is it possible to change the default story size?

Hi Kiana,

The laptop or browser shouldn't make a difference unless it's an unsupported set up. You can see the supported browsers here. To ensure the best quality in terms of your published output I would look at locking the player and browser setting to the optimal size as described here. 

Hi, 

Has there been any updates in being able to change the default size to 16:9 permanently? 

Linking the other default change discussion on this post too for reference.

Hi, Shua, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! ✨

Thank you for adding your voice to this feature request, which is now linked to this discussion. While I don't have any news to share, we will be sure to update you when we get new information.

This article explains how we work to prioritize feature requests.

I would support this feature change.  Since I ONLY design in 16:9, it would be one less thing to do.

What would be useful would be to allow me to set global settings which are retained for each new project. The Storyline 360 "launch page" has a lot of unused real estate (several months ago, I asked "how much longer do I really need to know that Adobe is ending Flash support on 12/31/2020?" Guess what? It's still there!) which could be leveraged. Why not have Default Story Size there, where I can select from one of the built-in settings, or dial one of my own in?

Along with that, how about other settings, including:

• Publish Settings
• LMS Output Options
• Default development directory
• Player Properties
• Slide properties
• Default Slide Master
• Default Feedback Master
• Default Project Theme
• Default Theme Fonts
• Default directory for media import, including picture, video, and audio
• Default interactive objects properties

Did this update happen to enable setting other story defaults like colors, fonts, etc? I imagine most of the Storyline community is restricted by branding. It would be nice to be able to personalize the defaults of these other elements as well.
