How to add a slide in Zoho Show

Add a new slide

Slides are the main component of a presentation. They contain placeholders within which you can place your content, such as text, pictures, and shapes. When you add a new slide to your presentation, it automatically follows the same layout and theme as the preceding slide (layout is the arrangement of placeholders in a slide). You can also create Custom Layouts, if required.

By default, the first slide will follow the Title Slide layout, and all the subsequent slides will use the Title and Content layout. 

  1. Open the required presentation and insert a slide in any of the following ways:

    1. Click the + SLIDE button in the top-left corner of the screen.
    2. Right click on a slide in the thumbnail panel below which you want to include the slide and select New Slide from the drop-down menu.



    3. Select the slide in the thumbnail panel below which you want to add a slide and press Enter/ Return on your keyboard.

  2. Click any placeholder on the slide to add your content or use the thumbnail icons to insert a picture, media file, table, or chart.
  3. You can further format the slide and its objects the way you want using the Format pane.
