Modern "Highlighted Content" webpart

Hi,

Highlighted content webpart is opening its content in Online versions even though the Site Collection settings (and libraries) stipulate doc's to be opened in client versions.

 

Is this normal and if so, any way to stop it doing this?

Really need content to open in client.

 

Thanks.

    I think this is by design so no matter the configuration you have in your source document libraries

        I just found out too! Raised a ticket with MS, the agent wasn't aware, but came back after some discussion with colleagues with that response. He referred to uservoice and to request this there.
