Slide

Your presentations: slides, sections, themes and full-screen slide show.

Slide installs on your device (Windows and Linux) and opens with your Prophetix account, the same one as for the web applications.

Slide builds your presentations from ready-made layouts: title, title and content, two contents, three columns, quote, big number...

Text, images and shapes can be placed freely; themes and color palettes give the whole its style. Sections group the slides, which can be reordered by drag and drop, and comments are resolved as reviews go on.

The slide show starts in full screen. The text of the slides can be exchanged with PowerPoint, and presentations can be exported to HTML.
