Custom Screen Size
Would someone please provide examples of when you would use a custom screen size? The only information I have found is that the maximum custom size is 2,047 x 2,047.
I use a long width and a short height often when I am designing Storyline content that will specifically be shown inside of a Rise Storyline block. Most Rise blocks tend to be more of a banner than a block so doing so helps the Storyline content fit more seamlessly into Rise.
Here is an example Rise course with a wide and short Storyline "banner" block example.

I once had a request for and interactive Org Chart in Rise. So I built it in SL and made the Slide size very tall and narrow so there was room for all of the levels in the organization.
The extreme wide sample from Owen is unusable on mobile. I like Jonathan's 1:1 recommendation if you need to accommodate mobile users also.
To be fair, that example was designed for a pure "in office" customer so mobile was not a consideration. I normally love Storyline blocks in Rise but NOT for mobile content. Even the forced "play" button that makes your SL blocks look like videos can be confusing for learners.
