Naming conventions
Please follow our naming conventions to make full use of your Figma slide designs as deckd template slides.
Categorize your slides
To categorize slides in deckd, top-level Figma frames must follow a specific naming convention which determines their grouping within the deckd editor.
Consider the most logical categories for your template slides. Eg. you could categorize slides as Title or Agenda. If you have multiple slides for one category, name them sequentially (Title/01, Title/02; Agenda/01, Agenda/02..)
Name your layers
Layers, such as text boxes and images that are nested within slide frames, should follow specific naming conventions. This practice helps distinguish the content of each textbox or image, enhances responsiveness, and will be beneficial for future functionalities in deckd.
Overview
Please follow the naming conventions below for your slide layers. If multiple layers of the same type exist, name them sequentially (eg. p1, p2 ..)
| Type | Naming | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| Title | t | The title on the slide. Usually one per slide. |
| Subtitle | s | The subtitle on the slide. Usually one per slide. |
| Paragraph | p | A text paragraph. In some cases multiple per page. |
| Paragraph title | pt | The title of a paragraph. In some cases multiple per page. |
| Media | media | Media assets - like images or videos - that should be changeable in deckd. Use a placeholder image in Figma for all media types. Don’t use for images that shouldn’t be interchangeable. |
