I am building my first deck at 1920x1080, which is what Keynote defaults to. I think it’s also a good resolution for presentations

I set the default size to <https://github.com/bnorm/storyboard/blob/main/storyboard/src/commonMain/kotlin/dev/bnorm/storyboard/Storyboard.kt#L39|960x540> because it worked well with the text sizes of the default MaterialTheme configuration. It's also the same pixel size considering the default density of 2.0 that I have observed.

I think it would be good to standardize this somehow, though. I think 1920x1080 is also the Google slides default size. But given configurable the density is, I'm not sure what the best approach would be. Default size of 1920x1080 with a default density of 1?

I also massively cranked up my font sizes

Hmm... It's seems Google slides uses 10 inches by 5.63 inches as the default size.

Maybe we need to have some kind of presets? A sealed class which defines the width, height, density, font scale, etc. The design goal here would be to have implementations for Keynote, Google slides, PowerPoint, etc with the option for something custom. Ideally, if you have an existing Keynote presentation, it would be easy to copy everything using the Keynote preset.

Yeah it’d be an interesting use-case to do like 1 or 2 complex builds with Storyboard and the rest in a Google Slides deck . . . export as a movie file and play ’em as if Google Slides could do powerful things like this

I'll get around to PowerPoint eventually...
