Other Slide
Views
You probably noticed, as soon as you saw the PowerPoint view
screen, the area running down the left side of the screen,
which contained "little" views of your slides as you
were creating them. This first "default view that you see is called
Normal View.
In the lower left corner of the screen you will see
some "buttons" the look like this:
Slowly point (move) your cursor arrow over each box and
pause a moment (don’t
click-on any of
the box’s yet). Note what the Text Help boxes indicate. The first box
(which looks "depressed") indicates: Normal View. The next:
Slide Sorter View. Then, Slide Show.
Each button has its own unique use.
The Normal View gives you a view of the entire slide as well
as the "mini-previews" of each slide in the area on the left. This is
the one we have been using so far. You’ll also notice a
Click to add notes section at the bottom of the Normal View
screen. In this area you can type "speaker notes" for each
slide in the lower portion of the screen. When we get to printing you
will see that there is a print selection so that you can print your
notes for each slide so that you can refer to them later while you are
making your presentation.
Click-on
Slide Sorter View.
In Slide Sorter View you can see small versions of your
slides. In this view you can left click-on a slide
and, while holding down the left mouse button, drag your slide to
any position in your show that you desire. This view assists you
in arranging your slides in the order that you desire for your
presentation. This view is sort of like the old, round 35mm slide show
trays where you pulled out and stuck in slides in the order you
desired.
Click-on Normal View to return to your slide creation area.
We’ll work with Slide Sorter View a bit later.
Save your work!

The Undo Button
 One
of the really handy "things" about most Microsoft programs is the Undo
Button (it looks like the image on the right).
If you make a mistake-no need to panic-click the
Undo button and this will remove your mistake. Then you can
try again. The Undo Button is found in the Button Bar on
the top of the screen. Each time you click-on the
button PowerPoint will "go back" one change. If you "click" too
far, there is a "Redo button" that will "undo the undo." They
are both very handy when you need them.
