Displaying Different Views of a PresentationPowerPoint has three primary views (the views you will use most often) to help you create, organize, and display presentations: Show
You can switch among these views by clicking the buttons on the View toolbar at the right end of the status bar. Alternatively, you can click the buttons in the Presentation Views group on the View tab. This group also includes buttons for the following views, which you will probably use less frequently:
You can use other buttons on the View tab to display rulers and gridlines to help you position and align slide elements, to change the magnification of the current slide, to see how a colored slide will look if rendered in black and white (usually for printing), to arrange and work with windows, and to view macros. When you are working in Normal view, you can adjust the relative sizes of the panes to suit your needs by dragging the splitter bar that separates them. When you point to a splitter bar, the pointer changes to a double bar with opposing arrows, and you can drag in either direction. You can hide a pane by dragging the splitter bar to shrink the pane as far as it will go. Simply drag the splitter bar back to widen the pane again. If you adjust the width of the Slides tab in the Overview pane, the size of the slide thumbnails is adjusted accordingly—that is, you can see more small thumbnails in a narrow pane and fewer large thumbnails in a wide pane. In this exercise, you will switch among different PowerPoint views and adjust the slide size. You will view a presentation as a slide show and then return to Normal view, where you will adjust the size of the panes. Finally, you will see how to display more than one presentation at the same time. NoteUSE the Viewing1 and Viewing2 presentations. These practice files are located in the Documents\Microsoft Press\PowerPoint2007SBS\Exploring folder. OPEN the Viewing1 presentation.
The pane switches from showing thumbnails of the slides to showing an outline of the text of the presentation. Slide 3 of the presentation is now shown in the adjacent Slide pane. All the slides now appear as thumbnails in one large pane. Slide 3 is surrounded by a border, indicating that it is selected. The Zoom dialog box opens. Each time you click the button, the slider moves to the left and the Zoom percentage decreases. In the workspace, you can now see both open presentations at the same time.
