5-Item Table of Contents

Q: How can I change the color scheme of the numbered blocks?

You can easily change the colors by selecting an individual shape or number, going to the "Shape Format" tab, and choosing a new fill or text color that matches your brand.

Q: Is it possible to add a sixth item to this layout?

Yes, but you will need to scale down the existing blocks and adjust the spacing to maintain the symmetrical balance of the slide.

Q: Can I replace the numbers with custom icons?

Absolutely. You can delete the text numbers (01–05) and insert vector icons in their place to give the table of contents a more visual look.

Q: Why is the layout designed with an alternating staggered pattern?

The staggered design creates a natural visual rhythm, guiding the viewer's eyes smoothly from top to bottom without overwhelming them with a standard vertical list.
