To change a whiteboard page in Canva back to a standard presentation page format, you need to use the "Collapse" option available in the editor toolbar. This action effectively "closes" the extended whiteboard view and reverts it to a compact presentation slide.
Steps to Change a Whiteboard Page to a Presentation Page
If you are working on a design that has a page currently formatted as a whiteboard and you wish to convert it back, here is the direct method based on the provided information:
- Select the Whiteboard Page: Tap or click directly on the specific whiteboard page you want to convert. This action makes the page active and brings up the contextual toolbar.
- Find the Toolbar: Look at the toolbar that appears just below the editor area after you select the page.
- Select 'Collapse': Within this toolbar, find and select the Collapse option.
Choosing "Collapse" will transform the extended whiteboard layout back into a standard size presentation slide within your design.
Handling Whiteboard Pages in Presentations
Sometimes, when viewing a presentation that includes whiteboard pages, you might find that scrolling is affected. If you encounter a presentation with a whiteboard page in it and you can't scroll smoothly or easily, there is a specific control to help navigate:
- Use the Navigation Icon: Click or tap the icon located on the lower right corner of the screen. This icon is designed to assist with navigation within presentations that contain whiteboard elements.
By using the "Collapse" function, you can manage the format of individual pages within your Canva designs, easily switching between the expansive whiteboard layout and the standard presentation slide view.
