i've never seen these results, but when I publish my content, select "view project" i only see a button labeled "Launch". I'm not sure why or how to view my content. anyone?
Is it possible that you inadvertently selected the "Launch player in a new window" option in the player properties? Selecting this option would display a "Launch button'.
Hi there. I have the same issue. All our previous courses that we published with SL1 had the "Launch player in new window" option selected. We never saw the Launch screen. We recently changed to SL2. I just published a course with the same settings. In the LMS when I click and launch the course, two windows open: one the blank screen with the orange Launch button and the other is the course itself. We still want a new window to open when learners open the course from the LMS. But I don't want the Launch window with the orange button. Is there anything that can be done?
Make sure that in Player Properties > Other, the option 'Launch Player in new window (creates launch page' is NOT selected. Then in your LMS, there should be an option you can set to open a course in a new window.
We would like the user to be able to resize the window, but if we deselect the option to "Launch in new window," the content window produced by our LMS (PeopleSoft's ELM) produces a static window that cannot be resized.
We could have the option to launch in a new window enabled in SL1 without getting the extra "Launcher" window. Why doesn't it work correctly in SL2?

Sorry, I have no idea about your LMS and/or its limitations. If changing the player properties does not create the expected results, then I would submit a support case with Articulate.
