00:00 Welcome to the tutorial on LibreOffice Impress - Viewing a Presentation.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn about:

View options and their uses and Master Pages.

00:13 Here, we are using:

Ubuntu Linux 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.

00:22 First, let us open our presentation “Sample Impress” by double-clicking on it.
00:27 LibreOffice Impress has many view options that help you create a better presentation.
00:34 By default, when you start LibreOffice Impress, it looks like this.
00:41 This is called the Normal view.
00:43 When the presentation is in any other view,
00:48 you can return to the Normal view by clicking on the Normal tab.
00:53 or by clicking on View and Normal.
00:57 In the Normal view, you can create and edit slides.
01:02 For example, we can change the design of the slides.
01:05 To do this, go to the slide titled "Overview".
01:09 On the right side, in the Tasks pane, Master Pages section, under "Used in This Presentation", we can see the slide design is 'prs strategy'.
01:21 Under this, we can see Recently Used and Available for Use slide designs.
01:27 Click on any one of your choice.
01:30 Notice the change in the slide design in the Workspace pane.
01:35 See, how easy it is to change the slide design?
01:39 You can also add designs that you have created as background for your slides.
01:45 Next, we will see the Outline view.
01:47 You can go to this view either by clicking on View and Outline.
01:53 or by clicking on the Outline tab.
01:57 In this view, you can see that the slides are arranged one below the other - just like a Table of Contents.
02:05 These here, are the slide headings.
02:08 Notice that the slide heading "Overview" is highlighted.
02:12 This is because we were on the Overview slide when we selected the Outline tab.
02:18 You can see these icons shaped like bullet points.
02:23 When you hover the mouse over these bullet points, the cursor turns into a hand.
02:29 We can then move these line items up or down in order to rearrange them within a slide.
02:38 or across slides.
02:40 Let us undo these changes by pressing Ctrl and Z so that our presentation appears in its original form.
02:49 We use the Slide Sorter view to rearrange slides.
02:53 We can get to the Slide Sorter view by clicking on View and Slide Sorter.
03:00 or by clicking on the Slide Sorter tab.
03:04 This view is useful to sort the slides in the desired order.
03:08 For example - To interchange slide number 9 and 10, click on slide number 10 and drag the slide before slide number 9.
03:18 Now, release the mouse button.
03:22 The slides get interchanged!
03:26 In the Notes view, you can write notes that will help you during your presentation.
03:31 To go to the Notes view, click on View and then Notes Page.
03:36 You can also click on the Notes tab.
03:39 Select the slide "Development up to present" from the Slides pane.
03:44 Type some text in the notes portion.
03:49 When your slides are viewed on a projector, you will still be able to see your notes on your monitor but your audience won’t.
03:58 Now, let’s click on the Normal tab.
04:01 We can change the layout of the presentation in the Tasks pane, Layouts section, on the right.
04:08 To show or hide the Tasks pane,
04:12 click on View and Tasks Pane.
04:14 This will either show or hide the Tasks pane.
04:18 Let’s use the Layout section to change the layout of a slide.
04:23 Select the slide named "Development up to present".
04:26 From the Layout section, select Title Content over Content.
04:33 This changes the layout of the slide.
04:37 This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
04:40 To summarize, we learnt - View options and their uses and Master Pages.

04:49 Create a new presentation.
