Cornell Notes and Keynote

Welcome to the forums!

It would be helpful if you provided more detail about specifically what you want to accomplish in Keynote -- what are the key aspects of the Cornell Note format that you want realized?

Do you want to produce a printout of your notes in Cornell format to distribute? Did you want to display the slides in Cornell format? What specifically are you trying to achieve?

So, if I understand you correctly, you should be able to create a template that has your notes on the right 2/3 of the page, and blank space on the right 1/3. Is that what you are trying to achieve?

Keynote Master slides can unfortunately only have one main text box on them, so you will not be able to have a standard Master template that does exactly what you want. However, you can always add additional text boxes to individual slides. What I would recommend is setting up a slide Master with the bullet points on the right 2/3 of the slide, then using this Master create a new individual slide, and add a text box on the left for the main idea. When you create additional individual slides from the Master, simply copy this text box and paste it on to your new slides -- it will appear in exactly the same place on each slide.
