Forcing Web Objects to Stay in Slide in v. 3.82
Due to some limitations with the LMS I use, I have to use version 3.82 of Storyline (the November 2023 version).
I'm trying to create a course where users can view a PDF that's housed on a webpage without the page opening in a new window. I tried using the "Display in Slide" setting for the web object, but when I test the course in Review 360, it always opens a new browser window. I've tried about 3 or 4 variations (including opening in a new layer that displays the web object), but nothing seems to be working.
Is this just a bug in the version that I have to use, and there's nothing I can really do about it, or is there another workaround that might exist?

here is an example to integate external pdf in a web object (created with SL 3.82)

version 1: with link to external pdf
settings:
version 2: with a local index.html
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>

Oh, I see! Thank you, I'll try changing the "scale with slide" setting.

disable "scale with slide" setting prevents blurry text
