Storyline 360, first page show size with player, when using player
May 15, 2018
Dear all,
In the past when I used the SL player the first page of the course showed the size/resolution of the page without the player. But now whatever I do the first page always show the size/resolution with the player. The first page looks not nice now, content is concentrated in the middle, then there is the space on both side and it is surrounded with the border color I have set for the player. The space on both size is the space from the player but then divided over left and right side.
Is there a way I can solve this? So the first page only shows the size without the player. It is landscape only, resize browser to fill screen, scale player to fill browser window, no new window. Flash with HTML 5 fall back.
best regards,
Choi

Hello Choi! Happy to point you in the right direction, but first I want to make sure I understand what you're seeing.
Dear Alyssa,
Yes I'm viewing it on a desktop PC. Also looks like this in Articulate review mode when published to there.
Attached the screenshot

Thanks for sending the screenshot, Choi. I'd be really interested in doing some further testing on your file. Would you mind sharing it with me here?
Dear Alyssa,
I forgot to mention that the template I'm using is one created from SL2 and upgrade to SL360 when opening it with SL360. I will remake the file for you. Thanks much for helping me.
Thanks, Eun. When you're ready, you can click here and use the Add Attachment button to attach the file. I'll be here!
Dear Alyssa,
sorry for my late reply. I have made an example. Do you want me to publish it to LMS and the add the ZIP file? Or can i just upload the .story?
best regards,
Choi
Hi Choi! The original .story file would be great. You can click here to open the forum thread, then attach it to a new thread comment. Thanks!
Hi Alyssa,
Here it is.
Thanks much for looking at it!

Hi Choi,
I've got your file open now, and I see that some slides have the menu enabled, and some don't.
Do you want the menu enabled on all slides, or disabled on all slides?
Hi Alyssa,
i need them to be enabled on all slide except for the first one
I just tried it out on the .story i send you but I still have the same effect on the first pages with the big borders.
thanks much for your time again
Thanks, Eun!
You're seeing extra space on the left and right sides of the first slide because the player needs room for the sidebar menu and glossary on the subsequent slides.
The good news is, there are two ways you can fix this!
-OR-
I'd encourage you to explore both of those options to see which one best fits with your design. I hope one of those solutions will work for you!
Dear Alyssa,
Sorry for my very late reply, been very busy. I have looked to both of the options but i don't really like them. In the past it would show the first page without those borders. Pity that it showing like this now.
Thank you much for your time!! really appreciated.
all the best
Choi
