Adjustable/Custom-sized Figma Slides

I just want to adjust the page settings for each page “frame” so to speak so I can make it wider. It’s not clear that this is possible.

Would be great to use Slides also to create materials and export as PDFs in different sizes. For example A4 in portrait and landscape.

And in export-mode also be able to choose which frames/slides to export to a PDF (couldn’t see that option atm).

Slides are gonna be great!!

Yer, it is 1920 * 1080, which is half my monitor screen.

There seems to be a slight hack. If you go into Design Mode. Select the frame and you’ll see the layout is greyed out where you can see the dimensions 1920 * 1080. However, if you hold the option key and drag right you can make it wider. Although it’s clearly not design to do this as the formatting looks weird and is muted.

Hello,

We make presentations on various screen size.
Dimensions are very important and the default 1920x1080 is quite limiting.

Secondly by default we can’t change those dimensions like we do in a Figma design frame.
I first have to create a frame inside the layout and then resize my slide (or use the sliders, which is not really precise or practical).

Once i’ve done this, overflowing elements are dimmed and the presentation never really fits the artboard size that i want.
I also see the main artboard in the back with those disturbing rounded corners

I want to use slides in an immersive / interactive room and need to set a costum size for the screen - is this possiable?

Guys, I finally found a workaround for this:

  • Create a clean slide with nothing inside
  • Create only a pure rectangle with the ratio of your screen presentation
  • Position x=0 and y=0
  • Scale to width 1920 (keeping the height linked in proportion)
  • Hit the resize to fit button on the right side (right after the Layout label)
  • Press play in the presentation
  • Voilá

/ The slide thumbs will be deformed and broken. Also, the canvas in design/slide mode will not change, making a part of your layout bleed out of the frame.

But in presentation mode, it will work perfectly. 👹

Please allow slide canvas to be set in whatever dimensions needed. 1920x1080 is incredibly limiting!

It’s crazy that this slide canvas resize feature is not even included in the initial version, this is a low-key must have feature! I really want to use this slides but I can’t right now. Please add this!
