Predefined frame sizes for different projector resolutions

Hi Prezi team,

I would suggest a framing function (esp. for hidden frames) where the user can make a selection about the size (4:3; 16:9 and 16:10). This would help with projection as it would ensure that only the frame size equals the resolution of the projector.

    happy I’m intrigued by this idea.
    Hi Christoph,

    for 4:3 this is already possible: hold [Shift] while dragging the frame. You are right, with more and more screens and projectors having these other aspect ratios, offering more pre-set frames is something we have to consider.

    I'll relay your suggestions.

    Kind regards,

    Katrin

    Work-around: in the Path bubble menu, you can choose the "Capture view" option to create a frame of exactly the aspect ratio of your computer screen.

    sad I’m frustrated
    Hi!
    You made some changes to make it easier for us to create presentations on laptops (16:9 resolution) to present with projectors (4:3 resolution)

    In the link: http://prezi.com/learn/plugging-proje...
    You said that, when i switch to 4:3 ratio, i should be able to see guide or frame, which is showing me 4:3 ratio when in edit mode. In show mode there should be visible black areas on both side.

    Well, in show this feature of prezi works fine. But when i am in edit mode i have some problems.

    There is NO grey dashed rectangle to see where are the borders of the 4:3 resolution. Please help! I'm working on 16:9 resolution computer screen. When I press CTRL+SHIFT+M there is notification in the middle of the screen to tell me that i am switching between resolutions but when it dissapears nothing is different. As i said, i can't see borders of 4:3 resolution. In show mode, 4:3 is working normally.

    Please help!
