Overflow

Kathy Benson
I am wasting time with generated slides that overflow the card size. Gamma seems to lean hard into the freeform web flow format. That is not for me. I need to share my slide decks with others who prefer Google Slides or PowerPoint. This is a big drawback of Gamma.
If I ask for a landscape size card, Gamma shouldn't make a slide that overflows. Sometimes the part below the line is miniscule. I should be able to just nudge what I have up to fix it. Also, the interface should make it easier for me to split a card into two cards if it holds too much text.

Hey Kathy Benson, thanks for the super clear writeup. Totally get how annoying it is to spend time fixing tiny overflows, especially if your end goal is Google Slides or PowerPoint style decks. I’ll pass this to the team.
Quick question so we can make this actionable: when you hit overflow, is it usually happening right after generation, or after you edit/add content (and if it’s after edits, what kind of change tends to trigger it most, like adding a paragraph vs resizing an image)?
