Create a New Presentation:
If you want to start a new presentation, you can do one of many things. Click on the " "Create a
new presentation,....." button. You 'll notice a change in the "Getting Started " panel. It's now
called "New Presentation ", and you can also move forward, back, and go"home" using the
buttons on the top of the panel if you want to go back and read information you may have
passed.
In the "New" section, you can make a new presentation using a blank presentation, a design
template, the Auto Content wizard, an existing presentation, or from a photo album. At this
point, we'll describe in detail the different ways you can begin your new presentation.
Blank Presentation: Click on the "blank presentation" button. The panel will then give
you a number of slide layouts to choose from.
Please note the different kinds of objects in the slide layouts: long bars of gray represent text
boxes, with little pictures in them present image objects, and the bulleted lists represent
unordered lists.
If you choose to select from one of these pre-made slide layouts, keep in mind that you can
change the positioning and even delete some of the objects in the layout. Nothing is set in
stone, and you can always modify objects, even in the pre-made slide layouts.
If you want to try to be a little more advanced, you can choose to make a completely blank
slide, and then insert objects and text as you work ( the blank slide is the one at the top of the
"Content Layout s" area in the "Slide Lay outv" panel). Find a layout you like, and click on it in
the panel window As soon as you click on the layout in the "Slide Layout" panel,the layout will
be applied to the current slide.
From this point, you are free to create the rest of your presentation as you see fit. To create a
new slide based on a pre-made layout, right -click on the layout you like in the" Slide Layout "
Panel, and select "Insert Slide," You will then see the new slide appear on your screen, as well
as in the "Slide" view on the left side of your screen. If you want to change the order of the
slides you made, simply click and drag the selected slide in the "Slide" panel to the desired
location. Please read the "Create Slide Content" section for more information on how to add
content to slides.
