Variant

Select the module shape from the drop-down menu. For example, it can be Circular, rounded, or square. Note that “square” can also be a rectangle; it just means it has hard corners instead of rounded corners.

Text align

Align the titles of each slide (not the module title). We recommend using Left for most content but Center for speakers (because they are circular).

Item width and height

Input 355 (width) x 200 (height) for a standard 16:9 ratio image. This corresponds to the image size (800 x 450) that we request from clients for most rectangular images

Item spacing

10 is the standard recommended spacing.

Item title

Check this box to see the title of the content beneath the slide.

Item description

Check this box to show the content’s preview text beneath the slide.

Show Progress

For courses only, check this box to show the progress indicator in the corner of the slide.

  1. To begin, locate the Tabs - Data Filtering section.

  2. Use the + icon to add new tabs.

    • The content you pull and organize will be shown within a grid.

    • If you create multiple tabs with different filters, the Page will display each as individual tabs above the Grid for easy access.

    • You can reorder tabs by dragging and dropping them.

    • The tabs are aligned from left to right on the page, with the top tab being the first, leftmost tab.

    • If only one tab is created, it will represent the entire page, and you will see no tabs.
