Presentations

A presentation in ANVL starts from your brand kit rather than from a blank template you then have to make look like you. The colours, the typefaces and the shapes are what it is built out of.

The shape of it

Make it

Pick a format, say who it is for, and get a first draft. See Make a deck.

Edit it

The chat on the left, with History, Comments and Notes beside it; the slide in the middle; the slides as thumbnails down the right. Click text on the slide to change it where it stands, or an image to replace it — everything else you ask for in the chat. Changes save by themselves: the top bar goes from Unsaved to Saving… to Saved.

Show it

Presenter view with your notes, and one click onto a projector or a TV. See Presenting.

Send it

A link, or a file. See Share and export.

On a phone

The editor works on a phone too, laid out for it: one slide at a time, full width, with the chat underneath. Use the arrows to move between slides, and tap a slide for Ask for a change, Edit text or Replace image — from your image bank, an upload or a photo. Present is in the top corner.

The things that need the width — arranging elements by hand, the thumbnail strip — stay on the computer.

It keeps reading your brand

A deck is not a picture of your brand at the moment you made it. It reads the brand kit each time it is opened, so a colour you fix later reaches decks you made months ago. See Changing your brand later.
