Outline View

Outline view is most useful for visualizing the flow of text-rich presentations. It displays
the title and bullet-point text of each slide in your slideshow. All the titles and bullet
points appear legibly in the slide navigator.

Outline view provides an easy way to order and reorder your bullet points as you
organize your presentation. You can add bullet points to existing text directly in the
slide navigator. You can also drag bullets from one slide to another, or drag them to a
higher or lower level within the same slide.

Drag bullets left or right

to move them to a

higher or lower outline

level. You can even drag

bullets from one slide to

another.

In outline view, you see

the text in titles and

bullet points. You can

add or edit text directly

in outline view.

Double-click a slide icon

to hide its bulleted text

in the slide navigator.
