Adding, Deleting & Arranging Blocks/Pages
We designed our canvas in such a way that you can build your Piktochart visual one block at a time. It is a great way to split your visual into sections. Blocks allow you the freedom to then rearrange your visual to suit your liking.
Each block can be edited separately to have a different look and feel - or you can clone/ duplicate blocks for a unified look across multiple blocks. Build your visual out of uniformly sized blocks and turn your visual into a great visual!
