The only place I can think of where images can get distorted is where they are used as background images – is there somewhere else too?
 
Yes, deprecating would just mean removing as an option for new projects and not breaking existing projects

Depends if there’s a way to mimic the full screen option with the HTML 5 player? E.g. the reason that people sometimes preferred the full screen rather than fill window option in the Flash player was to avoid distortion of images etc and
 maintain the aspect ratio. We still get that distortion to a certain extent with the HTML 5 playback so if there was a way to enable Full Screen rather than Fill Window via HTML 5 too then it might be worth keeping. Assuming also deprecating just means it
 won’t be an option for new projects but will still work for older Flash projects?

Looks like there was some discussion of this last year (https://github.com/thexerteproject/xerteonlinetoolkits/issues/339) but both fill window & full screen
 are still there as options.
 
Is the consensus that full screen should go? Unless there’s a reason anyone can think of to keep it I’ll deprecate it.
