Hello, Ernst!
You mentioned you're seeing the big play button while viewing the course on a PC. Does the Storyline block have audio or video on the first slide?
Browsers like Chrome and Safari have started to block the autoplay of media. This article explains why you're seeing a play button in those browsers.
Let me know if that answers your question!
Dear Alyssa
Thanks for your reply.
As you write my embedded Storyline block has audio on the first slide. Therefore it's clear now for me.
I thought that the big play button shows up on PC screens when loading time of an embedded Storyline block takes too long - therefore I created a very simple start slide which has to be clicked to actually start (go to next slide) the Storyline module which is rather large in size (also because of the audio...).
And this worked, but not because of what I assumed, but because the first slide doesn't contain any audio.
And asked again: are your developers considering replacing the big blob with the start arrow on small screens with something more appealing?
Kind regards
Ernst
Ernst,
I have been begging for this for over a year now. I have submitted several feature requests but was told it was not on the current roadmap. I am not a software developer, but adding a simple transparent overlay over the thumbnail of the start slide would be a more elegant solution. This is particularly awful when viewing inside a Rise course. The other issue I’ve noticed lately is when you go back to resume the block. The ugly black button persists.
