The Navigation Bar

The Navigation Bar

The Navigation Bar will appear at the top of your screen after logging into the myiDecide Builder and choosing whether you’d like to build a new presentation or edit an existing one. This allows you to easily jump to different steps in the building process at any point.

The iDecide Logo #

Clicking the iDecide logo in the far left of the navigation bar will bring you back to the screen asking whether you’d like to build a new presentation or edit an existing one.

Clicking build a new presentation will launch a new template where you can select to Start from Scratch, select a Pre-Made Template, Upload a PowerPoint, or purchase a Custom Build.

Presentations #

The first tab in the Navigation Bar is Presentations. This tab will take you to a list of all your existing presentations.

From the list, you will be able to edit, duplicate, or get help building any of your presentations.

Slides #

The second tab in the Navigation Bar is Slides. This is where you are able to view all your slides, drag and drop slide templates into your presentation, reorder slides, or select a slide to edit.

Adding Slides

From the Navigation Bar at the top of the screen, select the Slide tab. If you want to add a blank slide, simply click the + button(Add Slide) at the end of your slide list.

If you prefer to add a pre-made slide template, drag-and-drop your desired template from the left-hand menu under Templates into your Slide list.

Important note: Your presentation must start with an “Intro” slide and finish with a “Closing” slide.

Music #

The third tab in the navigation bar is Music. Here you can choose what kind of music you’d like to play softly behind your narration.

If this isn’t something you want, no problem! Simply choose the “No Music” option.

Review #

The fourth step in the navigation bar is the Review Tab. Arguably the most important step in the design process, this is where you will watch and review your presentation just as your viewers will— interactions and all!

This is your chance to make sure everything shows up exactly how you’d like, proofread your text, and try out the flow of your presentation. You may want to watch your presentation a handful of times to ensure you’ve reviewed all possible outcomes.

Publish #

The final step in the navigation bar is the Publish Tab. Once you’ve made it here, pat yourself on the back! Your presentation is ready for the world to see once you hit the Publish button.

Once published, the presentation will be automatically added to your iDecide account for sending.

It will also be available to share with other iDecide users via its iDecide ID.
