Editing a storyboard

You can edit a storyboard by using one of the following options:

  • Edit the current storyboard
  • Add, delete, or copy slides
  • Make a copy
  • Create a new version

To edit the current storyboard

  1. Open a storyboard.
  2. From the bottom menu bar, select Edit > Edit Current .

If a storyboard is not active yet, only the draft copy is available for editing. If a storyboard that you are editing was already activated earlier, separate draft and active copies reside in the same location as that of the active storyboard. After you activate the draft copy, it is merged with the active copy.

To add, delete, or copy slides in an existing storyboard

  1. Open a storyboard.
  2. On the top menu bar, click Slide, and select one of the following options:
    • New—Add a new slide to a storyboard by selecting a slide template. A new slide is added after the current slide. 
    • Delete—Remove the current slide from your storyboard after confirmation.
    • Copy—Create a copy of the current slide. The title of the copy slide is same as the original slide followed by Copy. You can change the title of a slide from the slide settings. You cannot copy a title slide because each storyboard can have only one title slide.

To copy a storyboard

  • While editing—From the top menu bar, select Storyboard > Copy.
  • While viewing—From the bottom menu bar, select Edit > Copy .

Copying a storyboard creates a separate copy of the storyboard and opens in edit mode to make the required changes. The copied storyboard has the name of the original storyboard, appended with "(Copy)." The updates you make to the copy do not affect the original storyboard. The copied storyboard is not linked to the original storyboard from the Version History menu in the left menu bar.

When you copy a storyboard, the access settings are not copied.

To create a new version of a storyboard

  1. Open a storyboard.
  2. Select Edit > Create New Version from the bottom menu bar.
    A new version of the current storyboard is created, and the new version is linked to the original version. The draft copy of the new version resides in the same location as that of the previous active version. You can make the required changes to the new version, and save it as draft or activate it. 
  3. To see all the versions of a storyboard, from the left menu bar, open the Version History menu.
