I'm working on creating a course that includes slides with screencast videos but my videos are not appearing on the full screen of the course. How can I increase the size of the videos to match the rest of the slides in the course? I was able to make the player invisible but that doesn't help my screencast videos. I assume it has to do with getting the correct Story Size, Browser Size, Player Size and Screen Cast Size ( I've set this one to full screen). Any exact sizes for these would be helpful. Thanks!
Do you want the screen recording to fill the entire slide area? If so, you'll want to set the dimensions of the recording area to match the dimensions of the slide size. Remember, Storyline will never stretch or skew slide content to fill a device screen, so you'll want to use a slide size that closely resembles the aspect ratio of most devices.
That definitely helped. I don't have it exactly the way I want it just yet but I'm soooo close. Will just need to play around with the Recording Area and Slide Size a bit more to get it just the way I need it. Thanks so much for your assistance!

Hi Mel,
Do you want the screen recording to fill the entire slide area? If so, you'll want to set the dimensions of the recording area to match the dimensions of the slide size. Remember, Storyline will never stretch or skew slide content to fill a device screen, so you'll want to use a slide size that closely resembles the aspect ratio of most devices.
Next, set the browser setting and player size to "Scale player to fill browser window" and "Resize browser to fill screen."
Let me know if that's what you were looking for, or if you had something else in mind!
