The Course Player tab of the MS LMS Settings will set up how students will see and learn courses on LMS. It has the following settings:
Select the appearance of the course player by choosing between light and dark themes. This defines the overall look and feel of the player.
Students can change the mode anytime in their Course Player.
NOTE
If you have made changes in the lesson text color, these changes may display incorrectly when changing to dark mode.
Assigning a custom Text Color will display the text in that color regardless of the Course Player Mode (Dark or Light). If you copy text with a custom black text color, it appears black regardless of the mode, causing visibility issues in dark mode. The same applies to text with white colors.
