MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2006Display slide on 1280x800 screen
I bought a new computer which has a screen resolution of 1280x800. I can't seem to get a PPT slide to fill the screen. Even though I go to Slide Show and set the resolution to 1280x800, I still get black bars on the edges of the screen. Is it possible to fill a 1280x800 screen using PPT XP?  SignatureRegards, Fred You have two choices, each with its disadvantages: 1. Go to the advanced display properties and find a setting that fills content to the screen size (by distorting/stretching to fill full width). 2. Create a custom presentation with a page setup that matches your screen dimension (page setup = 12.5" x 7.8"), which will look great on the laptop, but not fit computers/projectors with other size...

Thanks for your help. I think I'll stick with the black lines, as I need to use a projector on this project. SignatureRegards, Fred > You have two choices, each with its disadvantages: > 1.

If you leave the file set to OnScreen Show, it should show fine on the projector.
