Grey Screen At Start
Jan 25, 2021
I have created several projects in Storyline 3 but my last two are showing a grey screen at the start, that when the mouse hovers over the center of the screen it changes to select mode. When then selecting the screen, the presentation runs normally.
I initially thought this was a LMS issue but when I launch the presentation from “story.html or story_html5.html” files the screen appears.

Does that first slide/page have media on it (audio or video) which plays when the timeline starts? Web browsers no longer allow for that:

Thanks for that
I saw a post about this problem in SL2, applied that to this issue and have solved it.
I do not understand why two out of seven are having an issue and the other five are not when using the same audio on each first screen!!!
the issue is closed for me - thanks again.
