FAQ

Can I adjust my slide margins?

No, this is not something that is supported in Lev Memo today.

Can I style my entire presentation at once?

We support some general theme settings for the entire Memo, including the color of the slide background, accent, fonts, borders, and so on. You can also set the format of the footer for the entire presentation. Learn more in our article on a slide's general settings.

You cannot set alignment and/or the accent size across the entire Memo though.
