How to Use It
Combine a prominent visual or message with supporting content. Use it when one element should lead the audience into the details.
Preview + source
Explore this layout
Introduce one central idea with a dominant image and concise supporting copy.
All people, quotations and business figures in these examples are illustrative.
This prepared preview and the OPF describe the same example. Area outlines show measured allocation; toggling them does not change the slide.
Inspect compact default-catalog references. Your host must register the matching catalog; source identifies it without fetching over the network. Copy always includes complete embedded records.

All sample text fits within its content areas.
