Adjusting Brightness for One Slide Only

If you only want to adjust brightness on a single slide:

  1. Click into the specific slide you want to edit

  2. Click the Brightness button in the top navigation bar

Only the selected slide will be affected.


Adjusting Brightness for All Slides

If you want the brightness adjustment to apply to all slides:

  1. Click into the first slide of the design

  2. Make sure the LINK feature is turned ON

    • This links all slides together

Common Questions & Troubleshooting

Why did the brightness only change on one slide?

If the LINK feature was turned off, the adjustment only applies to the selected slide.

Can I undo a brightness change?

Yes. You can toggle brightness off or adjust the slider at any time.

Does brightness affect text quality?

Yes. Increasing or decreasing brightness can make text easier to read, especially on busy images.
