You can customize your slides to create a unique look for your presentation. You can change the position and size of an image you have added to the slide and change the alignment, size, and colors of the text.

To change the layout of your slide with an image, first click off of the slide to select the entire slide and bring the Edit tab up, then select one of our pre-made layouts under the Layout heading:

If you want to customize the slides further, you get more options if you scroll further down on the Edit tab. You can change the text color and the background color.

How to change the look of your Content slide

This is how you can change the layout of the text and image on your Content slides:

  1. In the Edit tab, under Layout, choose between the different layout options for your slide. If you have added an image to your slide, you can change the positioning of your image by changing the layout as well.

  2. Choose the preferred position of your text (left, middle or right) under "Horizontal alignment".

  3. Under "Vertical alignment", you can change the positioning of your text (top, middle, or bottom).

  4. To change the size of your text, use the - or + to increase or decrease the size.

Please Note: Text alignment is only available for content slides.

How to customize the colors of your slide

If you have a Pro or Enterprise subscription, you can change the text, line, and visualization colors by clicking on the body of the slide and bring the Edit tab up.

  1. Find the slide element you want to change and open the color swatch by clicking the colored circle. For example, on a Multiple Choice slide, you can select the response area of the slide canvas, then click on the colored circle next to the answer option to customize its color:

2. If you have added a background image to your slide, you can change the image opacity by using the slider inside the “Background color" option:

Please Note: Changes in one slide will not take effect in other slides – those will still follow the theme defaults unless you copy the slide and then change the content or slide type.

How to change font size

To change the font size on your Content and Questions slides, you can use the + or - under Text Size. For Content slides, this option can be found in the Edit tab:
