|-
||00.00
||Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on in LibreOffice Impress.

|- 
||00.08
||In this tutorial we will learn how to apply: Backgrounds for slides, Layouts for slides

|-
||00.15
||Here we are using Ubuntu Linux 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.

|-
||00.24
||Background refers to all the colors and effects applied to the slide, which are present behind the content.

|-
||00.32
||LibreOffice Impress has many background options that help you create better presentations.

|-
||00.38
||You can even create your own custom backgrounds.

|-
||00.42
|| Let’s open the presentation '''Sample-Impress.odp.'''

|-
||00.48
||Let’s create a custom background for our presentation.

|-
||00.52
||We shall also apply this background to all the slides in the presentation.

|-
||00.57
||We shall use the '''Slide Master '''option to create this background.

|-
||01.02
||Any change made to the '''Master '''slide is applied to all the slides in the presentation.

|-
||01.08
|| From the '''Main '''menu, click '''View''', select '''Master '''and click on '''Slide Master'''.
 
|-
||01.15
|| The '''Master Slide '''appears.

|-
||01.17
|| Notice, that the '''Master View''' toolbar is also visible. You can use this to create, delete and rename '''Master Pages'''.

|-
||01.27
|| Notice, that two slides are displayed now.

|-
||01.31
|| These are two '''Master Pages''' that have been used in this presentation.

|-
||01.37 
|| From the '''Tasks''' pane, click on '''Master Pages'''.

|-
||01.41
|| The '''Used in This Presentation''' field displays the Master slides used in this presentation.

|-
||01.48
||The '''Master slide''' is like a template.

|-
||01.51
||You can set formatting preferences here, which are then applied to all the slides in the presentation.

|-
||01.58
|| First, from the '''Slides''' pane, let’s select '''Slide''' '''1'''.

|-
||02.03
|| Let’s apply a white background to this presentation.

|-
||02.07
|| From the '''Main '''menu, click on '''Format '''and click '''Page'''.

|-
||02.12
|| The '''Page Setup''' dialog box appears.

|-
||02.15
|| Click the '''Background '''tab.

|-
||02.18
|| From the '''Fill '''drop down menu, select the option '''Bitmap'''.

|-
||02.24
|| From the list of options, select '''Blank '''and click '''OK'''.

|-
||02.29
|| The slide now has a white background.

|-
||02.32
|| Notice that the existing text color doesn’t show up very well against the background.

|-
||02.38
|| Always choose a color that is visible distinctly against its background.

|-
||02.43
|| Let’s change the color of the text to black. This will make the text clearly visible against the white background.

|-
||02.52 
|| First select the text.

|-
||02.55
|| From the '''Main '''menu, click '''Format '''and select '''Character'''.

|-
||02.59
|| The '''Character '''dialog box appears.

|-
||03.02
|| From the '''Character '''dialog box, click '''Font Effects''' tab.

|-
||03.08
||From the '''Font Color '''drop-down, select '''Black'''.

|-
||03.12
|| Click '''OK'''.

|-
||03.15
|| The text is now black in color.

|-
||03.18
|| Now, let’s apply a color to the slide.

|-
||03.21 
|| Right-click on the slide for the context menu and click '''Slide''' and '''Page''' '''Setup'''.

|-
||03.27
|| From the '''Fill '''drop down menu, select the option Color. Select '''Blue 8''' and click '''OK'''.

|-
||03.36
|| Notice, that the light blue color we selected is applied to the slide.

|-
||03.42
|| Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. Create a new Master Slide and apply the color red as the background.

|-
||03.52
|| Let’s now learn how to add other design elements to this presentation.

|-
||03.57
||For example, you can add a logo to your presentation.

|-
||04.01
|| Look at the '''Basic Shapes''' toolbar in the bottom of your screen.

|-
||04.06
|| You can use it to draw a variety of basic shapes such as circles, squares, rectangles, triangles and ovals.

|-
||04.16
|| Let’s draw a rectangle in the Title area of the slide.

|-
||04.21
|| From the '''Basic Shapes '''toolbar click on '''Rectangle'''.

|-
||04.25
|| Now move the cursor to the top left corner of the slide, in the Title area.  

|-
||04.31
||You will see a '''plus sign''' with a '''capital I'''. 

|-
||04.36
|| Hold the left mouse button and drag to draw a small rectangle.

|-
||04.41
||Now release the mouse button.

|-
||04.44
|| You have drawn a rectangle!

|-
||04.47
|| Notice the eight handles on the rectangle.

|-
||04.50
|| Handles or control points, are the small blue squares that appear on the sides of the selected object.

|-
||04.58
|| We can use these control points to adjust the size of the rectangle.

|-
||05.03
|| As you hover your cursor over the control point, the cursor changes to a double-sided arrow.

|-
||05.10
||This indicates the directions in which the control point can be moved to manipulate the basic shape.

|-
||05.17
|| Let’s enlarge this rectangle so that it covers the title area completely. <Pause>

|-
||05.25
|| We can format these shapes too!

|-
||05.28
|| Right-click on the rectangle to view the context menu.

|-
||05.32
|| Here you can choose various options to modify the rectangle.

|-
||05.37
|| Click on '''Area'''. The '''Area '''dialog box appears.

|-
||05.43
|| In the '''Fill '''field, from the drop-down menu, choose '''Color'''.

|-
||05.48
|| Choose '''Magenta 4''' and click '''OK.'''

|-
||05.52
|| The color of the rectangle has changed.

|-
||05.56
|| The rectangle has now covered the text.

|-
||05.59
|| To make the text visible, first select the rectangle.

|-
||06.03
|| Now right-click to open the context menu.

|-
||06.07
|| Click on '''Arrange '''and then '''Send to back'''.

|-
||06.11
|| The text is visible again!

|-
||06.15
|| Here the rectangle has moved behind the text.

|-
||06.18 
|| In the '''Tasks''' pane, click on the '''preview''' of the '''Master''' '''Page'''.

|-
||06.23
|| Right-click and select '''Apply to All Slides'''.

|-
||06.27
|| Close the '''Master View '''by clicking on the '''Close Master View '''button.

|-
||06.32 
|| The formatting changes made in the Master are applied to all the slides in the presentation now.

|-
||06.39
|| Notice, that the rectangle is also displayed in all the pages.

|-
||06.45
|| Let us learn to change the layout of the slide

|-
||06.49
|| What are Layouts? Layouts are slide templates that are pre-formatted for position of content with place holders.

|-
||06.58
|| To view the slide layouts, from the right panel, click '''Layouts'''.

|-
||07.04
|| The layouts available in '''Impress''' are displayed.

|-
||07.07
|| Look at the layout thumbnails. It gives you an idea of how the slide will appear after the layout has been applied.

|-
||7.16
|| There are layouts with titles and two-columnar formats, layouts where you can position text in three columns and so on.

|-
||7.24
|| There are also blank layouts.  You can apply a blank layout to your slide and then create your own layouts.

|-
||07.32
|| Let’s apply a layout to a slide.

|-
||07.35
|| Select the slide '''Potential Alternatives''' and delete all text.

|-
||07.43
|| Now, from the layout pane on the right hand side, select '''title 2 content over content.'''

|-
||07.51
|| The slide now has three text boxes and a title area.

|-
||07.56
|| Notice, that the rectangle we inserted using the Master page, is still visible.

|-
||08.02
||This rectangle can only be edited using the Master slide.

|-
||08.07
||The settings in the Master slide overrides any formatting changes or layouts applied to slides.

|-
||08.15  
|| Let’s enter content in these boxes now.

|-
||08.19
|| In the first text box type: '''Strategy 1 PRO: Low cost CON: slow action'''

|-
||08.28
|| In the second text box type: '''Strategy 2 CON: High cost PRO: Fast Action'''

|-
||08.40
|| In the third text box type:  '''Due to lack of funds, Strategy 1 is better.'''

|-
||08.48 
|| You can similarly choose the layout type that is most suited to your presentation.

|-
||08.54
|| This concludes this tutorial. In this tutorial we learnt how to apply; Backgrounds for slides, Layouts for slides

|-
||09.03
|| Here is an assignment for you.

|-
||09.05

||Create a new background.

|-
||09.11
||Change the layout to title, content over content.

|-
||09.15

||Insert a new slide and apply a blank layout.

|-
||09.25
