I added the zoom icon to have the image enlarged when the user clicks on it but the enlarge image is not that big, Is there a way to increase the size?
The size of the Zoom image is dependent on the size of the original image when inserted into Storyline. If you need it larger, you will need to create a larger version of the image before inserting it into Storyline.
yes, the image I inserted is actually a full size. Just about the same same as the scree, Then I scaled it down for the "icon".. but when I apply the zoom, it doesn't zoom large
I inserted an image that was a reasonable size. Applied the zoom. When I previewed it, it shrunk smaller than the original before clicking it to zoom it?
I applied zoom at the size it was originally. Then I reduced the size to fit on the page. What it did when I "previewed it", even before clicking zoom, was reduce the size even smaller than what I had it at and there was a dotted line around it the size of the original. I just noticed after looking at one of my coworkers slide and the same thing happened. I took a screen shot.
It would be helpful to see the Storyline file to understand why the zoom effect isn't working. Would you be willing to attach your project to this discussion so we can look at what you have set up? You may also share it privately by sending it along in a support case. We'll delete it when we're done!

So I put together a quick PEEK to make sure our explanations are clear and that we are on the same page - https://360.articulate.com/review/content/f44a4a68-13c6-43af-bf7b-95dde2744753/review
Hi Ron,
BIG thank you for taking the time to record a screen capture of your instructions, It definitely helped me.
Thank you!

what was a reasonable size? and how big is it already on the slide? It will only enlarge if it is smaller than the insterted graphic
