Storyline file added to Rise - play button on black screen
Hiya - I've embedded a Storyline file into Rise but it shows as a black screen with a play button. How do I change this so it just starts straight away?

On mobile it will always display this. On a desktop you can prevent it happening by removing the media (audio or video) on the first slide.
Hi Phil - I don't have any audio or video on the first slide. I have an animation and then the learner needs to click a few hot spots that take them to different layers that play video clips.
Hi Nina!
You'll see the gray or black cover screen with a play button even if the videos are on layers. I would suggest adding an intro slide with no media to the beginning of the Storyline content. Include a next button that learners will click to access the slide with video layers.
Thank you both, I worked it out from Phil's response after trial and error. This is handy to know so thanks again.
Hi everyone, I have read this discussion and I have a question about it: I have created a drag and drop exercise where I would like to add audio but it is all on one slide and on one level. how can i avoid black screen without removing the audio file?
Hi there, The Development Alchemists!
If you want to keep your audio on the first slide, you can customize the play button screen by adding a course cover photo. You'll have your selected course cover photo instead of a black screen on your Storyline block. I hope this helps!
