Modern player - snap buttons to content (rather than size of window)

Sep 10, 2018

Hi, 

I love the new modern player but I really dislike how the buttons snap to the size of the browser (or window), rather than snapping to the content itself. If the user has their window open full screen (and the content doesnt fill the screen), the prev and next buttons appear way off to the right.

Will there be a fix for this anytime soon?

Thanks!

Hi Stephanie!

The modern player always completely fills the learner’s browser, leaving no white space around the player. That means if they have a widescreen monitor with the browser open fullscreen, they may see extra space on either side of the slide.

It sounds like you'd prefer to have the option to "Lock player at optimal size" with the modern player. I'll pass this along to our product team, and if this option is added in the future, we'll let you know. 😁
