00:01 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Slide Show creation in LibreOffice Impress.
00:08 In this tutorial we will learn about creating:

Slide Shows

00:14 Slide Transitions and
00:17 Automatic Slide Shows
00:20 This tutorial is recorded using

Ubuntu Linux OS version 18.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 6.3.5

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.
