I have an existing 30 scene presentation set at 1024x768 which now needs to be displayed on a HD TV at 1920x1080. I need to scale the presentation up and adjust the layout of a few items so it fills the new ratio as best I can, to avoid white space either side.
I’m ‘selecting all’ on a scene and scaling everything up by 140% (which roughly takes me to the correct height I need) then manually adjusting items for best fit. However, it doesn’t appear to be scaling the animation in line with the items themselves (if that makes sense) meaning I have to manually adjust every single page item individually (and there’s hundreds).
Am I going about this the wrong way? I can’t see a quicker way of doing it? Any help anyone may have will be greatly appreciated.
for a proportional scaling this is the latest hit. But in your case there is a nice gap between 1024x768 and 1920x1080. proportional fit to fill is also not an option¿
Hi, many thanks for the tip. I’ve not used Hype for a while and I though (maybe a few versions back?) that grouping effected the animation of individual items within the group, so that’s why I didn’t try.
Just grouped some elements and its scaled perfectly - saving me a mountain of time. Many thanks!
Yeah, if you’re using the group scaling method the trick is that everything needs to be in one top-level group. Sometimes it is easier to ungroup while developing and just wait until the end to group it all.
Could there be an option when you ungroup to preserve the transforms? Sort of like in After Effects, when you have a layer parented, scale the parent, and then unparent, the new size is preserved.
This is a good feature request. More specifically I’ve wanted to add a group and scene resize mode where the flexible layout pins will take effect when doing the resize as well.
