Record Your Screen Sizing

I am a new user.  I have a project that includes PPT slides that look fine at 720 X 540.  However, when I 'record my screen' in full screen view, it gets inserted into a PPT slide and the screen capture is too tiny to see.  When I make the screen captures at 720 X 540, the screen capture is nicely visible in the PPT slide, but in order to complete my project, I would have to reposition that frame hundreds of times and create hundreds of individual slide scenes to make it work and then it would be a compromise view of many of the screens.  

If I do record my screen and then import PPT slides, the PPT slides are distorted.    

I assume there is an easy solution to this, but I am having trouble figuring it out...

Hi Curt,

I'd suggest for a screen recording, that you record at the same size as your story size as detailed here.  If you'll be importing PPT slides that are already sized as such, to not have to do any modifications of them once imported you could change the story size to match and you can determine how existing content will behave based on that as well.
