Question

Full screen image action in InDesign epub

Hi, using InDesign I've successfully created a pop up window for a video in an epub document using a button and State that once activated also offers the option for the video to go full screen on my device (iPad). Is there a way to have an image go full screen on the device (iPad) in a similar way?

 

Thanks

Dan

Same way. Put it into an MSO. If it's on the same page combine them into one in order to avoid any conflicts with the interactivity.

Hi Bob

 

Thanks for the quick reply, I don't get the fullscreen icon like I do on a video though.

 

The issue I face is I have a portrait book layout but a landscape image is incorporated into the design that needs to remain landscape. Rather than have a letter box effect with a coloured bar above and below the image I can place it on a separate page rotated 90 degrees. For this to work though it require the iPad user to lock rotation for them to rotate ibooks to view it the correct way round. With a video it works because it has an icon you can press in the video to make fullscreen, so that when you rotate the iPad the video stays the correct way round but fills the screen.

 

So I was hoping this fullscreen button could be applied to something other than a video.

 

Kind regards

Dan

I meant to just create a full screen version of the image and put it in an object state.
