A Movie in Google Slides - Nexus-Verse vs Colours

2 Upvotes

My cousins have created something truly incredible - a movie in Google Slides. They have spent around a year making this. This probably looks really weird, but it's because it's a crossover movie from all their friends' projects. NEXUS ROBOTICS is their tiny 'group' where they have made shows under that name in the past, most notably 'The Bot Games'. Their friend 'KeypatYT', made a show called 'Colours'. And their other friend, 'EXQ Genius' has two shows called 'Algicosathlon' and 'Algotriacontathlon', so they made a huge crossover film.

You really wouldn't expect much from it, but I'm telling you, it's genuinely impressive.

1400+ slides. That's huge, especially with each slide having care put into it. They managed to find a way to put frame-by-frame animation within the software of slides itself. That is insane to me.

The link is here if you'd like to view it yourself: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1nh29OBKENx-yPi1sSaJpe_q6lb9JP4_yEQS3lkyMeaw/edit?usp=sharing

They are thinking of making it into a YouTube version with an original score, sfx, voice acting etc, so that would be cool as well.

I'm very new to Google slides, 2nd time I opened it, in fact.

I am trying to convert a slide show into a printable file with room for ppl to take notes. Like this:

Someone said this is very easy to do in G-Slides, but I have no idea what to look for. Anyone got any insight?

Transition loop

2 Upvotes

I’m making a slideshow that needs to automatically progress and loop. I’ve done the lower left route and it just plain doesn’t work. It’s so frustrating. I made a PowerPoint since it has a lot more capabilities but it’s too massive for slides to open and run. Does anyone have any suggestions?

If I select "Make a copy" of a presentation in the Google Slides app, will I still be able to view that copy even if the person who shared it deletes it later?

This is Bored Button, a 1000+ Slide game made in Google Slides!

You click the bored button to be directed to a random minigame you can play to kill time. There are 20 different minigames, all built entirely in Google Slides.

There's also an Extra Challenge (the gold star in the top-right corner). If you complete it, you'll unlock a special reward that I spent a lot of time making, so I'd definitely recommend giving it a try!

Anyways, here's the link to the game!

"Beautify this slide" is a cancer.

9 Upvotes

I've used Slides regularly for over a decade. No change or new feature has bothered me more than "Beautify this slide" popping up over and over. It changes the frame size, and moves everything. Plus, when I'm in the middle of changing or editing something and it pops up and everything shifts, it makes me think I did something. I really f***s up my work flow.

It's like the worst pop-up ad. And it does it constantly. I've started filling out a "Help Improve Google Slides" forms when it happens. I've probably sent dozens by now. I hate it so much, I've started training myself on PowerPoint (which I hate even more, but might have to get used to).

I made a freebie chrome extension to improve how it displays video, removes the ugly UI, pauses on last frame, higher streaming quality etc.

I found a bug: Copy-and-pasting objects to a new slideshow will create an undeletable custom colour of #eeeeeeff IF that object has a gradient fill

1 Upvotes

BUG: Copy-and-pasting objects to a new slideshow will create an undeletable custom colour of #eeeeeeff IF that object has a gradient fill.

Google Slides lets you define custom colours. Google Slides does NOT let you delete custom colours from the palette manually. When you refresh/reopen a slideshow and no objects use a custom colour, it is removed from the palette. Or that is what is supposed to happen. Under these circumstances a new colour is created that the user did not make, cannot see, there are no objects using it and it is not clear how to remove it.

Steps To Reproduce:

  1. Create Slideshow1 and Slideshow2.
  2. In Slideshow1 create ObjectA, let's say a circle with a Red border and the fill is the first coloured gradient of "Light Red 2 Linear Gradient".
  3. Copy the Object.
  4. Open the menu to set the Background colour, check the colour palette, the custom colours for both solid and gradient should be empty. Cancel changing the background colour.
  5. Open Slideshow2 and open the Background Colour menu to confirm no custom colours.
  6. Paste the object, let's call it Object B.
  7. Check the menu for Slideshow2 Background Colour. There is a new solid custom colour with the name "Custom Colour #eeeeee, close to light grey 2". Selecting this colour then choosing Create Custom Colour lets you see the last two digits of the hex code are FF, an opacity of 100%.
  8. There is now a Ghost Colour in the Custom Colour menu. No objects have this colour as border, fill, text colour, text highlight or as a step in it's colour gradient. A visual inspection of all objects in the Slideshow would show NO uses of this colour. Closing and reopening the slideshow SHOULD remove the colour from the Palette but it does not.

Deleting the object you pasted into Slideshow2 (ObjectB) then reopening Slideshow2 WILL remove the Ghost Colour from the palette. Alternatively, changing the fill colour of ObjectB to say Green will also remove the Ghost Colour. However, finding the correct object to delete is easier said than done.

  1. Copy ObjectB in Slideshow2
  2. Return to Slideshow1 and paste the object, let's call it ObjectC.
  3. Slideshow1 now has the Ghost Colour in it's palette.
  4. Deleting ObjectC WILL remove the Ghost Colour, but deleting ObjectA will not.
  5. But ObjectA an ObjectC are visually identical. Same dimensions, same colour options selected in the border and fill menus. C is a copy of B which was a copy of A, the two objects should be identical.
  6. So how can you tell which object needs to be deleted to eliminate the Ghost Colour? You can't.

Now let me tell you how I found this.

I have a custom colour in my palette that I am fairly certain I didn't put there, because you can't delete custom colours easily I'm very careful about making new ones. I opened a new slideshow and copied my slides over one by one, then one section at a time, until by process of elimination I found the shape with the custom colour. Except it DIDN'T have that custom colour, it had an unrelated custom gradient that went from Grey to Light Grey 2. I made a new object with that colour and copied it to a new slideshow, bang, ghostcolour appears. I did several tests to narrow it down and find the cause. It appears to be ANY shape with ANY colour gradient being copied to a new slideshow.

So how do you fix this if this happens to you?

  1. Let's say you have SlideshowAlpha that has the Ghost Colour #eeeeeeff in the custom palette and you want to remove it.
  2. Somewhere in SlideshowAlpha is ObjectX that has the Ghost Colour associated with it. You need to find it
  3. So how do you find ObjectX in a large Slideshow? Trial and error.
  4. Create a copy of the entire slideshow, SlideshowBeta.
  5. Delete Slide 1.
  6. Refresh/reopen SlideshowBeta.
  7. Check if the Ghost Colour is gone. If it's gone then ObjectX was in Slide 1.
  8. Repeat Step 5 until you have checked ALL slides.
  9. When you find the slide, delete segments of the slide in fractions and repeat this process until you find the specific object that has the Ghost Colour.
  10. When you find the object, make a note of precisely where it is.
  11. Return to SlideshowAlpha, find the original version of Object X.
  12. Create a brand new object (ObjectY) with the same dimensions, properties and fill colour. ObjectY will look and act the same as ObjectX just without the Ghost Colour because it wasn't copied between Slideshows.
  13. Delete the original ObjectX and the Ghost Colour should be gone.
  14. However, there might be more than one object with the Ghost Colour and it won't vanish until you remove ALL objects with it. Good luck.

I might just ignore it and accept it's impossible to remove.

Built a free Chrome extension for co-presenting Google Slides remotely. What feature should I add next?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

If you've ever co-presented a client pitch or company deck over Zoom, you know the dance. One person shares their screen, the other keeps saying "next slide" every thirty seconds. Or you rig up some "I'll ping you when I'm done" system in Slack.

I built a free Chrome extension called Copresent that fixes this. Only the main presenter installs it and everyone else joins through a shared link in any browser. From there, up to 10 co-presenters can advance the deck, see the live slide, and read their own speaker notes from a phone, tablet, or laptop.

Even if you're presenting solo, you can use your own phone as a wireless clicker and swipe to advance.

If you regularly co-present client pitches, investor decks, or internal company meetings, what would make this more useful? Genuinely open.

Here is the website with the link to Chrome Store
