Expanding a Panel to Full Screen

When a panel expands to full screen, the panel dimensions do not change but an overlay is added around the panel to fit the full screen. The overlay is defined as the background, whereas the panel is considered the foreground area.

The Expand to Full Screen action allows you to define a background overlay and a close button, including the position of the close button in the ad.

Pushdown

Pushdown is a type of expanding ad that pushes the content of a web page down when the ad expands, moving the site out of the way to display the ad. This format provides an above-the-fold opportunity for advertisers. For more information, see Create a Pushdown in SAS Ad Builder.

Adjusting Settings in Amazon Ad Server

Once you save the ad in Ad Builder, it becomes available in AAS. Then, you can adjust the settings on the Panels tab.
