moving the video window when it's an interactive software simulation
Greetings, all.
I recorded a screencast for a course I'm working on about a piece of software. Dropped it into Storyline 360 as a step-by-step interactive simulation, and things are working well....
Hi Lerissa! I'm a little late to the thread, but I have found a workaround that may help, if it's not too late. Lauren is correct that the position cannot be adjusted for simulations. However, if you record your simulation in 4:3 aspect ratio, make all your production edits/hot spot adjustments, and then change the slide size to 16:9 you can gain an extra 200 px on either side of the slide. There are couple things to be aware of though, though:
- Make sure you don't scale objects to fit the screen when you change the slide size. This will defeat the purpose of having space... and undo all your edits/adjustments.
- You have to pick a side by placing the recording on r/l and that's what you get for the whole scene/simulation.
It's not the same as placing it anywhere like other media, but can lend some wiggle room for notes without covering the application your simulating.
