HTML 5 Player - Drag and drop bug

Jan 03, 2019

I published a course in Storyline 360 using the Modern player and had several reports that the drag and drop reviews did not work. When dropped onto the target, the draggers just snapped back to the list. The issue was in both IE and Chrome. I republished using the Classic player with Flash/HTML5  fallback, and it works.

As a side note, so far I have published 4 courses in the modern player to our LMS, and 3 of them have had issues of one kind or another. So at this point, we are recommending that we use the Classic player.

Hi, Scott. So sorry that's happening!

Any chance the drop target has any transparency? We spotted an issue with Storyline 360's HTML5 output where drag items return to the start point if the drop target is an image with 100% transparency. 

If that matches your setup, you can work around this bug by setting the main slide layer to Resume saved state instead of Automatically and replacing the image with a shape with 100% transparency.

If that's not quite right, would you be able to share your drag and drop slide with me here? You can use this link if the content is private. I'll give it a test in a similar environment and let you know what I find!
