In Full Screen Presentation, the mock-ups move and are not aligned!

Yes ... I can understand your struggle. Here is the issue that I am running into. We are building an iPhone application, and take considerable time to get everything exactly lined up, so that in full screen mode we can walk through the demo for the client ... and it fails. :-(

It seems that maybe the "Centering" ought to be an option of something ... instead of making us inject extra components to have it align exactly the way that we created the demo?

The alternative would be leave the design exactly was we lay it out ... and the provide a feature to "Center on Screen" any component that is laid out. That way the designer always gets exactly what they create at run-time (Full Screen mode).

We're just looking for the cleanest way to do a mock-up "mock-through" (as opposed to walk-through :-) without having to add an unused component to each page.

I'll try doing that for now ... to get by ... :-)

It doesn't require an extensive set of linked mockups to see this misbehavior in presentation mode. A simple interaction of a button opening a menu will show it, unless (as others noted) there is some common framing element in both mockups.

Since the bmml stores position data, I think the default behavior of presentation mode should be to "pin" all mockups to the upper left corner of the presentation palette, rather than centering them all based on the components they contain. Centering should be an option, but to present an interaction, you really mostly want the position maintained across mockups as it is in design mode.

I'd love to be able to define a fixed size for mockups so that when viewing in full screen mode, a smaller page doesn't jump as it centres on the page. Or, in full screen mode align to the top-left instead of the centre.

Fixed size in full screen mode.

A problem with Full screen presentation mode - Links to new pages DO NOT load or show starting at the top of the page. If you are linking btw pages that are long this behavior is nothing like that of a browser. After hitting a link, I end up scrolling up to the top of every page just to see what it is... can you suggest any workarounds of fixes. thanks jason

Full screen presentation scrolling and page load.

This really looks like a great product, I just played around with it for an hour or so.

I have just a question for which I could not find the answer in the help documentation:

is it possible to choose a larger canvas size than that what fits under all the toolbars? Actually, what I would really love is to pick a size in pixels (say, 1000 x 768) to play around in so to make sure it kind of fits on a monitor if it would be a full-screen webpage. Of course that size would be too big to be visible on my screen with all the toolbars etc, so there would be scrollbars needed. And maybe a 'zoom-out' if you really want to make it cool :-)

Even better of course would be that I could make my design on that canvas, than could see how different sizes (smaller, bigger) would work out: what would drop off or how much space would be extra.

can I choose a certain canvas size (eg 1000 x 768 px).

Peldi - this solution sounds like it would solve my issue.

I'd like to try it and see (of course)
