Slide size and player size
Jun 30, 2017
Hi,
I've been having trouble with my player and slide sizes.
Basically on some slides its the normal size ive set it to but then on another slide the submit button moves and the player changes size. Ive checked all the settings and they all match. I put in a 'already created game' off articulate and it works perfectly and the browser settings match mine. I have never had this problem before so can anyone tell me why they think my player is changing size when all the perametres match? This happens when the story is published and it is noticeable. Ive never had this problem before.
Attached is a document showing screenshots of what i mean
Thanks in advance

Hi Alice,
did you check your player options? Did you set the player to "skale with browser"? Maybe this is causing to smaller size when the button is shown. We always use the build in buttons so it´s just a sguttestion.

You can look here for more information (SL2). Or here for SL3.
Hi,
The player is already set to the browser.

So its set to "scale player ..." or to "lock player ..."? If it´s "scale player ..." I think he will scale it either with or without the button, depending on the button shown or not.

Its scale browser, i dont get why its doing it because ive made over 30 modules and ive never had this problem.
Maybe you never used a build in button there or had always build in buttons shown. Did you try to lock the player size?
Hi Alice,
I'd love to help.
Can you share the .story file so I can see all your slides and the properties set up?
Hi Ashley,
I have just shared the story file on this reply.
Thanks in advnce! :)
Hi Alice,
I took a quick look into your file and as i thought not every slide as a build in player button and if the player settings are the same as yours (I don´t know if its saved within the file) its set to "scale player" and not "lock player". I never used this, but this might be the only option. But then the player wouldn´t scale anymore and is locked to your slide size plus player space around it.
I think the problem is that on certain slides you are using custom player settings which are causing the player to change size.
