Strategy ONE

Automatically resizing documents in Express Mode

You can allow a document to automatically resize itself each time that the document is run or the browser window that displays the document is resized. This is especially useful for optimizing the display of documents designed to be viewed on devices with different screen resolutions. This option applies to documents displayed in Express Mode in MicroStrategy Web.

You can have the document resize itself in one of the following ways:

  • Have the document stretch or shrink to fit horizontally between the left-most and right-most edges of the browser window.

  • Have the document stretch or shrink so that the entire page fits within the working space available in Web.

To allow a document to automatically resize itself in Express Mode

  1. In Web, open the document in Express Mode.

  2. From the drop-down list in the document's toolbar, select one of the following:

    • To stretch or shrink the document so that it fits horizontally between the left-most and right-most edges of the browser window, select Fit Width.

    • The document maintains the same aspect ratio when stretched or shrunk. If the document's height when stretched or shrunk exceeds the height of the browser window, you can use the scroll bars to view the rest of the document.

    • To size the document so that the entire page fits within the working space available in Web, select Fit Page. The document maintains the same aspect ratio when stretched or shrunk.

  3. Save the document. When the document is run or the browser window is resized in Express Mode, the document automatically resizes itself.
