Each view is designed to make completing certain tasks easier. In
summary:
• Normal view is the main view for creating individual slides. Use
this view to format and design slides and to add text, graphics,
and animation effects.
• Outline view shows topic titles, bulleted lists, and numbered lists
for each slide in outline format. Use this view to rearrange the
order of slides, edit titles and headings, rearrange the order of
items in a list, and add new slides.
• Notes view lets you add notes to each slide that are not seen
when the presentation is shown.
• Slide Sorter view shows a thumbnail of each slide in order. Use
this view to rearrange the order of slides, produce a timed slide
show, or add transitions between selected slides.
• Handout view lets you print your slides for a handout. You can
choose one, two, three, four, or six slides per page from Tasks
pane > Layouts. Thumbnails can be re-arranged in this view by
dragging and dropping them.
Toolbars
The various Impress toolbars can be displayed or hidden by clicking
View > Toolbars and selecting from the menu. You can also select the
icons that you wish to appear on each toolbar. For more information,
refer to Chapter 1 (Introducing OpenOffice.org).
Many of the toolbars in Impress are similar to the toolbars in OOo
Draw. Refer to the Draw Guide for details on the functions available
and how to use them.
Status bar
The Status bar (Figures 138 and 139) is located at the bottom of the
workspace. In addition to fields common to several OOo components, it
includes several Impress-specific fields. For details on the contents and
use of these fields, see Chapter 1 (Introducing OpenOffice.org) in this
book and Chapter 1 (Introducing Impress) in the Impress Guide.
Note
The sizes are given in the current measurement unit (not to be
confused with the ruler units). This unit is defined in Tools >
Options > OpenOffice.org Draw > General, where you can
also change the scale of the page. Another way to change the
scale is to double-click on the number shown in the status bar.
