00:21 | Insert Tables |
00:24 | This tutorial is recorded using
Ubuntu Linux OS version 18.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 6.3.5 |
00:38 | Let's open the presentation Sample hyphen Impress dot odp which we saved earlier. |
00:46 | This file and an image file have been provided to you in the Code files link on this tutorial page |
00:55 | Please download and extract the files |
00:59 | Make a copy and then use them for practicing |
01:04 | Let’s learn how to insert a picture into the presentation. |
01:09 | First, let’s select slide 4 from the Slides Pane. |
01:15 | Make a duplicate slide by clicking on the Duplicate Slide icon in the Standard toolbar. |
01:22 | Click on the Title textbox of the slide. |
01:26 | Change the title from “Long Term Goal” to “Open Source Funny”. |
01:32 | Click inside the Body textbox below. |
01:37 | Click on the Insert Image icon in the Standard toolbar. |
01:43 | Alternatively, click on Insert menu in the menu bar and then on the Image option. |
01:52 | The Insert Image dialog box appears. |
01:56 | Go to the location where your picture is saved. |
02:01 | I will go to Desktop and select the picture opensource hyphen bart dot png. |
02:10 | Click on the Open button at the top right corner. |
02:15 | The picture gets inserted into the slide. |
02:19 | As mentioned earlier, this image has been provided in the Code files link. |
02:26 | Let's undo the change by pressing Ctrl+Z keys. |
02:32 | In the centre of the Body textbox, notice a small box with 4 icons.
This is the quick access Insert Toolbar. |
02:42 | Click on the bottom left icon in the Insert Toolbar named “Insert Image” to insert an image. |
02:51 | Select opensource hyphen bart dot png and click on the Open button at the top right. |
02:59 | The image gets inserted into the slide. |
03:03 | Let’s learn how to change the shape and size of the image. |
03:09 | There are eight handles named ‘Control Points’ around the corners of the image. |
03:17 | Hover the mouse on any Control Point till the cursor turns into a ‘double vertical arrow’. |
03:25 | Now click and hold the left mouse button on any one Control Point. |
03:31 | Drag the Control Point either down, up, left or right to resize the image as per your requirement. |
03:42 | Dragging the corner Control points helps us to scale the length and breadth proportionally. |
03:50 | Once you finish resizing the image, click anywhere in the textbox. |
03:56 | Let's undo the change by pressing on Ctrl and Z keys. |
04:02 | Likewise, we can insert other objects like charts and audio-video clips into the slide. |
04:11 | Explore all these possibilities on your own later. |
04:16 | Next, let’s learn about hyperlink. |
04:20 | Hyperlinking allows us to: |
04:22 | Easily move from slide to slide |
04:26 | Open a document from the presentation |
04:30 | Open a web page from the presentation |
04:34 | First, we will learn how to hyperlink to another slide within a presentation. |
04:41 | Click on the Title textbox of the slide. |
04:45 | We will first change the title from “Long term Goal” to “Table of Contents”. |
04:52 | Then we will move this slide to no. 2 position by clicking on it in the Slides pane. |
05:00 | Without releasing the mouse button, drag it upward to no. 2 position. |
05:07 | Now release the mouse button. |
05:10 | Click on the Body textbox and type the following text: |
05:16 | Overview
Short Term Strategy |
05:20 | Open Source Funny
Long Term Goal |
05:26 | Now select the line of text Overview. |
05:30 | Click on the Insert Hyperlink icon in the Standard Toolbar. |
05:35 | The Hyperlink dialog box appears on the screen. |
05:40 | On the left pane of the dialog box, select the Document option. |
05:45 | Under the Target in Document section, go to the right side of the Target field. |
05:51 | Click on the Circle icon named Target in document. |
05:56 | The Target in document dialog box appears on the screen. |
06:02 | It contains a list of all slides present in the presentation. |
06:08 | You can select any slide from the list which you want to hyperlink. |
06:14 | I’m selecting Slide 3 from the list by double-clicking on it. |
06:19 | Click on the Apply button and then click on the Close button. |
06:25 | Now we see that Slide 3 is displayed in the Target field. |
06:31 | At the bottom, click on the Apply button and then on Close button. |
06:37 | Then click anywhere outside the Body textbox. |
06:42 | Now, when you hover the cursor over the hyperlinked text, the cursor turns into a pointing finger. |
06:51 | This means that the hyperlinking was successful! |
06:56 | Press Ctrl key and click on the hyperlinked text. |
07:01 | We will be redirected to the relevant slide. |
07:05 | Next we’ll learn how to hyperlink to another document from this presentation. |
07:12 | First, go back to the slide titled “Table of Contents”. |
07:18 | Click inside the Body textbox. |
07:21 | Type “External Document” as the last line. |
07:26 | Now select the sentence “External Document”. |
07:30 | Click on the Insert Hyperlink icon in the Standard Toolbar. |
07:35 | In the Hyperlink dialog box, on the left pane select the Document section. |
07:41 | Now, go to the right side of the Path field. |
07:45 | Click on the Folder icon named ‘Open File’. |
07:50 | The Open dialog box appears on the screen. |
07:54 | Here we have to select the document which we want to hyperlink. |
08:00 | I will go to Desktop and choose Resume.odt file. |
08:06 | Then click on the “Open” button at the top right corner. |
08:11 | Notice that the full location of Resume.odt appears in the Path field. |
08:18 | At the bottom, click on the Apply button and then on Close button. |
08:24 | Now, click anywhere outside the Body textbox. |
08:29 | Observe that the text External Document becomes a hyperlinked text. |
08:36 | Press Ctrl key and click on the hyperlinked text. |
08:42 | We will be redirected to the relevant document which we had selected. |
08:48 | In our case, it takes us to Resume.odt |
08:53 | Hyperlinking to a web page is similar. |
08:57 | Click on the Body textbox once again. |
09:01 | Type Ubuntu LibreOffice in another line. |
09:06 | Select the sentence Ubuntu LibreOffice. |
09:10 | Click on Insert menu in the menu bar and then click on Hyperlink option. |
09:18 | In the Hyperlink dialog box, by default, the Internet section is selected in the left pane. |
09:25 | And in the Hyperlink Type section, the Web radio button is also selected. |
09:31 | Now in the URL field, type www.libreoffice.org |
09:41 | At the bottom, click on the Apply button and then on Close button. |
09:47 | Click anywhere outside the Body textbox. |
09:51 | Observe that the text Ubuntu LibreOffice becomes a hyperlinked text. |
09:58 | For the next part of this demonstration, you will need internet connectivity.
If you don’t have it, then skip this part. |
10:08 | Press Ctrl key and click on the hyperlinked text. |
10:13 | We will be redirected to the relevant URL. |
10:17 | Next, we will learn how to insert tables into our presentation. |
10:23 | Tables are used to organize data in columns and rows. |
10:29 | Select the slide titled Short Term Strategy from the Slides pane. |
10:35 | Click on the Slide Layout icon in the Standard Toolbar. |
10:40 | Click on the Title and 2 Content layout. |
10:44 | Now, go to the left side Body textbox of the slide. |
10:49 | Click on the icon named ‘Insert Table’ in the Insert Toolbar. |
10:55 | The Insert Table dialog box appears on the screen. |
11:00 | By default, it shows the Number of columns as 5 and Number of rows as 2. |
11:08 | We can increase or decrease the numbers using the plus and minus buttons. |
11:16 | I will set the Number of columns as 2 and
Number of rows as 5. |
11:23 | Click on the ‘Ok’ button at the right hand side corner. |
11:28 | That’s one way that a table is inserted into the slide. |
11:33 | Another way to insert a table is by clicking on the Table icon in the Standard toolbar. |
11:40 | Here we can manually select the rows and columns for the table in the displayed grid. |
11:47 | Notice that there are Control Points around the table. |
11:52 | Let’s elongate the table so that the typed text is more readable. |
11:58 | Click and hold the left mouse button on the lower Control Point and drag it downwards. |
12:06 | Now type some text into the table as shown here. |
12:11 | Let's change the font of the header row to Bold and center the text. |
12:18 | Select the text in the top row. |
12:22 | Click on the Properties section in the Sidebar. |
12:27 | Click on the Bold icon and then click on the Align Center icon. |
12:34 | Next, let’s change the color of the table. |
12:38 | First select all the text in the table by dragging the mouse like this. |
12:45 | In the Properties section, go to the Table Design property and select any table style. |
12:53 | I will select a table style of my choice, from the list. |
12:59 | Click anywhere outside the Body textbox.
See how the Table looks now. |
13:06 | Let us save all the changes we made in our presentation by clicking on the Save icon.
And then close the file. |
