New Captivate – Resize slides

Hi

I am having an issue with the new Adobe Captivate as I can't resize the project slides. It seems like such an easy feature to resize them but I'm going round in circles. I started with the default size of 1366x768 pixels, however, when I opened it again today, the size has changed to 1920x1080. I can only assume this was after attempting to record a software simulation on a Full HD window. 

 

When I preview my project, the default size is back in play with the responsive design, but the problem is, my working window is still displaying 1920x1080 and nothing aligns properly, so I can't line up the components correctly.

 

Does anyone have an idea for fixing this? It seems such an obvious thing but I'd really appreaciate any advice.

 

TIA

    Attached is a screen capture of the working window (hotspots don't line up to the image) and the preview window (hotspots line up OK).

    Those three little icons at the top of your stage in Captivate edit mode are telling you that this is a responsive project.

    You probably already knew that.  But what you may not have realised yet is that with Captivate 12 you do NOT have the option to create a fixed size project.  You can only create responsive output.

     

    This is one of the main issues many of us have with Captivate 12.  It makes it impossible to create most of the e-learning our clients want.

    Thanks for your reply RodWard.
    It's not just me then 🙄
    It's just confusing that the size has changed somehow so all my components are all skewed in my working window. Very frustrating!
