I was wondering how to make my project bigger or full screen on the preview, because the window is too small and probably there is an option that shows the preview on the whole screen, without toolbars, just the project.
Yoou can set it to scale iin the player settings, it is not possible to do full screen, you could put a message to press F11 for full screen, which will put most browsers into full screen
What's the story size you're using? Also what are you using for the player and browser settings? This is a tutorial for Storyline 2, but the same steps would apply to change those settings in Storyline 1 or 3.
Those will determine the overall size of the course and how it'll display on your screen within your LMS.
Changing the story size after the fact can cause things to be out of alignment as Storyline is readjusting their location and position on the slide. I'd recommend starting a new file and setting the story size - from there you could look at importing in your existing file and choosing how those items will resize. There is a bit more information about that here.
Also, the player size may appear small in the preview, as we only have so much real estate inside the Storyline UI to show you the project. Have you tested publishing it and viewing it on the intended device? The larger you make your slide size, the smaller the player will look - especially in preview.

Hi Andrea
In addtion to what phil mentioned you can also adapt your project size
This window allows you to resize the whole project
Be aware, ALL objects will be influenced by your actions in this window
It is therefore wise to this before actually starting to develop your project
Cheers

What is an aspect ratio you would recommend for attempting to create a full-screen/full browser size player?
1920 x 1080
Hi Nick! Thanks for popping in to share you recommendation here with the community.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you, it worked perfectly!
Hi I'm reading this, and I was wondering if this is the way to make the player bigger?
When I publish to LMS my project, it gets posted and it's pretty small. I need to make this bigger.
Here are the publish criterias if you need to know
LMS SCROM 2004 3rd edition
HTML5 selected
ios / android deselected
then zip
Hi Viviane,

I am working with SL2. I was able to change the screen size using the Story Size button, but now two things are happening:
- Somehow the question bank correct answers are shitfing out of alignment, giving the student the correct choices.
- The player size became very tiny.
I have attached my whole project so you can see.
