Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for slide grid snapping for presentations slides in a cloud collaboration platform. An embodiment operates by displaying a slide made up of rows and columns of pixels, receiving inputs to select and move an object, interpreting the movement, based on proximity to particular rows and columns, places the object along the particular row and column of pixels, and rendering the resulting slide. By serializing and coordinating design actions using the slide grid, the ease of design and the efficiency of the user experience may be enhanced. The grid system further allows users to comment anywhere in the document, associating those comments with objects or layers, and adjusting or moving the comments in response to grid-based actions.
