Poor image quality in Storyline 360
one area I have a big problem with the blurriness is in zoom regions. storyline does not support a higher-than-slide-res image file meaning when your zoom region kicks on, it simply zooms the image downsampled to its 100% size IN slide.
another way of saying this: I have a 3000x1900 image that has intricate details I want to do zoom regions on. when it is placed in the 1680x1050 slide and published, none of it's original resolution is kept, it simply zooms in on a down-sampled version on the image i put in and it just gets blurry. I have been on storyline since version 2 came out and have never found a way of keeping that image from being down sampled to slide size or smaller.

Hi there, RTSaud. You've got a good understanding of what happens. The HTML5 player is rendering images at a given size onto a canvas, losing any extra information it might have had. When the region is zoomed, it can only use the pixels that were on screen and zoom them.
It sounds like this is an issue for you with your images, so I'm sharing your thoughts so we can continue to track requests to change this feature. Thank you for contributing!

Storyline has a size limitation of 2048*2048 px for images. If you want to retain the original size (and resolution) you need to tile the image, import the tiles and reset their size to 100%.
