Slide Images change resolution

[Andrews, A.S.]

Hi Nicholas

Your images could be changing for a number of reasons.

Firstly you should make sure your desktop size in the experiment is set to
the size you want. The default values are often different to your Windows
desktop. You can edit the settings through the Experiment object at the top
of the Structure window.

Next, you should place an image on a Slide object, and set the size of it to
be the same as the largest image you want to display. You should also make
sure that 'Stretch' is turned off or it will distort your images to fill the
placeholder.

Subject: Slide Images change resolution

Hello again E-Primers,

  Short question. I have a procedure using slide objects which present the
bmp files i have stored in the 'My Experiments' folder. when I run the
experiment, the images are distorted (the resolution changes, and the
images shift position). I don't like that the images shift and would
like them to appear the same as they are in the original file.

I have made sure that the file in the slide object is formated, but the
image always changes resolution during the experiment.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance
