A new update to Slides lets you bring slides from Figma into a deck with one click.

Brand designer Jamey Gannon made a commercial pitch deck template for early-stage founders raising VC capital. She built dozens of decks in her career for her own rounds or others and used this experience to design this template.

Select multiple layers in Figma Slides and apply edits to them all at once.

1) Add new template styles to your decks directly from the styles overview modal. 2) Rename and delete template styles. 3) Draft presenter notes with AI — ​“just add one line of text to your slide and let AI do the heavy lifting.” 4) You can now edit your presenter notes in Presenter View. 5) The Multi-edit is now available in Figma Slides.

A pretty wild Slides template: ​“The Infinite Scroll is a five-dimensional entity that weaves together the stories of the past, present, and future.”

I didn’t know I needed this until I saw it. Plan the presentation in FigJam, then turn it into a deck outline in Slides: ​“Think it in FigJam, present it in Figma: create a Figma Slides outline from a FigJam board with a few clicks.”

In this webinar, Designer Advocates Corey Lee and Hugo Raymond will guide you through communicating effectively through story-driven presentations and share techniques to up-level your slide designs to make your presentations and decks more compelling. ​“Good design tells a compelling story. How you convey that story can significantly impact its resonance with your audience.“

Delighted to see the internal name sneaking into a shortcut for creating a new Slides deck! BTW, both figjam.new and figma.new have also been around for a while. 

“You can get the attention of your audience and better communicate your ideas by turning them into simple, compelling stories. Join this livestream with Janis Ozolins to learn the principles of visual communication and see how to create compelling visuals in Figma Slides in a few easy steps.“

Nathan A Curtis maintained ~2,000 slides worth of workshops and talks in Figma for four years, so his feedback on Figma Slides is worth listening to. His biggest complaint is a lack of templates and styles on the Professional plan, but in the replies Slides PM Mihika Kapoor confirmed that Pro templates are coming soon.

After giving Slides a good try, Raquel Piqueras shares a few things she has been missing — a simple timer, access to sharing settings from the open presentation, slide-level components, and hotkeys to streamline the work.

The last of the ten newly announced features — hide slides to skip them!

A behind-the-scenes look into the journey of launching Figma Slides. As Mihika noted, this talk could be considered the other half of her podcast with Lenny on building zero-to-one products from a few months ago.

Day 9 brings new slick transition controls to customize the duration, easing curve, delay, etc.

Day 8. Improved language support in the Tone Dial.

Day 7 drop makes it possible to add all the slides into the deck with no need to choose right away.
