Slide size & Design

Which slide size is common to use in order to create a clean and wide template in Storyline? Also, do you have any tips and tricks to make you course up to date and modern?

Do you know any additional sources to read?

Thank you in advance!

    Either the 16:9 layout (13.33 in x 7.5 in) or the 4:3 layout (10 in x 7.5 in) works for most courses. I would probably use the 16:9 for the widest appearance. As for "tips and tricks" to make a course appear "up to date and modern," that's a fairly broad request. I have used the templates and challenges on this site (well, the old one since I'm still figuring out where things are here) for ideas in the past. Good luck!

    Hi there, I was going to provide the same re the slide size, JHauglie, good call. Articulate 360 provides a link to this selection in the top navigation. Select, "Design," then look far left to the "Design Size Setup" and select the 16:9 layout. As for "tips and tricks," take a look at this site: https://blogs.articulate.com/rapid-elearning/about-tom/. I think you'll find lots of help here! Good luck, and feel free to post anytime you have questions. We're all here to help! : )
