Title, Button Fonts and Logo Panel Size

May 17, 2012

Is it possible to customize the font family of the title of the course on the left top corner, and the font family of the buttons like Outline, Search, Bookmark, etc on the player window?

What is the best size of the logo to be placed on the logo panel?

Hi CC!

The Font types associated with the Presenter player cannot be changed. This is to help reduce overhead when embedding fonts into a published project. If you'd like to have the ability to change them in the future, please feel free to drop us a feature request

As far as your logo question, to fit in the logo panel, your image should be 244 pixels wide or less, and 92 DPI. 

Hope that's helpful!

Man, not being able to change the font size on the player should be updated asap. Not necessarily having every font available, but the size of font should be either change on it's own, or allow the size to be editable.  Unless my player is a small size, my text is way too small for a professional video (especially the resources text and files I've added).

Hi Lorenzo,

The size for the logo image itself is pretty similar. However, you're correct, there are quite a few changes with Studio '13's player. The positioning and display will be a little different with the new player. 

You can change the size of your slides and customize your Presentation further following this tutorial

The overall size of your published output will be slightly larger than the dimensions you choose for the presentation size. That's because the player (the interface that surrounds your slides) adds some width and height. Depending on the features you choose, the player adds up to 260 pixels to the width and up to 118 pixels to the height, which you'll want to keep in mind in regards to how your users will view the content. To learn how to customize your course player, see this tutorial.

I'd also recommend changing your presentation size before you add any content. Otherwise, you may need to resize or rearrange objects in your presentation to accommodate its new size.

If you haven't tried out Studio '13 just yet, it is available for free with the 30 day free trial. You can always try it out and see if you like the way the logo panel and player works in the new version.

Thanks!
