Fluid image box8/24/2023 ![]() You’ll see a lot of informational stuff where every presenter starts always with a slide based on the Blank master slide because it is also ‘virgin’. Two exceptions: you will not find Fluid Boxes on the main master slide, nor on the Blank master slide. Master SlidesĪll the included themes in Captivate have Fluid Boxes on the master slides (the ‘virgin’ Blank theme has them only on the quiz/score masters). Maybe you’ll have to decrease the minimum font size which is set to 14p (for Breakpoint Views it used to be 10p, still readable on smartphones). Text will rescale automatically when the screen resolution changes. You don’t need to set up the font size for different screen resolutions, as is necessary for Breakpoint views.

Using Fluid Boxes as alternative for Breakpoint views is an added feature with CP2017, about which you’ll find a lot of articles, webinars and videos. Shortly after the release I wrote an article about possible use cases in normal (blank projects): Guides Rule! ![]() They have a lot in common with the same feature in other Adobe applications (Illustrator, Photoshop to mention two).
