Customize Flipchart Pages

Once a flipchart is created, there are several ways you can personalize the aspect of it:

Check the three ways to change it.

The title box at the top of the flipchart comes with a few editing options:

  • Title edit – Click the title box to change the text
  • Font colour – Move the cursor over the title box. You have here 6 choices of colour to choose from
  • Size of the title box – Move the cursor over the title box and click on the “+” to enlarge the box or on “-” to shrink it.
  • Size and alignment of the text – Click on the little arrow at the right of the box

These options are available when the design mode is enabled. See below (Toolbar buttons section), how to enable/disable it.

Edit the flipchart page title

Click on the “Page” button in the toolbar to access a dedicated page editing menu.

From here, you can manage all page-related edits for example duplicate the page, create a new page in the same activity, or rename the current page.

See more on this topic in “Page management”.
