00:34 | Slide Shows are usually
Used to present slides before an audience |
00:40 | It can be shown on a desktop, laptop or projector |
00:46 | Slide Shows occupy the entire computer screen |
00:50 | Presentations cannot be edited in the Slide Show mode |
00:55 | Slide Shows are for display purpose only |
00:59 | Let's open our presentation Sample hyphen Impress dot odp. |
01:05 | This file has been provided to you in the Code files link on this tutorial page |
01:11 | Please download and extract the file |
01:15 | Make a copy and then use it for practicing |
01:20 | Let’s learn how to view this presentation as a Slide Show. |
01:25 | Locate the ‘Start from First Slide’ icon in the Standard Toolbar. |
01:31 | Notice the tooltip on the icon displays the shortcut key F5 to start the Slide Show. |
01:39 | By clicking on the ‘Start from First Slide’, the presentation is now displayed as a Slide Show. |
01:47 | In Slide Show mode, we can navigate between slides by using the arrow keys on the keyboard. |
01:55 | The Right arrow key takes us to the next slide one after the other. |
02:01 | The Left arrow key takes us to the previous slide one before the other. |
02:07 | At any time, to exit the Slide Show, right-click for the context menu. |
02:13 | Then select the End Show option. |
02:17 | Another method to start the Slide Show, is to click on the SlideShow menu in the menu bar.
And then click on the Start from First Slide option. |
02:29 | Another way to exit the Slide Show is by pressing the ESCAPE key on the keyboard. |
02:36 | Next, let’s learn how to use the Mouse Pointer as a pen. |
02:42 | Let’s enable this option and see how it works. |
02:47 | Click on the Slide Show menu in the menu bar and then on the Slide Show Settings option. |
02:55 | The Slide Show Settings dialog box appears. |
03:00 | Under Options, check the boxes for Mouse Pointer visible and Mouse Pointer as Pen. |
03:09 | Click OK to close the dialog box. |
03:13 | Now start the Slide Show by pressing the F5 key. |
03:19 | Notice that the Mouse Pointer now turned into a pen. |
03:24 | This option allows us to mark or draw on the presentation while in the Slide Show mode. |
03:32 | Let’s draw a tick mark before the title ‘Benefit of Open Source’ in slide 1. |
03:39 | Press the left mouse button and drag on the slide, to do so. |
03:44 | We can also advance to the next slide by pressing the Spacebar or Enter key on the keyboard. |
03:53 | Let’s exit the Slide Show by pressing the ESCAPE key. |
03:58 | We can start the Slide Show from the current slide displayed in the Workspace, as well. |
04:05 | To do this, click on the ‘Start from Current Slide’ icon in the Standard Toolbar. |
04:12 | Alternatively, you can do this by clicking on the SlideShow menu in the menu bar.
Then click on the Start from Current Slide option. |
04:23 | Notice that this time, the Slide Show started from the slide titled Table of Contents. |
04:31 | Let’s exit the Slide Show. |
04:35 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
04:39 | Open “Practice hyphen Impress dot odp” file |
04:44 | Use the Mouse pointer as a pen to draw a small diagram on any slide |
04:51 | Next, let’s learn about Slide Transitions. |
04:56 | What are Slide Transitions? |
04:59 | Transitions are effects that are applied to slides as we move or |
05:05 | Transition from one slide to the next in a presentation |
05:11 | Click on the Slide Sorter tab in the Workspace. |
05:16 | All the slides in the presentation are displayed here. |
05:21 | Let’s learn how to add different transitions to each slide, in one go. |
05:27 | From the Slide Sorter view, select the first slide. |
05:32 | Go to the Sidebar and click on the icon named Slide Transition. |
05:38 | In the Slide Transition section, we can see a list of transition effects available for use.
I will select the ‘Wipe’ transition. |
05:49 | Notice that the preview of the selected transition effect is displayed in the Workspace. |
05:56 | This is because the Automatic Preview checkbox is selected by default in the section. |
06:03 | We can also modify the selected transition effect through the Modify Transitions subsection. |
06:10 | By default, the Variant field is set to Bottom to top. |
06:16 | This means the transition starts from the bottom and moves to the top as it progresses. |
06:24 | By clicking on the drop-down, we can choose any other variant of your choice. |
06:31 | Now, let’s set a sound to this transition.
Click on the Sound drop-down and select ‘applause’. |
06:42 | Now, let’s select the second slide. |
06:46 | Go to the Slide Transition section and click on the ‘Wheel’ transition. |
06:55 | Under the Modify Transitions subsection, click on the Variant drop-down. |
07:01 | Scroll and select ‘Clockwise 8 Spokes’. |
07:09 | Next, click on the Sound drop-down and select ‘apert’. |
07:16 | Again we see the preview of the transition effect we have made. |
07:22 | We have now learnt how to animate and add a sound effect to a slide transition. |
07:29 | Let us now learn how to create a presentation that advances automatically. |
07:35 | Under the Modify Transitions subsection, check the ‘Loop until next sound’. |
07:45 | Now, under the Advance Slide subsection, click on the radio button ‘Automatically after. |
07:52 | Here notice that the time is set as 1 sec. |
07:58 | Lastly, click on the ‘Apply Transitions to all slides’ button. |
08:04 | Clicking on this button applies the same transition for all the slides. |
08:10 | This way we need not add transitions for each slide individually. |
08:16 | Let’s start the Slide Show now to see all of these customised effects. |
08:22 | Notice that the slides advance automatically with a time interval of 1 second. |
08:31 | Let’s exit the Slide Show. |
08:34 | Now we’ll learn to create presentations |
08:37 | That advance automatically but with different display times for each slides |
08:43 | This is useful when the content of some slides in the presentation are longer |
08:51 | From the Workspace, let’s select the second slide. |
08:55 | Under the Slide Transitions section, go to the Advance Slide subsection. |
09:01 | In the Automatically after field, set the time to ‘2’ seconds. |
09:07 | Let’s select the third slide and set the time to ‘3’ seconds. |
09:13 | Let’s select the fourth slide and set the time to ‘4’ seconds. |
09:19 | Let’s start the Slide Show. |
09:25 | Notice that each slide is displayed for different lengths of time that we specified. |
09:38 | Let’s exit the Slide Show. |
09:41 | Let’s return to that Normal tab and close the Slide Transition section. |
09:47 | Let us save all these changes for future use and then close the presentation file. |
09:54 | With this, we have come to the end of this spoken tutorial.
Let us summarize. |
