Title

If you have chose a title there is a text field for the title. This text appears centered at the top of the slide.

Body

If you have chosen body there is a text field for the main content of the slide. The text you enter into this field appears centered in the middle of the slide.

Button

If you have chosen a button you can choose the text for the button and where it links to. 

To link to a confluence page select Search Page. Type the name of the page and select it from the list when you see it. To link to an external web page select Add Link and then type in the full URL for the page.

For security reasons, some browsers may block URL paths that point to files on a local file system or local networked folders. This can be overridden in your browser’s security settings but should only be done as part of a comprehensive security strategy. In most cases, it is best to host such files on dedicated web servers that use other protocols such as FTP. More information can be found in Atlassian’s documentation.


Delete a Slide

To delete a slide, simply select the trash can icon next to the slide you wish to delete. Then confirm you wish to delete it. Once deleted a slide can not be retrieved.
