Date/Time

Expected Behaviour for Date Time Overlay

Vibe shows the Date Time Overlay based on the time zone of each device. When you’re previewing slides (including using the 'Preview As' dropdown), you’ll see the date/time in your own local time zone — it won’t switch to another screen’s time zone. As long as each screen’s time zone is set correctly in its system settings, everything will show up at the right time, wherever it is in the world.

Design

  1. Shape - Change the background color of the shapes/ blocks by using the color picker feature to elevate the visual appeal of your slides. By effectively utilizing color and opacity, you can enhance the overall design and impact of your presentation

  2. Date - You can also change the date's block color by using the color picker features - pick the color from the hue and/or slide through the opacity
