Creating a Timeline in Your Keynote Presentation

Transcript

00:00 Hey there, let's take a look at how to create a timeline in your presentation.

00:05 So I just created a new chapter and I would like to add in it a nice timeline.

00:10 So as I would normally do with any page, I would go up and click add slides.

00:16 And then I'm going to scroll down to the pink section since my chapter is pink.

00:20 And I'm going to look for the right page.

00:23 And as you can see, there is a page called pink timeline.

00:26 So I'll use this.

00:28 And there you have it.

00:30 As you can see, the timeline doesn't have any dots on it though.

00:33 So since Keynote doesn't allow to have shapes that can be moved in their template and master

00:40 slides, we're going to have to add them ourselves.

00:44 To do that, we highly encourage you to go again to the presentation kit file we provided

00:50 you.

00:51 If you do not have it, we highly encourage you to go downloading it on our branding guideline

00:55 website.

00:56 And then go to the visual element section and head to the timeline page.

01:00 Here you're going to see all the dots are in place.

01:03 So you can select them all.

01:05 You can right click, copy, go back to your presentation, and then paste.

01:12 And they'll all fall into places.

01:16 If you need to add more dots on the line, you can select your placeholder for an icon

01:23 if needed, your dot, title and text, and then you can just copy and then paste it.

01:30 You'll just have to maybe move things up a little bit so it makes more sense.

01:35 If you need to remove one, it's the same, but you just select everything and delete.

01:39 And then you just move them as you wish.

01:42 If you need to change the colors of the dot, you just have to click them.

01:47 And then you go into format, style, and then you're going to see line.

01:52 You click the little wheel here.

01:54 And then by using the right color code also available in the presentation kit, you can

02:00 write the right code here or as I did, I saved them here and you can click them like that.

02:07 So green, purple, orange, but let's stay pink.

02:11 And that's pretty much it.
