Recommended Slide Size

Hi, Jason,

In the Slide Size window, you can change the size to the 16:9 preset or enter a custom size. When you've got that done, click the "SET AS DEFAULT SIZE" button to make future projects open with that size. (It can always be adjusted as needed in a given project.)

I am wondering the answer to the rest of Jason's question: "will the pixels become distorted when viewed on a high definition resolution." Also, what are recommended resolution/slide sizes for higher resolution displays? 

Hi, Lon.

Thank you for reaching out!

Since the Modern Player is responsive, your slide content automatically scales to fill all the available space in web browsers, giving learners the best experience whether they’re using a desktop computer, tablet, or smartphone. 

I found the discussion below with some suggestions when choosing the slide size for your projects:

• Recommended Story/player size

I hope this helps!

Hello,

I made a small test and set up two projects : one is 960x540, the other one is 1920x1080 (4 times bigger), with the same content.

When published, assets (pictures) are exactly the same (size and weight). I expected my lowres project to be upscaled and blurry but as it seems assets are kept at their original resolution, everything is actually scaled down whatever the size it's displayed at.

So, is it "safe" to keep the default 16/9 resolution (960x540) ?

Thanks.

Depends on the size of the assets, I would go larger it gives you more space to play with in design
