Move/resize should be undo-able
If you move an object or resize a text box that action should be on the undo stack.
1 voteThanks for the feedback. We have made some changes to ensure that moving and resizing a content block is pushed to the undo history.

Allow subdomain in the link option
you can not add a subdomain in the link option .
for example , help.slides.com it is not allowed , i need to refer subdomain . Thank You!
1 voteWe’ve always supported subdomains in links, but I believe the error you ran into is that we require a valid protocol to persist a link. For example http://help.slides.com worked but help.slides.com didn’t.
I just released an update that automatically adds the protocol if it’s left out.

Presentation timer should start only when you move off the first slide
It is common when presenting to set up your computer to present and then leave it for an extended period of time. With the current presentation view, if setup is half an hour before presentation time, your timer will be at 30 minutes before you’ve even begun your presentation.
By default, the timer should only start once you’ve moved off the first slide.
(At least having the option to make the timer behave in this way would make it usable for me.)
1 voteWe just rolled out a few major changes to the speaker view timer. Here’s what’s new:
- The timer is initially paused and starts on first navigation
- There are controls for manually starting/pausing/resetting the timer
- You can specify a time limit to see a countdown
- We added a progress bar that shows your slide progress
- If you have a countdown the progress bar has a thin line indicating the remaining time, so you can see if you’re falling behindLet us know what you think!

It would be great to implement shift+move to move on-axis
The smart snap feature is great, but on some occasion where many snaps are in the way, it would be great to have the option to shift+move on axis.
1 voteGreat idea. This has been implemented. Holding shift will only move the block along the dominant axis.
Let me know if you have an feedback about how it works.

Fix slide jumps upon undoing
Sometimes when editing text and then undoing the change, slides jumps back to a previously edited slide, which is confusing and does not let one see the effect of the undo. To reproduce: create a new deck and change the "Title text" placeholde to "First slide". Then add a second title slide and change the "Title text" to "Second Slide". Click outside the text box (to deselect it), and finally "undo". You are back to "First slide". This is confusing.
This also happens for other types of edits as well, not only text, but it is most striking when editing…
1 voteThanks for the feedback! This issue has been selected. We made another improvement to the undo history too, which should ensure that you get to actually see the change you’re undoing before switching to the previous slide in the undo history.
Let me know if you notice any errors.

Dart support
Great presentation tool! I noticed that you're missing Dart as a language for code. Any chance you can add that soon?
1 voteThanks for the suggestion! Dart was already supported but unlisted in the in the language menu—it’s been added there now.

Ability to select slides out of order during streawming
I am not seeing a mechanism to permit the ability to jump between slides in the deck during streaming. Suppose that I have multiple backup slides to address potential questions at the end of the deck. How do I jump back and forth as necessary within the viewer. Also, it is SUPER annoying that one has to scroll horizontally to reorder slides in the deck. Why isn't there a table format for this?
1 voteThanks for the suggestion. It’s already possible to jump ahead to a slide in a live streamed deck but it wasn’t documented. I’ve more info and instructions for how to do this under “Jumping to a slide” in the following help article: https://help.slides.com/knowledgebase/articles/333924-present-view-live-streaming
Our presentation format supports adding slides in two directions. Your main slides are added horizontally, but you can also add optional vertical slides underneath each slide. The slide arrange mode was built the way it was to support both horizontal and vertical slides. It’s not a very efficient use of space when there’s only slides in one direction and we’ll make sure to consider revising it.

Add correct keyboard shortcut tooltips for MacOS
Currently the tooltips describing keyboard shortcuts are describing Windows keys (SHIFT + ALT + A) but on MacOS it should be (SHIFT + OPTION + A).
1 voteThanks for letting us know! This was one me, my Mac keyboard actually has both “alt” and “option” written on the key, but that seems to be rare.
I’ve updated the tooltips to use the same shortcut formatting as the rest of the editor now so there’ll be a symbol instead of ALT written out.

Sitewide Dropbox Backup
Allow for setting up an account-wide Dropbox backup. As far as I understand, this is currently a per-deck setting.
1 voteDropbox sync is already activated at the account level. After enabling Dropbox, any future edit to any of your decks will trigger it to sync to your Dropbox account.

Full screen overview mode
When entering overview mode by hitting escape, it takes you out of full screen. Perhaps offer a button in the center of the four directional arrows for overview, or a different keyboard shortcut that allows you to view the overview mode in full screen.
0 votesThe overview mode can also be toggled via the ‘O’ key, which works when in fullscreen.
