SCORM

Not sure if this is relevant, but we have noticed with SCORM modules that at least when embedded in the current page, what Moodle is doing is creating an iframe for the start page of the module. This will normally be an html page such as index.html. We have issues with the way Storytime modules play that are due to the html in that page. For instance that the module is centered vertically instead of aligned to the top, so we get a blank space above the module, which gets pushed down the page.

For you situation, you may be telling moodle to make the iframe 100%, but then inside at frame, you need to control how the module page is displaying the content. You should be able to check by opening the start page directly in a browser, and see what happens when you resize the browser to fit the content.

Greetings Simon.  Indeed I did disable the names and all navigation panes.  I disabled anything that adds another element in the window.  Also, I am using Moodle 3.0.2., the latest as of today (I declared the incorrect version previously).  Please refer to the attached screenshot.  This is what I see with the default theme.  There is extra whitespace in the window.  In other LMSs, the SCORM player resizes itself to the parent window but Moodle might be using an iFrame or something similar that adds space around it.  This forces the user to scroll down to see the entire Scorm player (which include navigation controls).  That's my problem. 

I have the window set up to use 100% width/height.  The Scorm player should maximize itself within that window without requiring scrolling.  This issue is specific to Moodle.

I'm not on 3.0 yet however on my version if you disable the title and navigation option in the settings moodle still allocates a div and space for them. Try adding these to the custom css 

/* remove white space from the top of scorm player*/

body#page-mod-scorm-player { padding-top: 0px;}

#scormtop { display: none; }
