Grouping Slides
In navigator view, you can create groups of slides by indenting them as many levels
deep as you need to. Indented (subordinate) slides are called children. Indenting slides
doesn’t affect how the slideshow plays.
To see navigator view, click View in the toolbar and choose Navigator.
Here are ways to work with groups of slides in navigator view:
To indent slides, select them and press Tab or drag the slides to the right until you see
m
a blue triangle.
You can create more indentation levels by pressing Tab again or dragging farther to
the right. However, you can indent a slide only one level deeper than the slide above it.
To remove an indentation, select the slides and drag them to the left or press Shift-Tab.
m
To show or collapse (hide) a group of slides, click the disclosure triangle to the left of m
the first slide above the group.
If a group of slides is collapsed so that you see only the top slide in the navigator view,
deleting the top slide deletes all its children, too. If the group isn’t collapsed, deleting
the top slide moves all its children up one level.
To move a group of slides, select the first slide in the group and drag the group to a
m
new location in the slide navigator.
Deleting Slides
You can delete a single slide or a group of slides.
Here are ways to delete slides:
To delete a slide, select the slide in the slide navigator and press the Delete key. You
m
can hold down the Shift key while clicking to select multiple slides to delete.
If you delete the first slide in a group (see “Grouping Slides” on page 42) while the
subordinate slides (children) are visible in the slide navigator, the children are moved
up by one level.
To delete a slide and all its children, hide them (click the arrow to the left of the top
m
slide) and press the Delete key.
If you accidentally delete slides, you can recover them immediately by choosing Edit >
Undo Delete.
Skipping Slides
You can skip a slide when your slideshow plays without deleting the slide from
your document.
