What are the Pros & Cons of sticking to default Story Size vs. going larger?
Hi folks,
Would anyone care to share their thoughts and advise on what to consider if we're deviating from the default story size?
Does a size of (for e.g.) 1024 x 768 mean better resolution when viewing on a PC/laptop? Conversely, would remaining at the default 720 x 540 mean the course is flexible and could be viewed on tablets as well? Or am I just barking up the wrong tree?
Would love to know everyone's thoughts on this and what the pros / cons are of going larger vs. sticking with the default.
Thanks.
Indy

PS, this question is in context of starting from scratch, not trying to resize slides that have already been designed.

Very true. Our courses do not typically contain a lot complex graphics.
I realize this original post is 6 years old, but I'm running into an issue after setting my slide size to 1280x720. The border around the frame of the course only covers half of the navigation UI elements on the bottom of the navigator. See the attached image where the next, volume, and seekbar are not covered by the border, even though the preview shows differently.
Hi Anthony!
I'm sorry you're running into this snag! I don't see this on my end when testing a 1280x720 slide. Some users with similar issues find that a simple repair of Storyline 3 helps. I'd also check if the Windows Display setting is at 100%.
Let us know how it goes!
