SlideHub Macro
At KnowMore Platform, we're dedicated to empowering designers like you to enhance your skills and efficiency. That's why we've developed this Macro tool, intended to enrich your designer arsenal and accelerate your workflow. We're excited about the possibilities it offers and hope it becomes a valuable asset in your toolkit.
It is a solution for many design struggles that are hard to solve or require many actions. This macro can do many things with just 1 or 2 clicks. For example:
Make round shape curves consistent - top 1 issue designers can't solve without this Macro tool or other tools
Convert tables to shapes
Split text lines into separate boxes
Manage consistency of titles
Delete content checker report notes
Advanced alignment and spacing tools
Add option or comment stickers in KnowMore format
And much more!
Once designer passes whole application process and becomes Level 2 designer, an automatic email containing Macro tool download link is sent out.
