We are currently building interactions for AMP. We have to increase the story size to accommodate the menu on the top right (e.g., Contact us). We are wondering if there are best practices on what and what not to do (e.g., story size, audio specs, video specs, etc) when building interactions for AMP. Thank you.
Thank you for the articles links. I do have a question regarding the content size for iPad. Is that apply to iPad Safari or Articulate Mobile Player or both?
When you set the story size it'll apply to however you're viewing the course (Desktop, iPad app, Safari, etc.) although, as you likely read in that thread, some community members have found it hard to use the menu within the mobile Safari version as the type is fairly small. Within the iPad app, you'll see it displayed in a more user friendly way. Determining what size works best for you will likely depend on how much content you have per slide, if there is a lot of smaller items, if you need to deploy for iPad and desktop, etc. I noticed that in the thread Kevin mentioned developing two versions even - one for iPad and one for desktop, just so that he could set the story size accordingly for each.
Thank you for the information. We will definitely have to play with the size. Unfortunately we don' t have much time and energy to create two versions. But we definitely will keep that in mind.

Hi Benny,
There has been a lot of discussion about story size for the iPad, and you'll find an article here with a link to the forum thread.
You may also want to review this chart which compares Storyline's HTML5, Flash and AMP output, as there are a few items that will not work within AMP.

Totally understand Benny - I think making two versions of the same course is not the norm.
Let us know if you need anything else!
