Appearance

Storyboard overview ​

The Storyboard is where you build and edit course content. Top to bottom, it's organized into three regions: the navigation bar, the modules panel, and the editor area.

Across the top of the editor:

  • Left — links for switching between Storyboard, Course content, and Preview.
  • Middle — the course title. Click it to open a modal for editing.
  • Right — the Publish button, language switch, notification bell, help center link, and an X to close the editor and return to your library.

Modules panel ​

Just below the navigation bar, the modules panel lists every module in your course as a horizontal row. The first one is the start screen.

  • Click a module to switch the editor below to it.
  • Double-click to rename.
  • Drag to reorder.
  • The X in a module's top-right corner deletes it.
  • The + button on the left of the row adds a new module.

The start screen is the exception: it's fixed in place and can't be renamed, dragged, or deleted.

Editor area ​

Below the modules panel sits the editor area, where you shape the open module's content. The contents change with the module type — slides for custom modules, questions for quiz modules — but the layout is the same:

  • Left: outline. A navigable list of slides or questions inside the module. Click an item to open it for editing.
  • Center: edit panel. A WYSIWYG view of the current slide or question, where you place components, write text, and lay things out.
  • Right: properties. Settings for the currently selected item — a slide, a component, a transition, or the module itself.

Asset manager ​

The bottom-left of the edit panel has a button that opens the asset manager as a panel beneath the edit panel. From there you can browse and pick the course's images, videos, icons, and audio without leaving the slide. See Asset manager for details.
