Add steps counter #6

Closed davidemora closed 3 years ago

davidemora commented 3 years ago

why not having a new feature that adds a steps counter on the slide? By steps counter I mean a small circle with a number inside: for each new one you add the number get increased.

See the attached picture, maybe it's clearer.

Ideally it should be possible to have settings like:

Example firefox_7q3ppFS8pD

Steps

  1. add the title
  2. add the description
  3. click submit

Thanks @davidemora this is already on the backlog. Did not yet think of background shape settings and font choice. Will pick it up!

I've released a new version with step counter functionality. It has been implemented as follows:

In the split-menu of this step counter button you will also have the option to add cross-slide step counters. These work in a similar way but will continue numbering from previous slides.

In the split-menu you will also find two options to easily select all step counters on the slide (e.g. for deleting or formatting the shapes quickly).

If you copy step counter shapes (e.g. to make a legend) it will still work as expected.

I believe this way of implementing provides a lot of flexibility, without bothering the user to much with all kinds of screens / forms. Please let me know if this works for your use case as well.

Works like a charm!
