Frames are a great way to direct your audience's attention on your limitless canvas. You can also add topics and subtopics to your presentation, in order to help you organize information and dive deeper to tell your story by providing more details.
You can learn more about structuring your presentation here, all about frames here and all about topics here.
Renaming your topic title
- Click on a topic to select it and hover your cursor over the title.
- Select the text box and click on it to edit
- Delete the current text and type in the new title
- You can also change any formatting from the property bar
- Click outside the topic to save it
Rotating a topic
Click on a topic to select it and hover your cursor near the corner until the rotation icon appears. Click and drag to rotate your selection.
Structuring with layouts
Save some time and create a beautifully aligned structure for your topics and subtopics by selecting a pre-designed layout to make your presentation organized and more visually pleasing.
Using topic layouts
To use an automatic layout, select a topic. Click Topic layout on the property bar that appears. Then, from the sidebar, click on the Overview layout you’d like to use. All of your topics will move to match this layout.
Using topic layout for Video
If you are creating a presentation with topics to use with Prezi Video, you can save some time by using one of the predefined templates. With the Topic layout sidebar open, scroll down to find layouts for Prezi Video. Please note that the layouts are only applicable to topics and not to frames.
Using subtopic layouts
For subtopics you have two options:
Content
This will create some placeholders where you can customize with your own content. To use a content layout:
- Enter a topic.
- Right click anywhere and select Change topic layout from the dropdown menu.
- From the sidebar that appears, click on Content. Choose from the recommended layouts on the top, or scroll through to find one that fits your needs.
- Customize with your own text and images.
Subtopic
This will create an aligned structure for your Planet subtopics. To use a subtopic layout:
- Enter a topic.
- Right click anywhere and select Change topic layout from the dropdown menu.
- From the sidebar that appears, click on Subtopic. Choose from the recommended layouts on the top, or scroll through to find one that fits your needs.
- Sit back and watch as the subtopics automatically rearrange right on the canvas.
Custom structure
In case you’d like to opt for a custom structure, you can freely move subtopics anywhere on your canvas by simply dragging and dropping them into place. This will not change the order the subtopics are presented in, only their position within the presentation.
Deleting topics, subtopics, and pages
Want to get rid of some topics and subtopics to clean up and organize your presentation? Luckily, deleting elements from your presentation’s structure is easy in Prezi Present. Just follow these few steps.
Select the topic, subtopic on your canvas and press BACKSPACE/DELETE on your keyboard. You can also right-click (CTRL/CMD+click) and select “delete” from the context menu. Alternatively, you can click the three dots in the topic/subtopic thumbnail in the left sidebar and select Delete from the dropdown menu.
Want to get back what you just deleted? Press CMD/CTRL+Z to undo the action.
