  1. Click to add a new slider (if you aren’t on the first slider)
  2. Choose solid color for the main background
  3. Select white if you want a white background, or any other color you want (it doesn’t actually have to be white just because its a white board!)
  4. Choose any settings you want (slide animation and what not)
  5. Now go down to the main background area that is white

NYC TECH CLUB TIP: If you have one header or a button or whatever that is going to show up on every page…just go to the Global Settings slider and put it there so it shows up on every slide 🙂 !!

  1. Add a text layer if you want to write something
  2. Change the font to “Gloria Hallelujah” or “Permanent market -> if you want. These font looks like a writing fonts
  3. Change the animation to fade in and fade out
  4. Also in the animation tab…if you are writing font, you want to change it to char based in the drop down (watch the video for help with this)
  5. To get the white board to work, you must select the layer and go to the add-on tab above the background image and select white board
  6. Make the changes you want to make including whether you want the writing hand or pen to disappear or go to the next layer
  7. You can add drawings also. This is just another layer -> go to objects
  8. Go through the process of enabling the add-on white board
  9. Again make changes on the white board section (using the hand to write or draw, etc)
  10. After you’ve added all your layers and enabled the white board section, you must remember to time the animations accordingly in the timing section for each layer (below the background image)
  11. Once you’re done, press save

Repeat the process to create additional slider pages

NYC TECH CLUB TIP: Add audio to your white board slider by just adding a new layer > audio > and you can modify settings in the pop up. Make sure to also time it according to your animations.
