Changing the Duration of a Slide

  • Updated
By default, the duration of a Powtoon slide is 10 seconds. Depending on the scene that you are creating, you may want to increase or decrease the duration of a specific slide.

 
In the Powtoon Studio, you need to be working in Create mode in order to change the duration of a slide:

  1. Position the playhead ( playhead.png ) on the timeline at the point where you want to add seconds. This will probably be towards the end of the slide. In the example below, the playhead is positioned at 9 seconds.
