Videos not surfacing in Figure drawing section

Hi there,
I was just about to watch my 3D structure video, but the video for gesture came up instead. I've inserted a screenshot for your reference.
Two suggestions:
- The ability to unmark a lesson as complete would be nice (I can see myself going through the course once and marking lessons as complete, then wanting to unmark them all and tick them off again as I revised them for a second time. Idk, I like lists, so having that flexibility would be nice. It would also suck if you marked one complete by mistake. Ticking something off when you've finished is so satisfying...)
- That 'remove course' button looks ominous and scary lol, and it frightens me with how close it is to everything else. Could just see myself clicking it rather than the expand window. I daren't try it to see if you do get an 'are you sure' prompt – but if this is where that button must live, an extra window will help prevent misclicks.

@miadahlqvist I'm also having trouble replicating that bug. Can you try a different browser and see if you get the same result?
- thanks for the feedback, we're currently looking into solutions for unmarking lessons.
- you're not the first to say it's a scary button. I don't see us getting rid of it, but would it help if the language was different? All that button is supposed to do is to help you keep track of the courses you're actively working on.
@John B I'll give it a whirl with a different browser over the weekend. As for the button... yes, I think the language is what gets you, also its placement is close to the expand video hotspot. 'Remove from classroom' sounds like I am removing a paid course from my roster of courses (and makes me think: oh goodness. how will I get this back? if I press this have I lost my paid course?)
It depends on the purpose of this button, I think. Is the intention to – say, if you've polished off figure fundamentals and portrait fundamentals – remove those from your 'current roster', so to speak? Where does this change display visually for the user after clicking, where is the value in clicking on it at this level? I'm not sure it would really display on this page, so I wonder whether the button is useful at all at this level, the video level. I think UX wise, you'd be better served putting this button in a 'Manage Courses' section, and using language like 'Current Courses' and 'Remove From Current Courses'.
Hmm... I'm thinking maybe what's bothering people about that button is that the emphasis it receives is out of proportion to its importance. It's big, it's set off by itself, and it has its own background. That makes it look like a big deal. Add to that the fact it has the word "remove" on it. All together, encountering this is kind of like finding a big, red button in real life with the words "Launch Nuke" on it. Would you press it? :)
Possible fixes you could play with:
-Put it next to "Mark as Complete" and design it similarly
-or-
-Keep it where it is but give it a gray border instead of a gray background
I'm leaning towards the first option because there's been talk about putting a "Add to Favorites" option there and "Remove Course from classroom" could just be another option in the list
Lemme know what you think :)
@John B I just went to see if I could replicate the OPs bug with the wrong video loading and it appears to be working correctly on my end. I clicked on all the videos from the bean, structure, and landmark sections. I'm using Google Chrome if it matters.
@miadahlqvist Regarding the topic of marking/unmarking lessons I invite you to join our discussion here: https://prokolab.com/community/topics/two-problems
Yeah I use Brave Browser – perhaps it's that. For what it's worth, I'm now watching the structure video, but I had to navigate to it in a different way.
