For Assigning the Safe Space for Slides

If your menu/navigation is anchored to the top, bottom, left or right side of the slide Chapter Margins will be very helpful in allowing you to push the Grid down below the menu, and then you will be able to set the slide template components to the grid without the chance of them overlapping the menu items.

Chapter Margins will be needed to have templates import properly from the Template Store (unless you have a free-floating/hidden navigation).

In the example seen below, you will see that the navigation is anchored to the top of the screen and has a height of 100 pixels.

In bottom right corner of your screen you will see the Chapter Margins option; this is were you can set where the Chapter Margin should be placed and the height of the Chapter Margin (which should match the hight or width of the navigation plus any the amount that they may be positioned away from the edge of the screen).

Since the navigation is anchored top of the screen, a top Chapter Margin should be added.
As the navigation is not positioned away from the top of the screen, only the height of the navigation should be used.

The top Chapter Margin should be set to 100px in this example.
