Unfortunately you cannot adjust the size of individual slides. If most of your slides are widescreen you may want to adjust the global slide size. I'd stick to a standard aspect ratio to avoid any unwanted distortion.
When I changed the Ratio, that did absoluty nothing... I tried to custom the size with my record size (1024*768) and nothing. I had again the white space at the top and the bottom of my image.
Storyline does try to respond to the size change by automatically altering the aspect ratio of the objects already in the project. So it may have adjusted your image in order to maintain the boarders at the top and bottom as that is how it was originally.
Out of interest, is there any reason you cannot manually alter the image to remove the space.
Or alternatively, could you upload the file and I'll take a look.
Am I right in thinking the object to resize is a screenrecording and not an image? If so then as far as I'm aware you can't resize these unless you export them into a video editing suite.
Hopefully others on the forum will have some suggestions
Looks like you did the screen capture in 4:3 format. Id like to help by getting at the bg image but its locked, not from the slide master either so I cant get at it.
I can only suggest as an alternative that you screen capture the SL that you have built making sure this time to do 16:9 format then use that to rebuild the SL presentation ??
When you insert a screen recording as step by step - it becomes a part of the background of the slide, and there isn't a way to adjust the overall size as the images are not typical images but a part of the background. If you recorded it as 16:9 you will want to use the same story size as your recording to allow it to fill up the entire slide.

Hello Bruce
If I used 16:9 Format, I didn't have white space on my slide !!!
Thank you
