How to Add, Remove, and Organize Pages or Slides in Your Visual
IN THIS ARTICLE
Piktochart’s canvas is designed to help you create visuals block by block, page by page, or slide by slide. This flexible layout makes it easy to organize your content into clear sections — perfect for infographics, presentations, or reports.
You can edit each block individually to give it a unique style, or duplicate blocks to maintain a consistent look throughout your visual. Rearranging blocks is simple, allowing you to customize the flow and structure to match your needs.
By building with uniformly sized blocks, you can easily create a clean, professional, and impactful design.
How to Add Blocks/Pages/Slides
There are a few ways to add a block page or slide to your visual:
- From the right panel of your Editor, click the ‘+’ icon when you hover in between 2 blocks:
Or, click the '+' icon available on the canvas on the right.
Or, click the '+' icon on the thumbnail at the end of the block from the right panel.
The new block will appear below as a blank background with similar dimensions as the block you initially selected.
How to Delete Block, Page or Slide
To delete a block:
- On the right panel of your Editor, select the block you wish to delete. Click the trash button.
- The selected block will be removed immediately.
How to Duplicate or Clone Blocks, Pages or Slides
- On the right side of your canvas, click the copy-page icon.
- The duplicated block, page or slide will be added as a new block with identical elements to the selected block, page or slide.
How to Arrange Blocks, Pages or Slides
- Using the panel on the right of the Editor, select the block, page or slide you would like to arrange.
- Drag it at the intended position and drop the block on the separation line that appears.
💡 Note
The 'separation line' will only appear if there are multiple existing blocks, pages, or slides in your visual.
You can easily scroll the page panel settings on the right and click on the selected block to preview the page on the canvas.
Common Questions
How do I view the Page Settings panel on the right?
Click on the arrow icon to open the Page Settings. Repeat the same to close the panel.
Can I Merge Two Blocks, Pages, or Slides Together?
At this time, merging two blocks, pages, or slides is not supported in Piktochart.
Each block or page is designed to be edited individually, so you’ll need to manually copy and paste elements from one to another if you'd like to combine content. You can also refer to this article here: Copying a Block.
To make the template longer or resize, you can refer to this article on Resizing Visual.
Can I Add Page Numbers in Piktochart?
At the moment, Piktochart doesn’t support automatic page numbering.
As a workaround, you can manually add page numbers by:
- Clicking on the Text tool in the left panel
- Adding a text box to each page
- Typing the page number manually (e.g., “Page 1”, “Page 2”, etc.)
