Slide vs. Outline Navigation Panel

Question

Which view should I use in PowerPoint?

Answer

By clicking the View tab at the far right hand side of the program, you can select your view. Depending on how you are viewing it, you will either see the individual slides of your presentation or an outline layout.

  • If you select the Outline View, you will be able to compose your presentation using an outline format. Utilizing the outline format tends to help you organize your presentation.
  • You can easily switch back to the slide view by clicking the Normal button in the Presentation Views group.
