Getting started with slideshows in LocalFocus

When do I use a slideshow?

Sometimes you want to combine maps, charts and tables to explain a story, as in this example about the use of ADHD drugs. Or maybe you want to create several charts with one LocalFocus topic, like here. To keep an online article or webpage clear, you can therefore combine different graphics in a slideshow. Do you want to recreate these examples? Here you will find the map with the use of ADHD medicines and here the graph.

How do I make a slideshow?

• Go to this page to start a new topic click on the option 'slideshow'. (If you use LocalFocus Pro, click here). Give your project a title and click 'save'.

• The 'Your widgets' overview contains the graphics that you have previously published. Select the graphics you want to combine.

• Is a graphics that you want to use for the slideshow not yet under 'Your widgets'? Then open the topic in which you made the graphic. Are you satisfied with the settings and design? Then click on the red button for 'widget'. You don't have to do anything with the link and embed code in the popup window, click this away. If you reload the slideshow page, you can now select the graphics in the overview.

• After you have chosen the graphics you want to combine, you can change the order by dragging. Also add a (short) informative title for each graphic.

• The result will then look like this:

• Ready to publish? Click on 'widget' and add the embed code to your online article or webpage.
