Altering the Screen size in Storyline

I am building an interactive point and click simulation project in Storyline. This is a massive project including multiple screenshots and hotspots. It is based on a software my company uses that is made for the big screen. The challenge I am having is when reviewing or publishing the print is very small. This is after I have already adjusted the slide size to 1400 x 1050. I know that you can click zoom to fit but the challenge is that the activities require the view of the whole screen. Some of the training videos showed the screens in full view (i.e. Creating Parallax Effects with Sliders). I was wondering if there was a way to adjust the screen using the DevTools option in Preview. If so, is there instruction. I would appreciate any help with this. Thanks

    I learned from an outside source how to include the option for users to mark full screen view. This solved my issue.

  • I am curious - what do the users do in the actual software?  Wouldn't it also be small?  Or do they scroll to see more content.

      Hi Ron, it is mostly point and click with drill down menus. It is and old software but still vital for the business. When using it, users will see it full screen so the print isn't small. The issue is the size of the published view (1st screenshot). I was wondering if there was a way to reduce the padding perhaps around the block. When switching to Fit to Screen the slide bar is unresponsive (2nd screenshot) and I'm concerned with using the mouse to move the screen and completing the tasks in Storyline will be cumbersome.
