Unfortunately there isn't a way to force the location, and will typically center itself in the middle of the browser window. You could control the scaling of it though - for the player and browser as shown here.
I appreciate your response, Ashley, but that's not quite what I needed.
After some investigation, I discovered a solution that worked for me. For some context: I wanted the player to (i) have a display ratio of 16:9, (ii) be responsive to users' browser width, and (iii) not float awkwardly in the middle of the screen within the LMS's iframe. In essence, I wanted a full-screen experience customized to display within our LMS. To achieve this, I made some alterations to the output files' in-line styling.

Hi friends, just a public service announcement that this fix doesn't seem to work anymore. There was an update to Articulate Storyline 2 that somehow negated this code. We also updated to the new Articulate Storyline 3 (btw, is WAY better and I suggest upgrading immediately) and this fix doesn't work there either.
Sorry that you're not able to use this any longer! I'm not sure which update of Storyline 2 could have impacted this, since it wasn't supported anyway. But with Storyline 3 and 360 we rewrote our publishing engine with the focus on HTML5 output so that did change how some of these things interacted.
thanks for the quick reply Ashley! honestly it's such a minor subjective thing.. at least for our uses and I do believe it's something that's corrected within our LMS anyways. Maybe in a future revision there could be an option for browser alignment. :D

Thanks Jordan for sharing that here - although I can't support the modification of published output, if it works for you though - great to hear!
