Record this Measurement Too.

Step 5 - Calculate Screen Size

[{"selector":"#anim-b8edf060-a8e6-4d85-97a5-a498a567ef1d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-42f6245e-aa9d-4d29-b136-ba38cdb6b69e","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-88da63d7-7630-42d3-aad7-fb305b5cc4f5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-14b0dc8a-3b40-449e-8ddd-9f65394f83b7","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-112.87672%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-950b9827-96fa-4054-9093-466667bf2a7f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-35ef5944-47cf-434f-b117-38b7f5a775c3","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(100.00000%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] 05 To Calculate the Screen Size, Use the Pythagorean Theorem: Screen Size = √(Width² + Height²).

Step 6 - Aspect Ratio

[{"selector":"#anim-8b875f67-884d-437f-a33a-17275437df72","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-daf87515-394d-423f-9015-a11a8aa26adf","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-88d82416-bcbb-444a-a238-dd0366aeec64","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8315a81d-b9de-461a-8588-05968841ce8d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-112.87672%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d365d59e-d824-4656-85b6-0108d62e7112","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-74164ee1-3477-4ef7-bc66-97701f0cb702","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(100.00000%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] 06 Don't Forget the Aspect Ratio! It's the Ratio of Width to Height and is Crucial for Accurate Representation.
