Forgive my terseness but the Captain Hindsight approach in your reply isn't adding positive value to this conversation. At least not for me. It's come across to me as if you're attempting to shame me for not knowing what "the basics of logic". You can't.
Let me ask you a question - Why would you NOT publish an HTML5 360VR course designed for mobile devices in Scalable HMTL5?
I am not boasting here, just giving you a frame of reference as to where my (il)logic stems from.... [potentiallyBoastfulComment] As a past desktop app developer, a mobile app developer, and with web design / develop chops I do not advertise [/potentiallyBoastfulComment] ... the only reason I would create content for mobile devices that was not scalable was if the content were responsive or not intended to fit on one screen (scrolling, as an example). So, please help me understand your logic. That's a sincere question. Because I can't grasp why you would not want to take full advantage of screen real estate and what logic leads to that decision.
I am not sure why you have the ability edit my title, but the fact you exercised that capability... AND did so without asking questions first is irregularly arrogant and unfortunately fits with how I am reading the arrogant tone of your reply.
I know you didn't ask, but I'll share... Scalable was not on the title for the insanely obvious reason that I didn't know it was the issue... that was the entire question... what is causing this? Why in Gods name would I include every nuance to the title of my question? Should I have added all the browsers and OS information in the title too? What about ALL of my publish settings besides the Scalable content? Should I have added that to the title also or face being shamed by trolls for not being clear? Did you see my copy in the body? I was trying to be as thorough as feasible, but obviously no one wants to read a novel so I did not include every aspect about my project - and - as a Civil Engineer, you know full well why I couldn't post the file...
Even knowing that scalable is the root cause, I would not add it to the title... Actually it's not the root cause... unchecking scalable content is the workaround to shortcuts taken by Adobe.... the root cause is Adobe Captivate developers not accounting for 0,0 registration on all browsers.... THAT is the REAL issue. That's why the hotspots are not where you expect them to be)… As a past app developer, that's why I even bothered to uncheck the box at all. I then discovered Adobe didn't do what I was doing in 2011... accounting for how browsers assign objects 0,0 point.
Why wouldn't I add it to the title?
There are Google studies I base my YouTube video titles, as well as forum titles off of. The studies are around how people search the web for a variety of intents. in my case, it was eye-opening to discover how people search for answers to technical issues.
Essentially they're designed so the person who does not know how to word what they are needing an answer to can find it. You know, the people who don't know what they don't know yet... By adding scalable info into the title, you are effectively making sure that the people who don't know anything about that have a stronger likelihood of passing it buy as not relevant to their search. Look it up.
And in case you want to defend the bug's existence, don't. I spoke with Adobe Tech Support and developers who acknowledge it is a miss/bug and I believe have plans to fix it, if they haven't fixed it already.
Don't worry, I will leave the title here as is, as I suspect most people like me have discovered the Forums here to be less than helpful - but I will post a video with the workaround with a title that will make sense to those who are struggling to find the answer like I was.
And now you know, in spite of not asking the questions.
