Scalar 2 User's Guide

Blank Slate Layout

The Blank Slate layout removes the page's title, footer, margins, linked media, and navigation to make room for your content.

This layout is ideal for full screen embedded media or alternative interfaces. For instance, one could insert a video in the page editor using the inline option, set the video to display "Full" in the media formatting options and then select the Blank Slate layout. Alternatively, one can use the Blank Slate layout to embed third-party content in your Scalar book -mapping platforms, data visualizations, timelines or even video games. The best option here is to use the iframe feature in combination with the Blank Slate layout. To insert an iframe within a Scalar page, select the globe icon in the WYSIWYG toolbar. Once in the iframe formatting options, type or paste in the url to the content you'd like displayed in the URL field and set the width to "100%." Finally, select the Blank Slate layout.
