Embedding Vimeo video
Hi Ashley,
I'm still having this issue in Storyline 2, should we expect an update which will resolve this? Are you aware of any video platforms where the full screen button works when embedding it into Storyline and uploading it to SCORM cloud for example? FYI - i currently use Vimeo but i'm open to any similar video platforms as long as the full screen button is available.
Thank you
Hi Lewis,
Thanks for checking in on this set up! When you embed videos from websites, such as YouTube and Vimeo, in Storyline 2 courses, you may find the fullscreen button for these videos is either missing or doesn't work in your published output. For security reasons, many web browsers are started restricting fullscreen mode for embedded iframe content.
We provided a programmatic solution for this issue in Update 10 for Storyline 2 (we're now on Update 11). Do you know which update of Storyline 2 you're using? You can easily check by going to the Help tab -> About Articulate Storyline. You'll see the update number listed there. We'd always recommend being on the latest update to have access to all the new features and fixes! You can download and install the latest version of Storyline 2 here and then you'll want to republish your courses to take advantage of those things. You mentioned SCORM Cloud, and some LMSs, such as SCORM Cloud, don't allow website videos to toggle into fullscreen mode.
When did you purchase Storyline 2? You may want to reach out to our Success team to talk about the options for upgrading! Articulate 360 has a lot more than just full screen videos in Rise! You can check out this comparison of Storyline 360 to Storyline 2 for some more information, and then take a look at all that you get with the Articulate 360 subscription!

Hi Ashley,
Thanks for replying, i'm already using update 11 if i publish the course and view project in storline 2 the full screen button is there, the issue occurs when we upload it our LMS and play the video, the full screen button disappears. I've also tested this on SCORM cloud and Articulate online and I'm having the same problem. As this was happening in Rise and Articulate fixed it i was wondering if the same fix could be applied to Storyline 2? I've spoken to support who have seen the problem and have escalated it to the developers but i was just wondering as its a known issue if we have any idea when it'll be fixed.
Kind Regards
