Problem

When working on a Virtual Machine exercise (Power BI, Alteryx, Tableau) you may find that a button or field mentioned in the instructions does not appear to be visible on your screen. Many times, this can be related to the browser zoom level  within the VM environment, and can typically be resolved with a quick adjustment.


Solution

Adjust your browser zoom level

Try zooming out in your browser until the missing element becomes visible. You can do this by adjusting the zoom level in the bottom right corner

Try the full-screen mode while working on the exercise

Another option is to select the full-screen display

This way, there's more space for all the elements to show accordingly. You can use it while in the exercise and then go back to the regular screen to continue learning. 

If the situation persists

If the button or field is still not visible after adjusting both the zoom level and using the full-screen mode, please reach out to our Support Team with the following information:

  1. The URL of the exercise where the issue is occurring.
  2. A full screenshot of the exercise, making sure the zoom percentage is visible in the bottom bar of your browser, is included.
  3. A screenshot of your system check results — please run the check at https://system-check.datacamp.com and share the results with us.

Our team will review everything and get back to you as soon as possible!
