Sizing Issue
Jan 24, 2014
By
Clare Marsh
Please can someone help... I have done a whole project (156 slides) and published for review then realised the window is too big for the internet - I have gone in to change the size however all my screen recordings (which this project is) have been resized and will not go back.
Can someone advise me as to how I put this right? I can not attach the project, not even one slide, because the internet here keeps timing out - I can not e-mail it either due to e-mail limits here in the NHS, but I have attached a screen shot. Can someone give me some guidance/instructions or am I going to need to start again?
Many Thanks
Clare

Hi Clare,
I know you posted this 4 hours ago - but I wanted to know if you've closed the project already or if you've made any other changes. If not, try pressing CTRL+Z (Undo) and see if the Story Size/Slide size is reset. If you've only made a few changes, you should be able to back up to that point.
Have you had any luck?
Thanks!
I clicked undo and that didn't help at the time, I then saved as a different name, I closed it but when I opened it again it had already saved the changes. Is there anything else I can do?
Hi Clare,
Can you try reinserting one of the screen recordings? When you do so, does it resize to the new, smaller Story Size? If not, is it still cut off?
If you change back to the original Story Size, does it fill the slide again?
HI Christine
no it doesn't fill the screen again, I have managed to get it to revert it back but not sire what size to put the project.
I can reinsert recordings but the presets where not quite where I wanted them so I would need to start again.
Do you know what the standard size is?
Take care
Clare
Hi Clare,
I'm glad to hear that you were able to get it to revert back - that's one step closer! :)
When you first begin a new project, the content area of your course (the slide stage) defaults to 720 pixels wide and 540 pixels high.
This tutorial may help with some suggestions as well:

Let me know how it goes! :)
Best,
Christine
