Slides & Templates

With viewneo, you can create custom content using slides and templates in the built-in Content Designer. Both can contain text, images, videos, websites, and shapes.

What Are Slides and Templates?

Section titled “What Are Slides and Templates?”
  • Slides are individual content designs that can be added to playlists
  • Templates are reusable designs with placeholders that can generate multiple slides with different content

For a detailed comparison, see Difference: Slides vs. Templates.
