Hi, there appears to be problems with using certain types of page as stand-along pages in lightbox mode. Is this a known issue? It seems to be ones with multiple parts; I've noticed it on Interactive List, Tabbed Navigator + and Thumbnail Viewer. Clicking on the links to the separate elements causes the stand-alone page to close.
Thanks.

Hi
I just tested this with the page types you mentioned in our latest developer code and they all worked fine. However I then imported my test project into a 3.10x install and could see the issue you are reporting. There were some fixes made in February to do with standalone pages set to lightbox mode and although those fixes were about use with SCORM I suspect perhaps the same fixes resolved the issues you have reported too. We are planning a new release in May so that will contain these fixes. In the meantime you could set your standalone page to open in same window but include a link back to wherever you are opening that from.
