Toolbar

The toolbar helps to perform common actions for apps and elements on your slides. It is also useful when ensuring items are styled and aligned correctly. You can find the toolbar at the top of the slide editor and it will change based on the element you have selected.

When selecting text, on the left hand side of the toolbar you will see the font that is currently applied to the text element. When clicking on it, you will see the font panel appear allowing you to search through over a thousand fonts as well as see any fonts that you have uploaded to your account.

On the right side of the toolbar you will find an option to Animate. The animate button will open up the Animation panel on the right side of the editor. This will allow you to apply Animations to any element within the slide. When selecting a text element you will also see an option to apply Text animations. For more information on the Animation Panel you can check out the following article - Animation Panel

The Copy Style and Paste Style buttons are useful for copying the styles of a selected element to another element of the same type. For example you can copy the style of a text block or menu or even of a RSS or Social media feed and copy it to another element on the slide, or even to an element on another slide opened in another tab. To copy the style, select the item in the Slide Editor then click Copy Style. Then select the item that you would like to copy the slide to in the Slide Editor on the current slide or in another slide in another tab and click the Paste Style button. The style should be copied over to the selected element.

To adjust the positioning of your item, or expand it to the full page, you can click on the Position button on the right side of the toolbar. Once clicked, you will see a position panel appear on the left side of the editor.

The position panel will allow you to arrange the layer position and if you want to move it forward or backward. As well as alignment options, width, height, x and y coordinates on the slide as well as the rotation of the item.

The align buttons can help position the selected element in a position on the slide relative to the slide dimensions. For example the Align to left edge button positions the selected elements left side at the left edge of the slide. The Align to right edge button aligns the right side of the selected element to the right edge of the slide. The Align to horizontal center button will position the center of the selected item in the horizontal center of the slide from where it is currently positioned when you select the option. Align to center slide will position the selected element in the vertical and horizontal center of the slide. Use the top/bottom align buttons to align the selected item relative to the top/bottom of the slide.

The group align buttons will appear in the Position panel when you have multiple items selected. To select multiple items you can hold the shift key on your keyboard and click on each item. Once the item is clicked it will show as selected and you will see the group align buttons appear within the toolbar. The group align buttons help to align the selected elements. You can left align, center align, right align, distribute horizontally, or perform similar actions for vertically aligning the elements.

You can view and adjust the size of the selected elements by use the Width and Height options in the toolbar.

The position of the selected element within the slide editor can be accessed at the bottom of the toolbar. This can be useful to see exactly where an item is positioned vertically and horizontally on the slide for perfect alignment, as well as to make small adjustments to the position of an element to ensure that everything is aligned.

Stretch to fill will stretch the item to the entire width and height of the current slide.
