OS and versions

|-
|| Go to File>>open and double-click on “Sample-Impress.odp”
|| Lets open our presentation “Sample Impress” that we created in the previous tutorial.

|-
|| Point to the centre pane.
|| In the centre, we see the ‘Workspace’, which is our working area.

|-
|| Point to the 5 tabs at the top of the “Workspace” pane.
|| As you can see, the “Workspace” has 5 tabs called the “View buttons”.

|-
|| Point to the “Normal” tab.
|| Currently the “Normal” tab is selected.
This is the main view for creating individual slides.

|-
|| Click on the “Outline” tab.
|| The “Outline” view shows topic titles, bulleted and numbered lists for each slide in outline format.

|-
|| Click on the “Notes” tab.
|| The “Notes” view lets you add notes to each slide that are not seen when the presentation is shown.

|-
|| Click on the “Handout” tab.
|| The “Handout” view allows to print the slides for a handout.

Here we can choose the number slides that we want to print per page.

|-

|| The “Slide Sorter” view shows thumbnails of slides.

|-
|| Click on the “Normal” view button.
|| Lets click on the “Normal” view button again.

We can use these directly or modify them as per our requirements.

|-
|| Point to the 5 sections again.

Select the second slide, in the “Slides” pane, by clicking on it.

We see that a new blank slide has been inserted after the second slide.

Type ‘Short Term Strategy’.
Click outside the box.
