Can I edit my files once they are in ShowLogic?

ShowLogic maintains your library of final files ready for viewing. If you need to edit a slide or document, you should complete your editing in the original software from the manufacturer and then import the final file into ShowLogic. We recommend keeping a library of original files that can be edited in a secure location separate from the ShowLogic library. Should you need to go back to the original you can edit it and then bring it into your library to replace the existing file.
