							| Online exercises - How to fit them within the "frame" 
 |  
							| It �s hard to explain my question, but let me try:  When we make a ws we have the boundaries clearly limited but it �s different with OEs. At the risk of sounding like an advertisement (and a bad one because after working really hard on it, the OE doesn �t look nice!  ), the OE I uploaded today shows rows of 3 pictures away from each other.  My preview shows the FIVE pictures close together - with room for at least one more!  Should we make OEs using half the available space? I �ll try to update it at least to remove the gaps between exercises (that are not on my preview) but, if you know what I can do to improve it, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

							| Dear Anna,   When you insert a table, the default width is 100%. In this case the table will expand to fill the width of the screen, and the pictures will appear away from each other.   To avoid this, you can choose a fixed width when you insert a table. For example: 990 pixels is a width that will fit properly in most of the screens.     I hope this helps,   Victor |  14 Jun 2011

							| Thanks so much for your help, Victor.  I was choosing 80% for the width! That �s why it seemed fine on my preview but the end result was not so good.  I didn �t use this tool in my previous OE and was not familiar with it. Thanks again for all you do for this wonderful site, Anna  |  14 Jun 2011
