Lucidchart launches presentation mode as alternative to prezi, powerpoint.

Lucidchart's New Presentation Mode Combines Sleek Design Elements with Unobtrusive Animation; The Feature is now Available for All Lucidchart Users on a Premium Account

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 5, 2015 / Lucidchart , the online diagramming application of choice for millions of educators and businesspeople, recently expanded its core feature set to include a presentation mode.

Lucidchart Product Manager Edgar Cheney said, "Our customers wanted to show off their ideas clearly to executives and business partners. Instead of shrinking complex diagrams to fit into pre-made templates, users can show off their work at full resolution. It’s the way diagrams were meant to be seen, and it’s sure to impress their colleagues and clients."

Previously, Lucidchart users had no choice but to export their graphics to other presentation platforms like Prezi and PowerPoint . There was no easy way to present diagrams inside Lucidchart itself, nor was there a solution for displaying diagrams at full size. With Lucidchart’s new presentation mode , users can incorporate diagrams into a custom presentation. Slides are automatically formatted to improve readability and maintain a crisp look. While creating their presentations, users can narrow in on specific elements of a diagram. This allows viewers to consider a document’s elements one by one, making for a more concept-driven approach.

"Other tools let you zoom from spot to spot in the presentation," said Cheney. "But Lucidchart’s presentation mode makes that sliding meaningful, instead of just pretty, by emphasizing the visual relationship between chart elements." Key features include an option to highlight important elements, as well as control over document layers and visibility.

Since it was launched in 2010, Lucid Software has focused its attention primarily on providing customers with a great user experience in the editor itself. The release of presentation mode reflects a growing emphasis on helping customers leverage their diagrams in the workplace.

Current users can quickly convert any existing diagram into a presentation by clicking the presentation mode button in the dock on the right side of the editor, then adding new slides anywhere on the document. Alternatively, right-clicking any chart element now yields an option to insert a presentation slide. The order of slides can be adjusted by dragging and dropping. Clicking "Present" starts the presentation in the browser.

Presentation mode has already received positive feedback. One user wrote, "This is exactly what I needed for presenting a large data model to executives."

About Lucidchart:

Launched in 2010, Lucidchart is a web-based diagramming application used by businesses, schools, and individuals to create compelling and attractive visual communication, right in a web browser. Our software offers real-time collaboration, an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, and enterprise-level reliability. With millions of users, Lucidchart is one of the most popular productivity apps in the Chrome Web Store and Google Apps Marketplace.

How can I embed a LucidChart layered diagram in presentation mode?

• 2 years ago 3 March 2022

When I generate an embed code it shows all the layers at the same time which is not what we want. I'd like for the embed code to automatically show the LucidChart in presentation mode. Thanks.

• Lucid support team

• 2 years ago 4 March 2022

Thank you for posting in the Community! You have to select which layers you want visible and then select “sync visibility” within the layers manager. Then whatever is on the canvas will be what is shown on the embedded version.

Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Hi Liz. Thanks for your reply but perhaps I didn't phrase my question clearly. I don't want all the layers to appear with the embedded file. I would like the embed code to open the chart in presentation mode. Otherwise all you see is a jumble of layers that don't make sense when consolidated into one view. Thanks!

• 2 years ago 5 March 2022

Thank you for your response! My apologies for the confusion. You can hide the layers that you do not want to visible and then select "Sync Visibility" to reflect the current view in the embedded diagram. This will allow you to control the visible layers instead of showing all layers of your diagram. Below is a video that illustrates this process.

Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (NYSE:SQM) Q1 2024 Earnings Call Transcript

Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (NYSE: SQM ) Q1 2024 Earnings Call Transcript May 23, 2024

Operator: Good day, and welcome to the SQM First Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call. All participants will be in listen-only mode. [Operator Instructions] After today's presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. [Operator Instructions] Please also note today's event is being recorded. I'd now like to turn the conference over to Irina Axenova, Head of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Irina Axenova: Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining SQM's earnings conference call for the first quarter of 2024. This conference call will be recorded and is being webcast live. Our earnings press release and the presentation with a summary of the results have been uploaded to our website where you can also find a link to the webcast. Ricardo Ramos, our Chief Executive Officer will be speaking on the call today. Carlos Diaz, Executive Vice President of Lithium; Mark Fones, Vice President of Lithium Development and M&A; [Max Vial] Lithium Market Intelligence Director; Pablo Altimiras, Executive Vice President of Nitrates & Iodine; and Juan Pablo Bellolio, Commercial Vice President of Iodine & Industrial Chemicals are also available to answer any questions.

Our Chief Executive Officer, Ricardo Ramos, unfortunately couldn't join the call today. Before we begin, I would like to remind you that some statements made during this conference call regarding our business outlook, future economic performance, anticipated profitability, revenue, expenses and other financial items are considered forward-looking statements. Please note that the same cautionary language used in our press release and presentation also applies to this call. And now I will leave you with our Chief Financial Officer, Gerardo Illanes.

Gerardo Illanes : Thank you, Irina. Good afternoon, everyone and thank you for joining us today. As you may know, we reported our first quarter 2024 earnings result yesterday. On this call, we will be discussing the key drivers behind these results and sharing our outlook for the year. Our total revenues for the first three months of the year reached almost $1.1 billion with an adjusted EBITDA of over $400 million. Our net profit was impacted by a one-time to adjustment related to the accounting treatment of the lithium mining tax in Chile from previous years, adding up to almost $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2024. This is not having a significant cash impact since the majority of this amount close to $930 million was paid in prior years.

During the first quarter of this year, we delivered strong growth in our sales volume across all of our major business lines, reporting record high quarterly sales volumes in the iodine business, positive sales volume recovery in the fertilizer business and almost 30% higher lithium sales volumes compared to the same period last year. This growth helped partially offset the impact of lower average prices realized for the first quarter 2024. In our nitrates and iodine business unit, we are proud of the results of the ramp up of Pampa Blanca project, which is expected to reach approximately 1,300 metric tons of new iodine capacity this year. Also a few months ago, we began the construction of a seawater pipeline, which is expected to be completed in 2026.

It is an exciting development, but it's also a challenging project, almost 38 kilometers long with a total elevation of over 1,000 meters running from the Pacific coast near the City of Iquique to our Nueva Victoria operations. Once completed, the pipeline will have a capacity of 900 liters per second and will allow us to expand our production capacity even further while delivering fresh water to some neighboring communities. We have seen positive demand trends in the iodine and potassium nitrate market since the beginning of the year. Our outlook is that the iodine market demand could grow by approximately 4% this year, approaching 2022 levels. Our iodine sales volumes are projected to increase in 2024 compared to last year, with an expected stable average sales price with a possibility of a slight upside.

We are similarly optimistic about the potassium nitrate market outlook with expectations of up 15% growth in the demand this year. Our sales volumes are also anticipated to follow a similar pattern. Potassium nitrate prices have been relatively stable over several quarters and we believe this trend could continue for the remainder of the year. In the lithium business unit, having completed expansion of our lithium carbonate capacity in Chile to 210,000 metric tons, we're now focusing on a series of initiatives that should allow us to increase this capacity to 240,000 metric tons by the end of the year, mainly through process improvements, increased quality and efficiency of the existing production facilities. Our lithium hydroxide capacity in Chile has reached 40,000 metric tons per year and we expect to complete this expansion to reach 100,000 metric tons per year during 2025.

In China, we completed the modification of the Dixin lithium hydroxide conversion facility with a total capacity of 20,000 metric tons per year. This project represents years of innovation and development of a chemical facility to refine lithium sulfate produced in the Salar de Atacama to battery grade lithium hydroxide. At the same time, we have reached agreements to toll approximately 20,000 metric tons of lithium sulfate coming from the Salar de Atacama into lithium hydroxide in China. All of this together with the initiatives we're working on in Australia should let us reach a total production capacity of more than 300,000 metric tons of lithium products by the end of 2025. Turning to broader lithium market. We have observed some encouraging trends during the first month of this year.

Strong demand growth have been driven by electric demand market, mainly in China, which accounts for almost 75% of global lithium demand. We anticipate that the total EV sales could reach 17 million units by 2024, representing a 22% increase from 2023. And total lithium demand could exceed 1.1 million tons in 2024, representing a 20% increase compared to the previous year. Given this demand growth, we have anticipated our sales volumes outlook for this year, expecting to sell close to 200,000 metric tons. The expected growth in global lithium supply this year could be up to 30% compared to 2023. However, given current lithium prices, the expected supply from high cost producers could be affected, providing some price stability as has been seen since February this year.

Before concluding and opening the line for questions, I would like to ask Mark to share with us some of the recent developments in our lithium initiatives abroad.

Mark Fones : Thank you, Ricardo. Good afternoon, everyone. From an Australian and internationalism perspective, for SQM it has been a very eventful and exciting start to 2024, with spodumene concentrate production commencing at the world class Mount Holland lithium project jointly owned with our partner Wesfarmers and the completion of the Azure Minerals acquisition with Hancock prospect. We are very fortunate to now have access to two globally significant, which we are progressing with two equally significant Australian partners, Wesfarmers and Hancock Prospect. Moving first to Mount Holland, last year we commenced production at the newly constructed mine and concentrated facilities, exporting our first shipment of spotty main concentrate this month to be tolled in China.

During this calendar year, we expect to produce a total of between 120,000 and 150,000 metric tons of spotty main concentrate, that's SQM's share and to total close to 5,000 metric tons of lithium hydroxide. However, given the timing of tolling and quality certification requirements, we do not anticipate seeing these volumes on the market until the end of the year. In the meantime, work continues on the Kwinana Refinery with construction of our 50,000 tons per year facility at about a 75% to 80% complete and expected to be in production by mid next year, following commission later this year. We will keep progressing with studies and environmental approvals for the Mount Holland mine and concentrator expansion, which would effectively see Mount Holland doubling its polymeric concentrate production facility after FID is taken.

Moving now to the recent acquisition of Azure, which owns 60% of the Andover lithium project in Western Australia also concluded this month. Together with Hancock prospecting, we acquired all the outstanding of Azure Minerals Limited and jointly become owners of 60% of the Andover Lithium project. This significant investment by SQM further highlights our belief in Western Australia as one of the world's prominent hard rock lithium mining jurisdictions. We're extremely happy with this acquisition and with our new partner, Hanko, who will provide excellent project development and mining expertise in Australia to complement SQM’s market leading lithium knowledge. We believe our business model of partnering with great local companies to discover and develop Tier 1 lithium assets, places SQM in a prominent position in the global hard rock lithium market.

In 2024, we will continue to work -- the good work that Azure has done and towards the resource estimate for Andover project as well as providing additional capabilities, continue with studies and regulatory approvals activities, as well as product definition and project development. While work still needs to be done to finalize this resource estimate, we are certainly looking at a deposit of global significance. Outside of these two major projects, as you may have seen in our public announcements, we continue to work on monitor and invest in various early stage exploration projects in Australia with the aim to finding new high grade lithium prospects with the potential for scale. Irina Axenova Thank you, Mark. Operator, we will now open the lines to questions.

Miro vs Lucidchart: A Comprehensive Analysis 

Page Flows Team

A visual workspace that offers advanced, collaborative features to its users is incredibly useful to a team of UX designers . However, given that UX design is an ever-evolving industry, the tools UX designers employ must also adapt accordingly. 

For this reason, the best collaboration tools go beyond simply providing an online whiteboard. The best collaboration tools offer features like brainstorming solutions, custom shapes, and even a template library. 

Two tools that successfully meet a UX design team’s needs, such as the ones listed above, are Miro and Lucidchart. 

That brings us to the topic of today’s guide: Miro vs Lucidchart. Today, we shall explore the most compelling features of both tools. Additionally, we’ll address how UX designers can utilize said features to enhance the UX design process . By the time you’ve finished reading this guide, you’ll know which tool to utilize for future design projects!

What Is Miro? 

Naturally, the first question you may have wondered is, ‘What is Miro?’

Miro serves as a digital whiteboard, which promotes efficient collaborative practices amongst project teams. Put differently; Miro enables both remote and distributed teams to work together to manage projects and design products proficiently. 

Flaunting both asynchronous and real-time collaboration, Miro allows you to centralize product development workflows, making wireframing and product planning effortless. 

With Miro, you can access auto-generated mindmaps and diagrams, making it incredibly easy to streamline the ideation process.

Of course, product development and collaboration are essential within the world of UX design. However, Miro offers many more advantages to both new and seasoned UX designers. We’ll touch on how you can utilize those advantages briefly. For now, it’s time to look at one of Miro’s biggest competitors…

What Is Lucidchart?  

Given that your first question focused on Miro, then presumably, your second question is, ‘What is Lucidchart?’

Lucidchart is a web-based, intuitive diagramming and flowchart application that caters to the needs of the team and the individual. 

Boasting intelligent diagramming, Lucidchart allows designers to visualize ideas quickly and elucidate the most complex processes. 

Above all, Lucidchart aims to optimize and accelerate collaborative efforts. For this reason, Lucidchart supports standardized visual language, real-time collaboration, in-editor chat, shape-specific comments, and collaborative tools. 

Aside from creating new diagrams, Lucidchart also allows you to improve existing visuals thanks to its array of supported integrations. From Google Workspace to Asana, Lucidchart makes cross-platform collaboration simple. 

How To Use Miro: An Exploration of Miro’s Most Useful Features 

Knowing what Miro is will give you a general indication as to how you can utilize it for UX design. However, in order to maximize its usefulness, it’s wise to explore Miro’s most compelling features. 

Fortunately, this is precisely what we’ve done to help you learn how to use Miro! 

1. Wireframing 

As previously mentioned, you can use Miro to create and enhance your wireframes . 

By using Miro’s wireframing feature, you’ll have access to customizable templates and an extensive UI library. With such an impressive abundance of design patterns at your disposal, you’ll create valuable low-fidelity prototypes in mere minutes. 

Expectedly, this feature allows you to ideate on virtual sticky notes and map user flows efficiently. However, what makes Miro’s wireframe function stand out is that you can build wireframes in real-time. What’s more, you can create wireframes while simultaneously conducting a brainstorming session with your team. 

2. The Infinite Canvas 

The only thing better than a blank canvas is an infinite canvas. Miro caters to both big and small ideas with their infinite canvas, prompting you to exercise your creativity. 

From basic sketching to complex diagramming, you can create superb design solutions without unforeseen limitations. 

Sharing your ideas both with your fellow designers and integrations like Figma and Sketch is effortless with Miro’s canvas. 

3. Technical Diagramming 

Miro’s technical diagramming function allows you to make complex task flows and user flows incredibly straightforward. 

With access to over 2000 diagramming shapes, you can create any technical diagram your team requires. Thanks to AI-driven automation, you can also generate entity-relationship diagrams and unified modeling language! 

Boasting an impressive tech stack, Miro also allows you to embed diagrams into thousands of external tools like Coda and Notion. 

How To Use Lucidchart: An Analysis of Lucidchart’s Most Beneficial Features 

It’s fitting that you also know how to use Lucidchart and how to maximize the potential of its features. 

Below, we’ve explored Lucidchart’s most valuable features! 

1. Process Maps & Flowcharts 

The process diagrams/maps and flowcharts that you can create with Lucidchart make essential workflows completely transparent. 

Prioritizing clarity, Lucidchart provides extensive shape libraries to help you build intelligent diagrams without any unnecessary hassle. 

Lucidchart promotes team alignment, allowing for streamlined communication due to its wide range of supported integrations. What’s more, you can incorporate external data to visualize complex processes with Lucidchart! 

2. Automatic Data Interpretation 

Lucidchart doesn’t just automatically visualize your data; it automatically interprets your data too.  

With dynamic shapes, conditional formatting, and smart containers, you can identify valuable patterns and areas of improvement in your diagrams!

3. Presentation Mode

Lucidchart’s Presentation Mode allows you to turn your technical diagrams into a professional presentation. 

You can create seamless, visually striking transitions with Lucidchart. Best of all, you can do so in a matter of minutes! 

For designers who need to present their design solutions to their teams and stakeholders, this is an extremely practical feature! 

How To Import Lucidchart to Miro: A Handy Guide 

It’s not uncommon for project managers to unite their design team under one (technological) roof. To prepare for this eventuality, it’s handy to know how to import Lucidchart to Miro. 

Below, we’ve provided instructions to help you import diagrams from Lucidchart to Miro seamlessly. 

Importing a Singular Lucidchart Diagram

Announcing Lucidchart Diagrams for Google Slides

Lucid Content

Reading time: about 3 min

Google and Lucidchart go way back. Our partnership has greatly facilitated our mission to make working visually easy for everyone, especially because it helps us work wherever you do. We’re excited to partner with Google once again for the launch of the Google Slides add-ons.

Spice up your presentations

Hopefully you’re already using Lucidchart to enhance your Slides presentations—we’re not aware of anyone who enjoys staring at slides chock full of text. Adding visuals keeps your audience engaged, clarifies any concept, and makes your message stick. The good news is that our latest update for Google Slides makes it even easier to add visuals—now you can do so without ever leaving the Google environment.

First you’ll need to set up the add-on:

• From an open Google Presentation, select  Extensions  from the top menu bar.
• Hover over Add-ons and click Get add-ons .
• Search for and select Lucidchart. Select Continue  to give Lucid permission to begin installing.
• Click  Allow  to give Lucid access to your Google account.
• In the confirmation window that appears, click  Done .

Now you’re connected and ready to spice up those slides diagramming-style:  

• Build a diagram in Lucidchart.
• Open Google Slides.
• Click  Browse documents  in the Lucidchart add-on sidebar on the right.
• Select the thumbnail of the document you want to insert.
• Click Select .

And guess what? If you come up with a diagram idea as you’re crafting your slides, choose the orange "+" button in the bottom right corner of the Lucidchart Diagrams sidebar to start a new diagram in Lucidchart directly from Slides. Simply click “Back to Slides” once you’re done, and then you can insert that beautiful new diagram into any slide.

Find a diagram that needs some polishing? Not a problem.

Simply select the diagram from your documents list and click “Edit,” and you’ll be directed to the Lucidchart editor where you can revise as needed. And no need to reinsert any of your diagrams—once you’re back in Google Slides, click the refresh icon at the top of the Lucidchart Diagrams sidebar. Your diagrams will always be up to date.

Use diagrams in your slides to make a lasting statement. Install Lucidchart Diagrams for Google Slides today!
