Custom Video Control
Morning Heroes!
I was wondering if it is possible to customise the video controls in SL2?
I would like to change the colour to match a colour pallete but cannot seem to find the correct section under the player settings.
Is there anyway to change the colours or to use entirely custom video controls?

Hi Gregory,
What version of Storyline are you using? Can you share a screenshot of your slide with the missing fullscreen button?
Hi, our developer found a solution. It works now. The only issue is that the 'full screen' button has disappeared on Articulate Review. But that's ok.
Cheers
Ah okay, great! Thanks for letting me know.
The video player controls look very 90's. Could you guys update the design in the SDK to have at least an alternative flat design style, something like material.io? The options above are all tedious workarounds. This should probably be a feature.
Hi there, Andrei. Thank you for the candid feedback!
Our team is keen to hear about how we can improve our tools, so I've documented the request for a built-in way to customize Storyline's default video controls.
If we add this enhancement in the future, I'll make sure to update this discussion and let you know. Click here for a look at how we prioritize feature requests!
Can we change the color of the custom video player seek bar in javascript and also can we add any additional features in the video player using javascript like (download option, changing color to seek bar)?
Thank you
You can with CSS and Javascript. Find in the console the class of the player elements you want to customize and then use JS and CSS to override that particular class. Best to test it in the browser....then you can use that code. Its easiest done with jQuery. Don't forget however that jQuery got removed quite a while ago from SL. So you have to add it.
