Fix Chrome? CP opens in a small window with a scroll bar

I have CP presentations that previously worked and they have started to open funny. They work in IE, but not in Chrome. The presentation opens in a full screen, but with a scroll bar and the right and only showing about 1/4 of the screen. See attached screen shot. Any ideas?

    So it could be 2 things:

    The HTML scaling that is causing your project to expand, and then add a scrollbar as the frame you are viewing your content in is expanding to suit the screen size. When you publish try unchecking the "Scalable HTML Content" checkbox from the publish settings.

    It could be the projects Zoom settings, if it is a flash module. Just right click and ensure its not zoomed.

    The thing that has me stumped is why it is only loading 1/4 of the screen.

    Hi There ,

    Can you tell me the version of Captivate you are using? Also try to clear the cookies and history of chrome browser and check again.

    I cleared the cookies and the browsing history. I have presentations using both CP 7 & 8. I'm still running into the problem.

    Hi There,

    Can you check if your Captivate 8 is updated to Cp 8.0.1 ? If not please update it and check again. Are you viewing the published output locally or uploading it to LMS or any Server ? Are you able to reproduce it on any other machine as well using Chrome?

    Regards,

    I've discovered that this is a Chrome bug. It should be fixed in the next update.

    If a user resizes their window, it will open.
