is in HTML5 in FF, but does the same thing in IE11 with Flash)
Not sure if I figured it out, just found a workaround... Very odd little app we have here.
SL also doesn't like to resize itself if moved from one monitor to another. If I open on my monitor with my taskbar, and move it to another screen, it won't resize as if the taskbar is still there. All of my screens are the same resolution.
Can you walk me thru re-creating what you are describing? I utilize two monitors and should be able to test. I do not have issues moving Storyline from one monitor to another normally though.
Unlock your Windows taskbar and drag it up the screen a bit, so that it is larger than normal. Launch Storyline. Try dragging the SL window from one monitor to another.
This is what does on my PC: If SL originated on the monitor with the taskbar, and is dragged to a monitor without a taskbar, the SL window retains its original size and is difficult to get to fill the entire screen. If SL originated on the monitor that does not have the taskbar, and I try to drag it while maximized to the monitor with the taskbar, it won't even dock there but remains on the original monitor.
Once again, this may be somewhat of a rare working environment because I often have multiple instances of SL open so that I can copy elements from one project to another.
I've never seen any other app do this, so I'm guessing its not my PC.
Hi Mike! I appreciate you sharing the details. I can see where on first pass it wants to retain the previous size, but a simple double click adjustment alleviates this for me. I'm not seeing the same thing with other programs though, like you mentioned. I will share this with our team for further review.
Thanks. I have to go through quite a few gyrations of un-maximizing, re-sizing, trying to re-maximize before I can get it to fill the screen again. Just a little oddity that takes me out of the zone sometimes. :)
Looks like other users have already reported previously. I will add this thread for our QA Team :) Thanks again Mike! Hope we can get you to minimum gyrations.

Nevermind. I replaced my png with a similar rectangle object created with SL and it loads fine now.
Glad that you were able to get this figured out Mike and thanks for sharing your solution with the community :)

If you'd like me to take a look, you can share your .story file.
Um, that has nothing to do with my story file. Do you have more than one monitor? If so, you should be able to see this behavior. I using Windows 7.
