If your Powtoon includes a video background — added from a template or placed manually — you can swap it out for any other video from the Powtoon library without rebuilding the slide.
Before you start
This process works on any slide that already has a video background applied. You can swap the background on one slide at a time. The rest of your slide content (text, characters, animations) stays in place when you replace the video.
How to swap a video background
- In the slide panel on the left, select the thumbnail of the slide whose video background you want to replace.
- In the upper-left corner of the stage, click Swap.
- ► Alternatively, right-click directly on the slide and select Swap background from the context menu.
- Browse the library panel that opens and choose the new video you want to use as the background.
- Click Approve to confirm the replacement.
The current video background is replaced with the one you selected. All other content on the slide remains unchanged.
What happens next
The swap applies only to the slide you selected. If the same video background appears on multiple slides, you need to repeat these steps for each slide individually.
Note: The Swap button appears in the upper-left corner of the stage only when the selected slide has a video background. If you do not see it, confirm that the slide contains a video background rather than a static image or color background.
