[Xerte] Re: Question about screen size

[John Bijnens]

Thank you for your response.

I've followed your recommendation but this doesn't solve the problem.
It doesn't matter whether I try to open the the project that was exported to a zip-file from a local hdd, an usb, or if I place it on a webserver.
The behaviour is the same i.e. the options "full screen" and "fill window" don't work.
It is only when I'm creating the project within Xerte Toolkits and perform a preview that these options work.

Best regards,

     John Bijnens
