Larger menu titles
Aug 28, 2015

Hi all, I've looked at old forums where inserting font size="+5" etc is inserted before the navigation title but can't find that on the latest Presenter slide properties section - does anyone know how to enlarge the font of slide titles on the current version? It's way too small for tablets, in fact useless unless it's larger. It seems crazy to design presenter for mobile platforms but leave the font size unchangeable at such a small size - surely it can be changed....

Hi Adrian,
In Presenter '13 there isn't a way to adjust the overall font size. You may want to review the options here in regards to ways you can modify the player.
Thanks Ashley, tried to modify the player by:
1. changed the pp slide to 16x9
2. changed browser size to optimal and player to optimal size
3.published it and previewed it and it showed up with 16x9 slide in a 16x9 player, borders etc perfectly. Excellent so far .......
4.uploaded it and viewed it online - perfect at 16x9 slide and 169 "borders". Excellent so far....
5.downloaded it to phone and tablet - 16x9 slide but the player boundaries were still large at 4x3 which menat black edges around. HHHmmmmm????
Very frustrating - what's the solution please?????
Still need to enlarge font size but doesn't seem able which is a big problem if it's designed and needs to be played on tablets which are smaller. Just can't see the menu properly. Desperately needs fixing.

Hi Adrian,
Are you viewing this in the mobile player app or within a browser? If it's in the app, it's locked at a 4:3 aspect ratio. It fills the screen on mobile devices with 4:3 aspect ratios, such as Apple's iPad. On widescreen devices, such as Google's Nexus 10, published content will still use a 4:3 aspect ratio rather than scaling to fill the screen.
Rats! But thanks for the quick reply Ashley.
The main problem is not being able to use larger size fonts in the menu. I've put in a request to do so otherwise I just don't be able to use the system at all which is a shame because it had huge market for galleries but tiny menu on a 7" screen prohibits is use.

Certainly understand Adrian - and I'm glad we were able to confirm that element. Thanks for sending along your thoughts as a feature request as well!
