Maximizing an .exe project in Captivate 8

Question

I am publishing to an .exe in Captivate 8.0.3.290. I have been asked if there is a way to allow the user to maximize the window, but the maximize/minimize button on the window is grayed out. When I look at the Rescale Project info, the area in the "if new size is larger" or "if new size is smaller" is set to "rescale project to fit new size" with "rescale all objects" checked.

Is there any way to allow the user to be able to maximize the presentation? When they are viewing in a classroom setting on a projector, they are unable to make it full screen if they want to or adjust it in any way. TIA for any assistance/advice!

That is the reason why I always publish to interactive pdf, which can be rescaled easily, shown full screen during a presentation. Of course, you

need to know which width/ height ratio is supported by the projector. And choose that same ratio for your CP-project.

Forgot: indeed, there is no way to rescale a standalone published version, whether to exe or to app.

Additional issue being experienced, when the end user connects to a projector, the buttons on the bottom of the presentation are cut off and they cannot adjust the screen at all.
