Link to another slide
Provide ability to link to another slide instead of just a website. I'd love to use this format for a portfolio but don't want to make others have to scroll through to find what they want.
60 votesYou can link to another slide by changing the link “Target” from “Website” to a specific slide number.
We recommend naming any slides that you want to link to using the Slide Settings UI. That way you can more easily target and link to the correct slide.

Import slides
Just like we can "download" the content of a slide, it would be nice to be able to "upload" the content of a slide.
67 votesYou can now import slides from reveal.js! All you have to do is paste the markup of your presentation into the import panel. More info is available here: http://slides.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/271213-import-from-reveal-js
I’m marking this one as completed since it addresses the original idea. Filed a new idea for adding PDF import: http://slides.uservoice.com/forums/175819-general/suggestions/4786790-import-slides-from-pdf

Custom HTML and custom Fonts
I'd love the ability to add custom code, like for embedding an iFrame.
Also, be able to use custom fonts, usually via services like Typekit, Google Fonts etc.16 votesThe HTML edit has since been added and it’s now possible to define custom fonts using the CSS editor (Pro-only).

Autosave.
Its been a couple of times I sleep my computer and when I'm back I get a saving error.
Also, as a docs and iWork user I must admit I'm getting kind of used to autosave. I think it'd be a good (and huge, I bet, in terms of programming, storage, etc) addition. The "complementary" tools that usually come with autosave would be pretty good too (version control being the biggest).
I think it's a great goal though to strive to later in the future.
20 votesThere’s now an auto-save toggle in the editor sidebar!

Support right to left languages
I suggest support right to left languages: supporting bullets on the right, combining english and non english writing from the right, transitioning the slides to the left instead of right, etc.
1 voteWe’ve added a RTL mode. Look for an option in the Settings panel of the editor.

Create an Embeddable version
Something like JS Fiddle has, so I can embed inside of a blog post or on my website somewhere.
5 votesYou can embed decks with a special url, just append /embed/ to the deck’s URL.
For example, if the original deck URL is:
http://www.rvl.io/hakim/theming/
you can embed it with:
http://www.rvl.io/hakim/theming/embed/Currently, you will have to manually build that URL. We are working on making this easily accessible from the UI.
Update3: This is now available!
An example of use is here:

Don't darken background when the 'Slide background' menu is opened.
https://gfycat.com/AnotherIllCirriped
When I try to change the background colour I can't accurately see it until I close the menu. It darkens the slide and doesn't provide show the accurate colour.
1 voteThanks for the feedback. We’ve changed how this works so that only part of the screen is darkened while applying a slide background. Hope that helps!

Position the grid in front of the slide
In the editor settings one you can check the "Grid" option which "displays a grid behind the slide to help aligning". It would be nice to have an option for positioning the grid in front of the slide because when I want to overlap several larger elements then the first one already covers the grid and since that part of the grid is not visible anymore it consequentially doesn't help aligning anymore (apart from snapping).
3 votesGreat idea! We’ve added a new option for this in the Editor Settings. Let us know if you encounter any issues.

Fragment on outlines (nested lists)
Add the possibility to add fragments to the lines of an outline, ie a nested ordered or un ordered list. This already work at the first level of a list but doesn't work if you have a lists inside a lists inside a list...
- first
- first on first
- second on first
- second
- first on second
4 votesWe just released a major redesign of the fragment mode to address a few different issues:
1. There’s a new sidebar where you can see all elements on the slide listed out. This lets you reach overlapping elements and enables you to create nested fragments (useful for nested bullet lists).
2. As soon as there are two or more fragments, a new interface will appear that allows you to preview fragments without leaving the current view.
3. There’s a new button for resetting all fragments.
Let us know if you run into any issues or have any comments.
Thanks!

Speaker notes react to user agent
Tried using the speaker notes in VR (High Fidelity), but a problem is that Slides.com seem to react to the user agent of the browser in a way that makes it difficult to use the speakernotes. If the user agent contains "mobile" it seems to default to the mobile, touch screen, setting even if the screen is large.
If there was a way to override the mobile version by using some kind of string in the url (like "?not-mobile") it would be possible to use the notes even on devices that happens to for some reason send the mobile user…

New drag and drop slide arrangement broke my edit workflow
The new drag and drop feature for the slide arrangement is awesome, but it broke my editing workflow.
I move between slides a lot during editing, so I used to press "esc" -> "arrow keys" -> "enter" to move from one slide to another. With the current version (Feb 2018) "enter" is not recognized anymore when opening the "slides overview" in edit mode.
Works perfectly in presentation mode, btw.
3 votesThanks for the feedback! We’ve revised the keyboard navigation so you should be able to use the arrow keys followed by Enter to jump between slides again.

Add Twig to the list of languages for syntax highlighting
Twig is a pretty popular template engine for PHP and it misses in the list of selectable languages in the code editor although highlight.js supports it: https://github.com/isagalaev/highlight.js/blob/master/src/languages/twig.js
Would be great, having it on the list.
3 votesAdded! :)

BUG: Objects move when entering text box
Suppose there's an object (e.g., arrow) directly below a text box containing LaTeX math stuff, in such a way that:
when entering the text box to edit the text, the formula expands to the original LaTeX source, taking up more text lines than the formula itself.The textbox is made larger (expanded downwards), and the object directly below it is pushed down. When leaving the text box, the LaTeX source is replaced by the much shorter formula, the textbox shrinks, but the object below it doesn't return to the original position.
1 voteThis should be fixed now. Can you reload the editor and give it another try? Thanks.

code padding
It would be nice if I could set padding for code blocks
1 voteThis has been added! If you’ve got the editor open you’ll need to reload to see the change.

Let fragments fade out partially to lead focus of observers
I would like to let fragments on slides readable but losing some opacity when fading in the next fragment. So viewers follow my speed of speech, but may still see the last topic on that slide.
6 votesWe’ve added two new fragment styles for this. The first option starts with the element visible and then fades it out 50%.
The other starts with the element hidden, shows it when it is the current fragment, and then fades out 50% afterwards.

\underbrace support
Hi,
I want to use \underbrace in my slides to add some notes to maths.
Version 0.8.0 of KaTeX added support for \overbrace and \underbrace (see https://github.com/Khan/KaTeX/releases/tag/v0.8.0) so it should be fine if you update KaTeX to the latest one.Thanks,
pandaman9 votesKaTeX has been updated to 0.10.0, so we now support \underbrace as well as all of the functions listed here: https://khan.github.io/KaTeX/docs/supported.html
As part of this we’ve made it easier to update KaTeX versions in the future so we can avoid falling so far behind again 🚀

Sort decks in folders
Hi,
I love using slides and have a lot of decks in it. I use it for very different subjects. It would be really nice if you can put your decks in folders!
Kind reagrds
Henk7 votesHey! We’ve made it possible to organize decks using tags. Each tag has a unique URL so that you can share them.

Make the "Edit" button a link to support opening decks in new tabs
I often want to open up multiple decks for review/editing. I'd like to be able to "ctrl-click" the Edit icon to open in a new tab... but since they are buttons and not links, this doesn't work. Can you change them to a link styled as a button to support this? Thanks!
3 votesGood feedback, thanks! That button has been swapped out for a link.
