I always use a VPN when I am on the internet. This is likely not culprit, as sometimes the PiP feature is available in “Play” mode, depending on the lesson.
I generally use the Firefox browser. It occurred to me to try the Safari browser, and when I did, the PiP feature WAS available in Full Screen mode when I was in the Play mode, and it worked well in terms of what I was trying to achieve (in Play mode, use PiP while viewing the Tabs screen). So something in my Firefox browser is preventing me from seeing the same PiP screen as you are seeing and as I see using the Safari browser. OK, I can accept that…but what I really don’t understand is why Firefox allows me to use PiP on SOME lessons and not others…you don’t happen to use Apple machines, do you?

MemberJune 15, 2023 at 5:34 am in reply to: Picture-in-Picture feature of Daily Challenge@Loraine – thank you very much for the tip about using the “@” sign…I’ve seen it used a lot but never understood why it was used – I just assumed it had something to do with Twitter or Facebook or some other social media app (I don’t “do” social media).
I am using an up-to-date Mac laptop called a “MacBook Air”, with iOS up-to-date at Ventura 13.4 Nothing fancy or unusual. So I am accessing the lessons with a “computer” as opposed to my phone or my tablet.
When I maximize the lesson “Goode and Bad” in “Play” mode (labeled “Scale” mode in this lesson), I can’t seem to do anything to bring up any kind of menu…I have tried various keyboard combinations, clicking on the screen in various ways and in various places, etc., but no menu appears on the screen. Clicking on the “settings” button in the lower right-hand area of the screen is not useful in displaying a PiP option.
I also don’t understand why this problem only seems to occur with some lessons…for instance in today’s lesson “Duck Walk”, while in “Play” mode, simply hovering the mouse pointer icon over the video portion of the screen brings up the PiP “button” to enable that feature if I so desire just as doing so in “Learn” mode always brings up the PiP “button”, regardless of the lesson I am on. Hovering my screen pointer over the “Goode and Bad” play/scale mode screen does not bring up said PiP icon/button.
All in all, at this point it is a bit of a confusing picture, if you’ll excuse the pun.

MemberJune 13, 2023 at 6:32 pm in reply to: Picture-in-Picture feature of Daily ChallengeLoraine – Yesterday’s lesson (Chuck Wagon) very easily allows PiP in “Play” mode, even before you maximize the screen. However, I can’t seem to get the PiP to work in “Play” mode for today’s lesson (Mr. B. Goode). If I maximize the screen, there is still no ability to do PiP. Can you describe what you do to see PiP for the “Play” mode of the lesson “Mr. B. Goode”?
My goal here is to have the Tabs pdf on display in full screen mode with the “Play” mode PiP screen displayed “over” the tabs screen.

MemberJune 12, 2023 at 4:08 pm in reply to: Picture-in-Picture feature of Daily ChallengeThat is terrific news. Thank you very much for following up with Victoria, as apparently she didn’t know that information when I contacted her. I will be sure to try to “maximize” my screen the next time I try the “Play” mode to get to the PiP screen. Thank you!
