Using the Layout Picker

With any card selected, choose a layout from the picker in the preview area to the right.

This will create or update tagged text and apply the correct alignment in one click.

Using the Add button

Click the Add (“+”) button on your card and select from one of the text options:

By typing

You can type title tags directly by starting any line with one of the special characters #, > , * , ^, etc...

# Heading 1 ## Heading 2 (”Subheading”) ### Heading 3 (”Paragraph”) * Bullet

> Quote ~ Attribution

^ Footnote

! image.png Adds any image already in the document bundle (so you can copy-paste this text to put the image on other slides but you have to drag the image to the card if it’s not already in the document bundle)

Top tip, the # character is in a weird place on UK Mac keyboards - press Alt+3 to type it!

Setting the text position and contrast

You can change the position and lightness or darkness of text by using the Card Menu (up top) or the Card Sidebar (on the right).

Via the Live Camera

If there is no currently selected slide, the Slide button can be clicked to type text directly onto your webcam feed.

Live via your iPad with Live Titles

Using your iPad, draw a horizontal line and say the words you want to appear.

The size will match the length of the line.

It takes a little practice and is easier if you use your finger than with an Apple Pencil.

Keep holding until the text appears or try again if the line wasn’t straight enough!

This text will automatically appear within CueCam if it’s connected to the iPad.
