The slide canvas is a visual editor:

• Double-click text to edit inline
• Drag to reposition elements
• Resize handles to adjust dimensions
• Right-click for context menu (duplicate, delete, arrange, layout options)

Slide Management

The slide panel on the left shows all slides:

• Drag to reorder slides
• Right-click for options (duplicate, delete, layout, skip in presentation)
• Add slide with the + button (choose a layout)

Themes & Layouts

• Layouts define where content goes on each slide (title, content, two-column, blank, etc.)
• Master slides define the base design for all slides using that layout
