Add on the Left, Refine on the Right

Make Every Deck in Your Colors and Typefaces

A new deck takes your business’s theme: its colors, its typefaces and their weights, and its spacing. Change the theme in Refine Design, adjust any part of it, or save it as your own. Each deck keeps the theme it was made in.

How Slides compares

Everything. One Price.

Everything included in Calisto Slides.

Presentations
  • One library with five lenses: Recent, My Presentations, Shared With Me, Starred and Trash.
  • Search reaches titles and the text on every slide; sort by opened, modified, created or name.
  • Each row shows its owner, when you last opened it, its slide count and whether it is shared.
  • Hubs in the sidebar narrow the library to one Hub; Move To… files a deck in a Folder of a Hub.
  • Trash keeps a deck for 30 days; only its owner restores it or deletes it for good.
Home
  • A describe box, the decks you were working on, a Jump To row and the activity of your decks.
  • Comments for You: threads assigned to you, and threads where someone mentioned or answered you.
  • The storage your account has used.
Starting a Deck
  • From a template, from a theme, blank, Build It for Me, or Import.
  • Every start opens a new deck that is saved only when you name it; leaving with changes asks first.
  • Build It for Me: an outline you edit, reorder and trim, then the deck built from that outline.
  • A new deck takes the account’s theme and your own deck shape and default transition.
  • PPTX import: shapes onto the shape library, tables with merges, speaker notes, pictures stored in your files.
Templates, Designs and Themes
  • A template is a design in a theme: Calisto’s, your own and the ones you bought.
  • Templates filter by deck type, industry, style and color; designs come as whole decks and as single slides.
  • Save as Template works on any deck, saved or not; Save Slide as Design or as Template from a slide’s menu.
  • Edit Template opens the template itself; using one never changes it.
  • Library: every design, theme and template of yours for Slides.
The Editor
  • The left rail adds: Slide, Text, Shapes, Media, Table, Chart and From Calisto; shapes, lines, text and tables drag onto the slide.
  • The right rail refines: Format, Design, Assist, Comments, History and Info.
  • On the slide, a chip with at most five controls for the selection; everything else in Format.
  • The object menu: clipboard, stacking order, group and ungroup, flip and lock.
  • Notes, slide count, Grid view, zoom, grid lines, rulers, smart guides, snap to grid and full screen along the bottom.
  • Search Actions (⌘K) and the shortcuts list (⌘/) index every command; each command has one home.
On a Slide
  • Multi-select, marquee, align, distribute, nudge, and paste in place.
  • 27 library shapes, lines and connectors; text with bold, italic, links and color.
  • Tables with rows, columns, merged cells and a header row.
  • Charts typed in, or linked to a range of a sheet and refreshed from it.
  • Images with replace, crop, fit, border and opacity; video, embeds and audio; your Depot files.
  • A passage of a document placed on a slide and refreshed from it.
  • Links to a web address, a slide or an action; alt text; fields for slide number, count and date; merge fields.
  • Backgrounds in a color, a gradient or an image; a transition with its direction on each slide; object animations.
  • Sections, skipped slides, and find and replace.
Theme and Brand
  • Refine Design: Calisto’s and your own themes, a dial for every painted part, Save as Theme, Customize.
  • A deck keeps the theme it was made in, and is repainted only when you change it.
  • Your brand’s own typeface, drawn in the editor, the published deck and every export.
  • Brand Check reads the deck against your brand guidelines when you ask.
  • Page size for each deck: 16:9, 4:3, A4 or Letter.
Writing Help
  • Build It for Me drafts an outline from a description.
  • Improve Text rewrites a selection in your brand’s voice; Describe This Slide drafts a slide from a sentence.
Working Together
  • Several people edit at once: two people moving two shapes both land, undo is each person’s own.
  • Everyone with the deck open shows on Share.
  • Comments on a slide or a point on it, with replies, resolve, mentions and assignment.
  • Versions: named versions and sessions, compare, preview and restore.
  • Share with people to view, comment or edit; a reader cannot change the deck anywhere.
Presenting
  • One player for the desk, the audience window, the published deck and the phone.
  • Transitions and animations, pen, laser and black screen; the screen stays awake.
  • Present from the start or from this slide; skipped slides stay out.
  • Presenter View: your notes, the next slide and a timer, driving the audience window.
  • The audience’s questions, answered from Presenter View.
  • Present in Live puts the deck on the meeting’s stage (with Live).
Publish
  • A link, a QR code and three embeds: inline, slideshow, and follow the presenter.
  • Who Read It: who opened the published deck and for how long.
  • Unpublish and the link stops working.
Send and Attach
  • One Send dialog: Mail’s composer, Inbox, a Live meeting or Connect.
  • Attach to a deal (with Deals); a deck made for a deal, a proposal (with Proposals) or a course lesson (with University).
  • On a client project (with Velocity), or shared with a client to read and comment in their portal (with Navigator).
  • Create Task: a follow-up through Dispatch, linked back to the deck.
  • A deck plays on a TV as its pages, with Display.
Export
  • PDF, PPTX, PNG, JPEG and SVG, drawn from the deck itself.
  • PPTX keeps speaker notes, sections and each weight of your typeface.
  • A Confidential or Restricted deck carries its classification watermark.
On a Phone
  • Home, Presentations, Templates and Library in the tab bar.
  • Read a deck, present it with notes and a timer, comment, share, publish, rename and send.
  • A template, a description or shared text becomes a deck you read, present and save.
  • Notifications open the deck on its comment; Reply and Mark as Done from a comment’s notice, Who Read It from a reader’s.
  • Shortcuts: New Presentation, Recent, Shared With Me and Templates; widgets: Comments for You and Recent Presentations.
  • A .pptx shared to Calisto is imported and opens.
  • Decks kept on the device to read and present with no signal, when you choose; a comment written offline is sent on reconnect.
Settings and Preferences
  • Business, design, sign-in, locations, currencies and taxes: the one business record.
  • Your own new-deck shape, default transition, speaker notes while editing and where Share starts, the same in every business.
  • Which comment notices reach you, set by each person.
Honest answers

Questions about Calisto Slides

Yes. A .pptx opens as a deck you keep editing: its shapes, tables with merged cells, speaker notes and pictures come with it. A deck also exports back to PPTX, PDF or images, with its notes and sections.

You describe the deck, Build It for Me drafts an outline, and you edit, reorder or remove its slides before anything is built. The deck is then built from exactly the outline you kept, in your theme, and is saved only when you name it.

Yes. Two people editing two parts of a slide both keep their changes, each person’s undo is their own, and everyone with the deck open shows on Share. A person invited to view or comment cannot change it.

No. They play when you present and on the published deck, but a PPTX export carries the slides without them.

A phone reads, presents, comments on, sends and saves a deck. Laying out slides is done on a computer.

Slides is included in Calisto Work, one subscription per person. The price box on this page reads the live catalog.
