Improve spotlight mode (slide builds, pyramid ordering)

Olivier Margerand

Hello, for the slide with the content chronologically according to a pyramid, Gamma starts at the top. I would like to start at the bottom and work my way up to the top.

Slide builds in present mode (spotlight Mode option to show full card)

Ricky Bailey

I'd love a spotlight mode option that as you go through the card it shows the full items you've already passed, instead of just the current item with them in the background

Click-triggered animations

Kristina France

I would love for gamma to include click-triggered animations, especially for text. The "Spotlight" feature at the moment is incredibly annoying in that it shows a faded out preview of whats to come. For educational content, this is very inconvenient, as students can already guess the answer before you've revealed it. I'm a teacher and I love Gamma! But at the moment when I need click-triggered animations I have to go back to powerpoint which makes me sad :(

Thanks Kristina. We've thought about creating a setting that allows future elements to be hidden entirely. Sounds like that could be helpful?

Kristina France

Nik Payne (Gamma design) I would love for that to be an option! It gives you more control over how you present your content. Especially when you are lecturing about a new topic, you want to be able to elicit student responses before the information is revealed on the slide. Thanks! :D

Also, the current design of spotlight doesn't really make sense to me. What's the functionality of having a blurred out version of future elements? It's unique, but I can't think of when it would be useful in a presentation.

Improve spotlight mode to be compatible with clickers

Ayman Elsawah

I've presented a few times with Gamma now and it's still not super smooth. Why? Mainly because spotlight (my favorite feature) is not compatible with:
* Nested Cards
* Videos
* Subtitles
As a result, I have to turn spotlight on and off throughout the preso, which defeats the purpose. Can we tune this?

Improve present mode animations

Jonathan Paikoff

I'd like to be able to set when something with appear. I.e. just the title, then I click and additional content comes on the slide, until it is all there. 
Actually I want Gamma to set it for me. And I can edit.
Thank you,
Jonathan Paikoff

Hi Nik, Thanks! That's helpful.

hi Jonathan Paikoff have you tried spotlight mode? (press 's' in present mode)

PPT의 에미네이션 기능 추가 요청

dulos Kim

레이어에 내용이 한 카드에 모두 뜨니 설명하면서 시청자들이 집중하는데 한계가 있어요. 설명할 때 그 속도에 맞추어 글귀나 그림이 차례로 뜨게 만드는 기능을 추가해 주었으면 합니다.

Spotlight Mode set at Card Level

Jeff Pawlow

Allow us to turn Spotlight Mode on/off for a specific slide/card. This should be a setting at the card level, not a global function.

Hilary (CX @ Gamma)

Jeff Pawlow you can press 's' on your keyboard to turn spotlight off and on while presenting.

Jeff Pawlow

Hilary (CX @ Gamma) - I get that, but it’s not optimal as a presenter because then I have to think about that while I’m delivering. Ideally, I could set it and forget about it. :-)

Hilary (CX @ Gamma)

Jeff Pawlow That's completely fair - I see where you're coming from! :)
