Going full screen
Another newbie question. I noticed in a lot of your showcase examples that they don't
really go full screen. Can Storyline adapt itself to go full screen and then back to limited

Hi Indrani!
Thanks for including those screenshots--that's super helpful! It looks like the aspect ratio of your Story Size is different than the aspect ratio of your browser.
When you start a new project in Storyline, it automatically defaults to 720 x 540 pixels, which means a 4:3 aspect ratio. For this project, you'll want to use a widescreen aspect ratio like 16:9, and you'll have two options:
- Scale To Fit: This scales the slide content to fit proportionately within the new size. Objects that have locked aspect ratios will maintain their ratios. Objects that don't have locked aspect ratios may change shape, depending on the story size you choose. (Learn more about locking aspect ratios.)
- Fill Background: This keeps the current slide background and applies it to the new size, but it doesn't resize your slide content. If you choose this option, use the corresponding Story Position drop-down to choose where existing content should appear on your slides.
Once you change the aspect ratio, republish the file. Let me know if you see an improvement!
