# Storyboard  Customization

Storyboards in Infinity offer several customization options to enhance user experience and control data visibility. Here’s how you can **customize and personalize your storyboard**:

***

#### **1. Hide "No Data" Charts**

* If certain charts **do not contain data**, they can be **hidden automatically** by enabling the **"Hide No Data Charts"** toggle.
* This feature ensures that users see **only relevant and populated visualizations**, making the storyboard **cleaner and more informative**.

***

#### **2. Manage Sharing & Permissions**

* **By default, only the creator has access** to the storyboard.
* To **share the storyboard** with others:
  1. Click the **"Manage Sharing"** button.
  2. A pop-up will appear, allowing you to **control access**.
  3. Users can be granted **Read or Edit** permissions.
  4. Access can be assigned to **individual users, roles, distribution lists (DLs), or entire organizations**.
* **Important:** Users removed from the storyboard **will still have access to individual charts if separately assigned**.

#### **3. Upload a Custom XLS or PPT Template**

* Users can **upload custom Excel (.xls) or PowerPoint (.ppt) templates** for downloading storyboards in a **personalized format**.
* The uploaded template **defines the structure, styling, and placeholders** where the chart data will be inserted.
* [**Click here**](https://docs.getinfinity.app/user-guide/topics-to-address) **for format details and template requirements.** 📄

***

#### **4. Set Default Values for Variables & Filters**

* Users can **pre-set default values** for filters and variables within the storyboard.
* The system will **display a list of available variables and filters** (set at the chart level).
* The user can select **default values** that will be **pre-applied** whenever the storyboard is viewed.
* This ensures a **consistent view of data** and saves time for viewers by **eliminating the need to manually adjust filters**.
