Which slide size in combination with which screenshot size or recording size?
Hello,
I am starting to develop an e-learning which will be viewed on screens with resolution 1920x1080 and 3849x2160. In the e-learning I will show screenshots of and also recordings of excel spreadsheets.
Can you help me with two questions:
- I don't understand which Slide Size will be the best for us to use. The default 960x640 size or for example 1920x1080. I am looking for the Slide Size which delivers the sharpest result when viewed by learners. When to use what Slide Size?
- Which screenshots-size and which recording-size to use for the sharpest result.
- Does a large Slide Size and/or screenshots/recordings result in slower working e-learning?
Thank you in advance.
Hello Patricia,
Thanks for reaching out!
We don't have a specific screen-size that we can recommend since a lot of factors can influence what the ideal resolution is for a project, but you can check out this article which explains how to get high quality video and images files for your course:
Additionally, having a large slide size and media files shouldn't affect the performance of your slides.
Hope this helps!

1920x1080 is about the largest size you can make, screenshots should be taken at that size or at least so you don't have to scale them.
