What are topics and subtopics

Topics show your big ideas hidden behind a cover, while subtopics and pages organize details and reveal content at just the right moment to keep your audience engaged.

Planet topics allow you to reveal your content with movement. You can use this to branch out your content into subsections.

Page topics move in a more linear fashion, like a slideshow. You can use this when creating a sequence of content, when you don't want a big zooming effect.

Sometimes you build your presentation and decide later that you want to change the order of talking points. Luckily, reordering the topics and subtopics of your structure is easy.

Reordering

The order of your topics and subtopics appear in the left sidebar. When you click to enter a topic or subtopic, the left sidebar changes to show the order of the current view.

To reorder topics and subtopics, simply select the chosen one, drag it in the left sidebar and drop to the new order you would like them to be presented in. This will not change the position of the topics, only the order they are presented in.

Changing the position

To change a topic’s position, click and drag it to a new place on the canvas. You can also click to select a topic and move it with the arrow keys on your keyboard. This will not change the order the topics are presented in.
