Resizing movies

You can resize Captivate movies, even after you have recorded them. This can be very useful and
can save you from having to re-record an entire movie. For example, you may have recorded your
movie at a width of 640 and height of 480, but then decided you needed a slightly smaller or
larger size.
Note: Resizing a movie cannot be "undone" with a toolbar button or key combination such as
Control+Z.
Note: Resizing a movie numerous times can result in quality deterioration. If possible, try to resize a
movie only once.
To resize a movie:
Open a Captivate movie.
1.
From the Movie menu, select Resize Movie.
2.
Under Size, enter an exact custom size in pixels in Width and Height (minimum size 100 x
3.
100), or enter a percentage for Width and Height with the current size being 100%. (For
example, to make the movie slightly bigger, enter 110%; to make the movie much smaller, enter
50%.) Alternatively, you can select the Preset size option and select a commonly used size, such
as 640 x 480, from the pop-up menu.
If you want, select the Maintain aspect ratio option, which maintains the height and width
proportions when the image is resized. This assures that the image is displayed accurately and is
not distorted.
You have different options depending on whether the new size you specified is larger or smaller

than the original size.
If the new size is larger
Rescale movie to fit new size: This option resizes the entire movie to the new larger size you
specified. To also rescale any objects in the movie, select the Rescale captions, highlight boxes,
and other objects option.
Keep movie the same size and fill background with color: This option keeps the movie the
same size, but creates a movie background at the size that you specified above. For example, if
your original movie is 550 x 400 pixels and you set the new size to 640 x 480, this option keeps
the movie at 550 x 400 and creates extra space around the movie of 90 x 80. You can select any
background color and choose a position for the movie on the background, such as Center or
Top Right.
Rescale captions, highlight boxes, and other objects: Select this option to have Captivate
automatically rescale all objects in your movie such as captions, highlight boxes, click boxes,
and text entry boxes to the new, larger size.
