Show media in portrait orientation

Media elements can also be output in portrait orientation. Portrait orientation output is achieved by adjusting the element setting Image format.

For the element setting Image format, the following options are available for media elements:

  • Mobile phone vertical screen (small)
  • Mobile phone vertical screen (mdium)
  • Mobile phone vertical screen (large)

These settings limit the maximum width of the output to 200, 300, or 400 pixels. At the same time, an aspect ratio of 9/16 is set in accordance with YouTube's recommendation. In addition, the video is displayed left-aligned instead of centered if necessary.

The following options are available for Image alignment:

  • Left aligned
  • Centered
  • Right aligned

The setting applies to the image formats “Mobile phone vertical screen (small)”, “Mobile phone vertical screen (medium)” and “Mobile phone vertical screen (large)”.

The selected alignment applies on all screen sizes, including smartphones. It becomes visible whenever the available area is wider than the media. If less space is available, the media automatically scales down as before.

“Left aligned” remains the default, so existing presentations do not change.

Note: The new setting has no effect on other image formats.
