+Abstract
+
+Recent evaluations of Large Language Models (LLMs) have centered around testing their zero-shot/few-shot capabilities for basic natural lan-guage tasks and their ability to translate instruc-tions into tool APIs. However, the evaluation of LLMs utilizing complex tools to finish multi-turn, multi-modal instructions in a complex multi-modal environment has not been inves-tigated. To address this gap, we introduce the PowerPoint Task Completion (PPTC) bench-mark to assess LLMs’ ability to create and edit PPT files based on user instructions. It con-tains 279 multi-turn sessions covering diverse topics and hundreds of instructions involving multi-modal operations. We also propose the PPTX-Match Evaluation System that evaluates if LLMs finish the instruction based on the pre-diction file rather than the label API sequence, thus it supports various LLM-generated API sequences. We measure 3 closed LLMs and 6 open-source LLMs. The results show that GPT-4 outperforms other LLMs with 75.1% accuracy in single-turn dialogue testing but faces challenges in completing entire sessions, achieving just 6% session accuracy. We find three main error causes in our benchmark: er-ror accumulation in the multi-turn session, long PPT template processing, and multi-modality perception. These pose great challenges for fu-ture LLM and agent systems. We release the data, code, and evaluation system of PPTC at

+1 Introduction
+
+Recent evaluation works for Large Language Mod-els (e.g. ChatGPT and GPT-4 (OpenAI, 2023)) fo-cus on their zero-shot/few-shot abilities on basic natural language tasks (Jiao et al., 2023; Zhong et al., 2023; Wang et al., 2023b; Qin et al., 2023a) and their tool-use ability to generate APIs for solv-ing user instructions, such as basic APIs like a calculator in tool transformer (Schick et al., 2023),

+RapidAPIs in ToolLLM (Qin et al., 2023c), and hugggingface APIs in Gorilla (Patil et al., 2023). However, these tool-use works emphasize the trans-lation of natural language instructions into APIs and ignore the challenge of using APIs in the ob-servation of complex multi-modal environments to finish user instructions. Also, their evaluation approach focuses on comparing the generated APIs with the label API sequence, assuming there’s only one unique solution. This approach becomes im-practicable in situations with multiple/unlimited correct solutions. To address these challenges, we introduce Power-Point Task Completion (PPTC), a benchmark that measures LLMs’ performance in creating and editing PPT file tasks based on user instructions. We choose PowerPoint as it includes various elements like textbox, table, and image and supports a wider range of APIs than Word and Ex-cel. Our benchmark has three distinctive features

+> arXiv:2311.01767v2 [cs.CL] 7 Nov 2023 Figure 2: We illustrate how LLMs complete one turn in a session. (A) To prompt the LLM, we provide it with the current instruction, previous instructions (dialogue history), PPT file content, and the API reference file. ’PPT reader’ is a function that transforms the PPT file into the text-based format as the PPT file content. (B) The LLM then generates the API sequence and executes it to obtain the prediction PPT file. (C) We evaluate attributes and position relations in the prediction file.
+
+from other task completion benchmarks: (1) Multi-turn dialogue with varying difficulty . Our PPTC benchmark simulates the multi-turn dialogue ses-sion between the user and the LLM (see Figure 1) and contains 279 multi-turn sessions. Each multi-turn session in our benchmark includes 2 to 17 turns. Each turn consists of a user instruction that describes the user’s needs, a feasible solution that provides the correct solution, and the resulting label output file. Some turns can be easily addressed us-ing a single API, while over half of the instructions require multiple APIs for completion. We provide the LLM with a reference API file that contains all feasible APIs for selection. (2) Multi-modality .Finishing the instruction of our benchmark requires understanding the multi-modal PPT file content and using multi-modal API operations (e.g., PPTC has 268 image operation-related instructions). (3)
+
+Evaluation based on the final status : We propose the PPTX-Match Evaluation system to evaluate the LLM’s outcome. To identify if the LLM completes the instruction, it checks the PPT file produced by executing the LLM-generated APIs rather than the LLM-generated APIs, thus all API sequences that lead to the correct final status are acceptable. To finish the instruction, we use the current in-struction, past turns’ instructions (dialogue history), the PPT file content (specific environment informa-tion), and the reference API file as the input to prompt the LLM to generate an API sequence as the solution (See Figure 2 (A)). Then we use the API executor to execute the API sequence and re-turn the user the resulting PPT file (See Figure 2 (B)). We name the resulting PPT file as the predic-tion file. In the evaluation step (See Figure 2 (C)), the PPTX-Match Evaluation system first uses the Python-PPTX library to extract all attributes from the prediction PPT file and the label output file. Then it uses the position relation checker to check if objects’ positions conform to the label relation and the attribute content checker to check if the at-tribute’s content is matched with the corresponding label attribute’s content. The LLM correctly com-pletes the current turn’s instruction if all attributes of the file pass these tests. Evaluation metrics in-clude turn-based accuracy which is the ratio of correctly completed turns to the total number of turns and session-based accuracy which is the ra-tio of correctly completed sessions to the overall session count. We measure the performance of three closed-source LLMs (GPT-4, ChatGPT, and Davince-003) and six open-source LLMs (e.g., LLaMa-2) in our benchmark. We further test planning (e.g., CoT (Wei et al., 2022)) and content selection al-gorithms’ performance based on GPT-4. Experi-ment results show that GPT-4 is the strongest LLM among all LLMs but still encounters challenges when completing entire multi-turn sessions. For ex-ample, although GPT-4 achieves 75.1% turn-based accuracy in the creating new PPT file task, it only achieves 22.7% session-based accuracy as errors made in previous turns. GPT-4 and other LLMs also struggle to process long PPT templates (com-plex file environment). For example, GPT-4 only achieves 38.1% turn-based accuracy in the edit-ing task. We further find that GPT-4 struggles to finish instructions involving non-text modality op-erations, especially for position-related operations, such as ’Put object A on the top of the slide’. It only achieves 24% accuracy in these instructions. In summary, this paper has the following contri-butions: (1) We propose the PowerPoint Task Completion benchmark to measure LLM’s task completion per-formance within the PowerPoint official software. This benchmark contains 279 multi-turn sessions with hundreds of multi-modal instructions in the complex multi-modal environment. (2) We propose the PPTX-evaluation system to automatically measure LLMs’ performance in our benchmark. We test 3 closed-source LLMs and 6 open-source LLMs and find that GPT-4 is the strongest LLM among all LLMs. (3) We further analyze LLMs in our benchmarks and find three key error factors: error accumulation in the session, long PPT template processing, and multi-modality perception. These findings pose significant challenges for future LLMs and LLM-based systems.
+
+2 PPTC Benchmark
+
+In this section, we introduce our Power-Point Task Completion (PPTC) benchmark, including the overview of our benchmark, its collection and validation process, and the PPTX-Match Evalua-tion System for evaluation. We further analyze the statistics information of our benchmark.
+
+2.1 Benchmark Overview Benchmark components Our benchmark focuses on two basic tasks within PowerPoint: creating the new PPT file and editing the existing long PPT template for measuring long PPT Content under-standing. We have gathered 229 multi-turn dia-logue sessions for creating the new PPT file and 50 sessions for editing existing templates. Each multi-turn session includes 2 to 17 turns. Each turn comprises three parts: (1) the user instruction (2) the label output file as the ground truth (3) one feasi-ble API sequence for finishing the instruction. Our benchmark also contains an API reference file that includes 49 feasible APIs for various operations and can complete all instructions in our benchmark. For each API, we describe its functionality and arguments and provide usage guidelines. For com-plex APIs, we also offer example cases. We list the details of all APIs in Appendix A.
+
+Task description To complete the instruction in one turn, in general, the AI assistant must compre-hend the user’s current and prior instructions for context. It should also analyze the content of the PPT file to identify relevant objects mentioned in the instruction. Additionally, it needs to select ap-propriate APIs from a reference API file to achieve the user’s goals. So we use these as the input of the AI assistant and it should output an API sequence as the solution. Then, it executes this API sequence and provides the user with the resulting PPT file as its response (See the whole process in Figure 2).
+
+Addressing LLM limitations in our bench-mark Compared to the general AI assistant, LLMs still have two limitations for completing the task in our benchmarks: (1) LLMs can not directly pro-cess the PPT file. So we provide a PPT reader function that extracts all shapes and their informa-tion from the PPT file and transforms them into the text format as the PPT file content. Then LLMs can understand and process the PPT file content. (2) LLMs cannot directly use PPT software through a keyboard and mouse. Therefore, we have defined PPT APIs based on the operational logic within the PPT software. and provide an implementation for these APIs in Python that can swiftly gener-ate PPT files. In future work, it may be possible to explore the use of large multimodal models to understand on-screen content and implement APIs using a keyboard and mouse.
+
+2.2 Benchmark Collection Design Principles We follow these principles to design our benchmark: (1) Multi-turn instructions: One session in our benchmark should contain multi-turn instructions to finish the user’s complex need. (2) Instructions of varying difficulty: Some instruc-tions can be achieved with a single API, while others necessitate a sequence of APIs for success-ful completion. (3) Diverse multimodal operations: User instructions should cover a wide range of op-erations on PPT, such as text-related, image-related, and position-related APIs. (4) Topic Consistency: The dialogue in a session should center around the session topic. Each user instruction in a session aligns closely with the previous instructions (the context), ensuring a coherent and contextually rel-evant dialogue flow. (5) Practicability First: The session topic and specific instructions should simu-late the user’s need in real world
+
+Benchmark Collection and Validation To col-lect user instructions, we engage 6 skilled crowd workers who craft instructions in accordance with the principles we’ve outlined. Our crowd workers comprise professional data science engineers well-versed in PowerPoint. To achieve practicability first, we request crowd workers to write instruc-tions based on their actual PowerPoint experience. On each session, the workers are asked to first find and list a practicable session topic. For the edit-ing PPT template task, the topic must based on the template file background and is practicable to the template *. To achieve multi-instructions and topic consistency, the workers write instructions step by step and make them consistent with the topic. To achieve diverse multi-operations, we ask them not to write session that only involves a single modality operation. Each worker takes on a specific role in the instructional writing work and is encouraged to write instructions in his/her own words. Workers were asked to spend at least 20 minutes on every session. We delete repeated sessions and short ses-sions that have no more than 50 tokens. Then we ask the seventh worker to write the

+> *We collect 50 PPT templates from the SlidesCarni-val website ( ). SlidesCarnival is a free and open-source PPT template web-site. Each session in the editing task has a unique template. We encourage topic diversity in our templates. We remove templates that are too short (2 ∼5 slides) and have repeated topics.
+
+feasible API sequence with minimal API usage for each instruction. Next, the workers create the PPT label file by using the provided API sequence. During the whole process, the principal engineer reviews and refines the instructions and API se-quences written by the above 7 workers for initial quality assurance. To ensure the data quality of this benchmark, the three authors of this paper further undertake the fol-lowing validation steps: (1) Assessing Instruction Clarity and Relevance: They examine whether the instructions are clear, contextually related to the session topic, and align with the ongoing conver-sation. (2) API Sequence Execution: The authors execute the provided API sequences to identify and rectify coding errors. (3) Goal Achievement Check: They verify if the instructions’ intended goals are successfully completed in the label files. In the event that errors are identified during this validation process, the authors promptly report them to the respective workers for revision. The three authors are computer science senior students and researchers.
+
+2.3 PPTX-Match Evaluation System
+
+We design the PPTX-Match Evaluation System to evaluate LLMs’ performance on the PPTC bench-mark. Specifically, our PPTX-Match Evaluation System first uses a Python-PPTX Content Reader Module to iterate over all shapes in the prediction PPT file produced with the LLM and the label out-put file. A shape in the PPTX library typically refers to an individual object, such as a text box or table. Then our system extracts attributes like text, style, and position of the shapes using the PPTX library. Next, we check all attributes from the prediction PPT file. For non-position attributes (e.g., text content), we first convert it and the cor-responding attribute in the label PPT file into two strings, and then we use the Exact Match method to examine if the two strings are the same. If they are different or we do not find the corresponding attribute in the label file, then we find an incorrect match. For the position attribute (e.g., location in-formation), we focus on checking if the objects in the prediction PPT file satisfy the correct position relation <A, B, REL>, where A and B are objects that should satisfy the relation REL. In the bench-mark collection process, we ask crowd workers to label the position relation that objects should sat-isfy to finish the instruction. During the evaluation Figure 3: Statistics for PPTC. a) Session turn number distribution. b) Instruction API number distribution (tokens). c) Distribution of instructions involving Chart, Table, Picture, and Position. Instructions involving ’Position’ need the system to conduct position-related operations based on the understanding of spatial information. Note that one instruction may involve multiple different modalities.
+
+phase, we extract the position attributes of objects A and B and use predefined functions to verify if the objects’ position attributes satisfy the position relation. If there are no incorrect matches for all non-position attributes and no rule violations for all position-related attributes, we consider the LLM has successfully completed the user instruction.
+
+2.4 Benchmark Statistics Analysis
+
+To understand the properties of PPTC, we analyze the instructions and APIs in the benchmark. Specif-ically, we explore (i) the number of turns in a ses-sion, (ii) the difficulty of the instruction in terms of the number of APIs required to finish it, and (iii) the number of multi-modality instructions. We report statistics about the PPTC benchmark in Figure 3.
+
+The number of turns in a session The session turn number distribution (Figure 3 (a)), measured as the number of turns in a session, shows that all sessions in our benchmark have at least two turns and almost all sessions have at least 3 turns (be-tween 3 and 13 turns for the 5th to 95th percentile, respectively). The longest session has 17 turns, which is very challenging as the errors made in previous turns can influence the completion of the current instruction.
+
+Diffculty varies in APIs number The number of APIs in a sequence falls between 1 and 5 for the 5th to 95th percentile (Figure 3 (b)), respec-tively, shows that our instructions’ difficulty varies from a simple sentence that can be finished by one API to a complex instruction that requires the LLM to generate multiple APIs. The longest API se-quence consists of 29 APIs. Generating long API sequences is very challenging as the LLM needs to understand sub-goals in the complex instruction, select appropriate APIs from the file, and generate APIs in a reliable order.
+
+Rich multi-modal instructions Our benchmark has hundreds of instructions that involve multi-modalities content (Figure 3 (c)). The "chart" modality has the fewest instructions, with 120, while the "position" modality has the most, with 292 instructions. To finish these instructions, LLMs need to employ related-modal APIs based on the understanding of multi-modal file content.
+
+3 Algorithms
+
+In this section, we introduce the algorithms we con-sidered to enhance the LLM’s performance in our benchmark. These algorithms can be categorized into two approaches: planning algorithms that help the LLM in decomposing the user instruction and solving it step by step and selection algorithms that assist the LLM in choosing important environmen-tal information or APIs.
+
+3.1 Planning Algorithms
+
+Complex user instructions often require multiple intermediate steps to complete. We mainly consider two planning algorithms:
+
+Zero-shot-CoT (Kojima et al., 2022) enables LLMs to autonomously generate intermediate reasoning processes for complex instruction by prompting LLMs to "Let’s think step by step".
+
+Tree of Thoughts (ToT) (Yao et al., 2023) en-ables LLMs to follow tree-like reasoning paths, where each tree node represents a thinking state. It leverages LLMs to generate evaluations or votes on different thoughts. 3.2 Selection Algorithms
+
+Combining the whole PPT file and the whole API file into the LLM’s input can result in an over-whelming amount of redundant information, such as irrelevant file content and unhelpful APIs. Filter-ing the redundant information would improve the efficiency of the LLM. In this context, we primarily focus on two algorithms for selecting the PPT file content and APIs, respectively:
+
+Content Selection algorithm Firstly, we extract all shapes of the PPT file by Python-PPTX. Next, we prompt the LLM to select the shapes for com-pleting the user’s instruction. We show the prompt in Figure 8, in which we add three demonstration examples to guide the LLM to do selection. In this algorithm, we replace the whole PPT file with the selected shapes when prompting the LLM to generate the API sequence.
+
+API Selection algorithm The API selection al-gorithm is based on the embedding similarity to select the most relevant APIs for user instructions. Specifically, we use the text embedding API to get the embeddings of all API descriptions and the cur-rent user instruction. Next, we compute the cosine similarity between the instruction embedding and each API description’s embedding and rank them based on the similarity score. In this algorithm, we replace the whole reference API file with the top
+
+k APIs when prompting the LLM to generate the API sequence.
+
+4 Experiments
+
+4.1 Large Language Models Selected for Evaluation
+
+Here, we assess different cutting-edge large lan-guage models using our benchmark. These chosen models showcase a wide array of capabilities and are highly regarded in the field. The evaluated large language models include 3 closed-source LLMs and 6 open-source LLMs: • GPT-4 (OpenAI, 2023): The latest LLM in the GPT series. GPT-4 is a cutting-edge, large-scale generative pre-trained transformer model. It offers improved performance and a wider knowledge base compared to its prede-cessors. It showcases human-level proficiency in several scenarios. • ChatGPT : ChatGPT is a conversational AI model crafted for dynamic interactions. It’s learned from extensive instruction data and fine-tuned through reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF). This empow-ers it to deliver responses that align with hu-man expectations, maintaining context and coherence in conversations. • Text-Davinci-003 (Brown et al., 2020): GPT-3.5 sits between GPT-3 and GPT-4, enhancing performance via additional instruction tuning. It acts as a link between these models, facil-itating comparison. We’ve chosen the Text-Davinci-003 variant from the GPT-3.5 series for our evaluation. • LLaMa-2-Chat (Touvron et al., 2023): LLaMa 2, an auto-regressive open-source lan-guage model, employs an optimized trans-former design. Chat versions utilize super-vised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to match human preferences for helpfulness and safety. • Baichuan-Chat : It is a transformer model trained on approximately 1.2 trillion tokens. It supports both Chinese and English, with a context window length of 4096. • Baichuan-2-Chat (Yang et al., 2023): It is a large-scale multilingual language model trained from scratch, on 2.6 trillion tokens. The chat version uses Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Reinforcement Learning from Hu-man Feedback (RLHF) to align with humans. • WizardLM v1.2 (Xu et al., 2023a): WizardLM v1.2 is finetuned from LLaMa 2 using super-vised instruction fine-tuning, where instruc-tions are created by rewriting the initial in-structions step by step. • Vicuna v1.5 (16k) (Chiang et al., 2023): Vi-cuna v1.5 (16k) is finetuned from LLaMa 2 us-ing supervised instruction fine-tuning and lin-ear RoPE scaling. It’s trained on about 125K conversations sourced from ShareGPT.com. • Code-LLaMa-instruct (Chiang et al., 2023): Code-LLaMa is a LLaMa-based LLM de-signed for general code completion and un-derstanding. Its instruction version further supports the chat function with users. Code LLaMa models feature a multitask training ob-jective consisting of both autoregressive and causal infilling prediction (predicting the miss-ing part of a program given a surrounding con-text).
+
+4.2 Experimental Setup
+
+In this section, we provide an overview of the ex-perimental setup utilized to assess the performance of LLMs on our PPTC benchmark.
+
+4.2.1 Turn-Based and Session-Based Evaluations
+
+We consider two performance evaluation ap-proaches in our benchmark: turn-based and session-based evaluations. For the turn-based evaluation, we measure the LLM’s ability to finish a single turn. Specifically, in this evaluation, we assume that the previous turns have been correctly finished, and we prompt the LLM to generate the API sequence to finish the current turn’s user instruction. The prompt consists of the task instruction for finishing the current user instruction, the API file contain-ing feasible APIs, the parsed PPT file content from the PPT file, and dialogue history consisting of instructions of previous turns with their feasible API sequences (see the left of Figure 4). For the session-based evaluation, we measure the LLM’s ability to finish a session containing multiple turns. For all turns in a session, we prompt the LLM to finish them sequentially. The prompt in this eval-uation has two differences: the API solutions for previous turns in dialogue history are the outputs of the LLM instead of the correct API sequences. (2) The PPT content is parsed from the PPT file obtained by executing the previous outputs of the LLM (see the right of Figure 4). That means the error made by LLMs in previous turns would influ-ence subsequent turns.
+
+Metrics For turn-based evaluation, we report the turn-based accuracy as the ratio of the number of successfully finished turns to the total number of turns. We also report the average token num-ber of the input of one turn and the average API number for finishing one turn as the cost measure-ment. For session-based evaluation, we report the session-based accuracy as the ratio of the number of successfully finished sessions to the total num-ber of sessions. We also report the average value of the token number of all inputs in one session and the average API number required to complete one session as the cost measurement.
+
+Inference prompt in PPTC
+
+> (Task instruction ) You are an AI assistant to help the user to operate PowerPoint and edit the contents. Give you the user instruction:<Current user instruc-tion>, you can complete it based on the following APIs and PPT file content. Current you are at page <Page id>. Please finish the user instruction with the functions you have. Don’t generate instructions be-yond what the user has instructed. Don’t guess what the user may instruct in the next step and generete API for them. Don’t use python loop to call API. You can only call API once in one line. If the user does not specify the page to be modified, you can directly start using the APIs without having to navigate to other pages. You need to generate code which can finish the user instruction. The multiple lines of code should be surrounded by <code> and </code> such as: <code> API(); API(); </code> For example, if the user instruction is "create a slide", then the answer should be: <code> create_slide(); </code> (API file )Now, you have access to alist of PowerPoint APIs with the following functions: <APIs and their descriptions> (e.g.,API(name="set_width", parameters="(width)", description="This API sets the width of the selected object.", parameter _description="It takes one parameter ’width’, the width of an object in centimeters as float.", composition _instruction="You should first choose an object before you can change the width of it.", api_desc="width of picture and shapes") ) (PPT file content ) All the PPT contents are: <Begin of PPT>

+
+Figure 4: The inference prompt we used in both turn-based and session-based evaluation settings. In the turn-based evaluation, we assess the LLM’s performance for the current turn and assume the LLM has correctly finished previous turns. We then use feasible API se-quences of previous turns as the AI response in the dia-logue history and parse the label file of previous turns as the PPT file content. In the session-based evaluation, we evaluate the completion of the entire session and do not assume the LLM has correctly finished previous turns. We use the LLM’s generated API sequences as the response and parsed the LLM prediction file as the PPT file content. 4.3 Implementation Details
+
+All experiments were conducted using the respec-tive language models’ API provided by Azure Ope-nAI Service †. Azure OpenAI services offer two API types: completion and chat completion. Com-pletion API generates text from prompts, while chat completion API responds based on conversa-tion history and new input. We use the completion API for Text-Davinci-003 and the chat completion API for ChatGPT and GPT-4. We set a temperature of zero for deterministic output and a max token limit of 2048. The frequency penalty and top p are kept at their default values of zero and 1, respec-tively. We use the text-embedding-ada-002 API as the embedding API in the API selection algorithm and set k as 15. For open-source LLMs, we choose the chat version of LLaMa-2, the v1.2 version of WizardLM, and the chat version of Baichuan as our open-source LLMs. We choose the 13 billion parameters model of the three LLMs. For the zero-shot CoT method, we add the sen-tence ’Let’s think step by step’ after the dialogue history of the prompt. For the ToT method, we follow the official code to run it ‡. We run the four algorithm methods based on the GPT-4 model. If the token number of the input prompt is be-yond the token limit, we cut the PPT file content to reduce the token number of the prompt.
+
+4.4 Main results
+
+We report the results of LLMs in both turn-based and session-based evaluations in Table 1 and 2. From the results, we highlight the following key findings.
+
+(1) Superior Performance of GPT-4: GPT-4 consistently outperforms other closed-source and open-source LLMs in both two tasks. Impressively, GPT-4 achieves 75.1% turn-based accuracy in the creating new PPT file task, demonstrating its strong capability to finish one turn of the user instruction. GPT-4 also has a lower API cost compared to other closed-source LLMs since its precise API usage. GPT-4 incurs the highest token expense when edit-ing PPT templates. That is because its higher token limit than other LLMs allows us to input more PPT template content.

+> † en-us/products/cognitive-services/ openai-service
+> ‡ToT: tree-of-thought-llm
+
+(2) Code continual pre-training and further instruction finetuning can boost open-source LLMs’ performance. : Based on Table 1, it’s evi-dent that current open-source LLMs struggle to match the performance of closed-source LLMs. For example, LLaMa-2-chat only achieves 16.2% turn-based accuracy in the creating new PPT file task, which is far from the performance achieved by closed-source LLMs. We further find that code continual pretraining (Code-LLaMa) and instruc-tion fine-tuning based on LLaMa-2 (WizardLM and Vicuna) can further improve LLaMa-2 per-formance obviously. For example, Code-LLaMa improves LLaMa-2’s turn-based accuracy in the creating new PPT file task by 20.4 %. This obser-vation suggests that there’s untapped potential in open-source LLMs when it comes to our bench-mark, and this potential can be unlocked further by code pre-training and enhancing instruction follow-ing ability.
+
+(3) Planning and selection algorithms can im-prove LLMs’ turn-based performance From Ta-ble 2, we observe that the planning algorithms (CoT and ToT) can further improve the turn-based per-formance of GPT-4 by 1 ∼2 percent. However, we surprisingly find that the more complex ToT al-gorithm does not outperform the zero-shot CoT algorithm with a 5 ∼10 times token cost. Content and API selection algorithms can further improve the turn-based performance of GPT-4 by 1 ∼ 5 per-cent. That is because they reduce the task difficulty by filtering irrelevant PPT content/APIs in the input prompt. The API selection algorithm also reduces the average token cost by reducing the number of APIs listed in the prompt. However, for the chal-lenging session-based evaluation, these algorithms can not improve GPT-4’s performance or improve it slightly.
+
+4.5 Three challenges in our PPTC benchmark
+
+From the result Table 1 and Figure 5. we highlight the following three key challenges.
+
+(1) Error accumulation makes LLMs perfor-mance poor in finishing the entire multi-turn session. : The performance of all LLMs in handling sessions consisting of multiple turns is notably poor. Even GPT-4, which performs well in turn-based evaluation, achieves only a 22.7% session-based accuracy for the "creating new PPT file" task and a mere 6.0% session-based accuracy for the "editing PPT template" task.

+
+usually fail to improve session-based accuracy. In some cases, they can even make the performance worse. The session-based evaluation is challeng-ing since errors made in previous turns make the LLM fail to finish the session and also influence the completion of the current turn. Also, we need more advanced planning algorithms to complete the multi-turn session.
+
+(2) LLMs perform badly in processing long PPT template: Current LLMs’ performance in the editing PPT temples task is pretty poor. For exam-ple, the strongest GPT-4 only achieves 38.1% turn-based accuracy and 6.0% session-based accuracy in this task. Other LLMs’ performance is even poorer. The content selection algorithm can partially solve this challenge by filtering out irrelevant file content, but GPT-4 with it still only achieves 43.1% turn-based accuracy. That means current LLMs (e.g., GPT-4) still struggle to handle complex and lengthy PPT templates. For open-source LLMs, there’s a risk of information loss due to token limitations (typically 2 ∼4K tokens limit), which often require truncating lengthy PPT content. When it comes to session-based performance, the accuracy remains nearly zero. This implies that current LLMs are still far from being ideal PPT agents capable of effectively assisting users in editing PPT templates during a multi-turn dialogue session.
+
+(3) Multi-modal instructions increase the LLM’s failure rate significantly. To assess LLMs’ task completion performance for instructions in-volving multi-modal operations (Table, Chart, Pic-ture, Position, and text), we calculate the average accuracy of GPT-4 for instructions involving each modality, respectively. This is done by dividing the number of correctly completed instructions within each modality by the total number of instructions involving that modality’s operation. The results are presented in Figure 5 (a). From the figure, we observe that GPT-4 performs exceptionally well in the text modality, achieving an accuracy of 85.6%. Its performance becomes poorer when process-ing structured data (Chart and Table), with 12.4% and 16.2% lower accuracy. Instructions involv-ing picture-related operation pose an even greater challenge for GPT-4, as it achieves a 56.8% turn-based accuracy in this modality. GPT-4 exhibits its weakest performance in instructions involving position-related (spatial) operations, with only 24% accuracy. This underscores GPT-4’s limitations in spatial perception ability.
+
+5 Analysis
+
+In this section, we analyze the reasons for GPT-4’s errors. We further analyze the influence of model size and dialogue history.
+
+5.1 Error Analysis of GPT-4 in our benchmark
+
+To analyze the error made by GPT-4, in our bench-mark, we gather 50 wrong samples for each of the two tasks in our benchmark in the turn-based eval-uation. We find that these wrong samples fall into four error types and visualize the distribution of these four main error types in Figure 5 (b): (1) Po-Figure 5: We illustrate the analysis results of the creating new PPT file task (task 1) and the editing PPT template task (task 2). In sub-figure (a), we report the average turn-based accuracy for instructions involving chart, table, picture, position, and pure text. We don’t draw the accuracy of task 2 as no chart instruction in this task. In sub-figure (b), we report the ratio of four common errors made by GPT-4. In sub-figure (c), we report the accuracy with the model size. We don’t plot the session-based accuracy of task 2 as it is zero.
+
+sition errors: These occur when GPT-4 struggles with instructions involving position adjustments. For example, when asked to move the shape to the bottom of the slide, GPT-4 wrongly calls the "set _ top" API. position error is the main error in the creating new PPT file task as this task contains many instructions involving position operation. (2) Calling unavailable APIs: GPT-4 sometimes gener-ates APIs that don’t actually exist in the reference API file, resulting in what we call the "API hallu-cination problem." (3) Misunderstanding PPT file content: GPT-4’s comprehension of the PPT con-tent can be flawed, leading to the generation of incorrect API sequences. For example, when in-structed to make the font size of the current slide’s title consistent with previous slides, GPT-4 set a font size that is different from what was used in previous slides’ titles. In the editing template task, misunderstanding the PPT content becomes the main error since this task needs to understand the complex PPT template. (4) Unfollowing Power-point task rules: Completing Powerpoint tasks de-mands a deep understanding of various task rules. For instance, writing a new slide title requires first deleting the original text and then inserting the new title into the text box. However, GPT-4 may di-rectly insert the new content. For the session-based evaluation, we also collect 50 wrong examples. We find that the main reason for the poor session-based performance is the LLM fails to finish the session once it makes an error in one turn of the session. The reasons for errors made in a single turn are similar to those in the turn-based evaluation. One unique phenomenon in this evaluation is that the LLM would repeat previous errors (e.g., employing infeasible APIs) in subsequent turns.
+
+5.2 Does bigger LLM work better on PPTC?
+
+To investigate how the model size impacts the LLM’s performance in our benchmark, we con-duct tests using LLaMa-2-chat LLM with 7, 13, and 70 billion parameters and plot the results in Figure 5 (c). We observe that larger LLM consis-tently achieve higher turn-based accuracy for both the creating new PPT and editing PPT template tasks. For example, in the creating new PPT file task, we find that the turn-based accuracy increases from 13.2 (7B) to 30.1 (70B). However, we do not observe a clear positive correlation between model size and session-based performance. One possible explanation is that although the 70B LLM can cor-rectly finish more intermediate steps, it still falls short of completing the entire session. To improve the session-based performance, a larger LLM may be necessary.
+
+5.3 Does dialogue history help LLMs to generate the API sequence?
+
+To investigate the influence of dialogue history in our prompt (see Figure 4), we make an ablation experiment for the dialogue history component of our turn-based evaluation prompt §. In this evalua-tion, the dialogue history contains previous turns along with their feasible API sequences. When we removed the dialogue history from the prompt, we observed a decline in GPT-4’s performance. Specif-ically, GPT-4 drops its performance from 75.1 %
+
+> §The task instruction, current user instruction, API file, PPT content in the prompt are necessary parts for generating the API sequence. So we don’t conduct ablation studies on them.
+
+to 73.1 % in the creating new PPT file task and decreases its performance by 6.2 % in the editing template task. This experiment shows the positive effect of the dialogue history, as it helps the LLM to both understand the dialogue background and instruct the LLM to correctly use the APIs, similar to few-shot demonstration examples.

+6 Related Works
+
+Large Language Models like ChatGPT, GPT-4 (Bubeck et al., 2023; OpenAI, 2023), and Bard have billions of parameters and have been trained on the Internet corpus with trillions of tokens. They can write code (Liu et al., 2023a), prove mathemat-ical theorems (Jiang et al., 2022), pass the profes-sional exam (Zhong et al., 2023; Gilson et al., 2023; Katz et al., 2023), and also perform well on other basic natural language tasks (Kim et al., 2023; Jiao et al., 2023; Zhong et al., 2023; Wang et al., 2023b). That raises the hope of achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI). To further boost LLM’s performance on the spe-cific task, one approach involves prompting en-gineerings, such as the chain of thought prompt-ing (Wei et al., 2022; Shi et al., 2022; Yao et al., 2023), self-consistency (Wang et al., 2022) and the least to most prompting (Zhou et al., 2022). An-other approach aims to use feedback to improve per-formance. The self-refine method (Madaan et al., 2023) refines the output through iterative feedback and refinement Provided by LLM itself. The Re-flexion (Shinn et al., 2023) method generates and stores the reflection based on the sparse reward signal and then uses the reflection to induce bet-ter decisions in subsequent trials. The learning to program method (Guo et al., 2023) learns the task program by inducing the general solutions from the errors (feedback) iteratively and uses the program to guide the inference.
+
+Task completion benchmarks for measuring large language models . To measure LLM’s task completion performance, Saycan (Brohan et al., 2023) and VirtualHome (Puig et al., 2018) bench-marks ask LLM to generate the correct action se-quence for controlling the robot to finish user in-struction. WebShop (Yao et al., 2022) and Android in the wild (Rawles et al., 2023) ask LLM to navi-gate websites and conduct actions to meet the user requirement. APIBench (Patil et al., 2023) and ToolBench (Xu et al., 2023b; Qin et al., 2023b) in-volve selecting and using APIs to complete the task instruction. Agentbench (Liu et al., 2023b)assesses LLM as autonomous agents in 8 environments and WebArena (Zhou et al., 2023) considers task com-pletion in web-based interactions.
+
+AI assistant system for complex task com-pletion For more complex tasks that involve us-ing tools and utilizing environmental information, there are many strong AI systems (e.g., TaskMa-trix (Liang et al., 2023)) that help the user finish the complex task. One approach involves connecting massive models and tools with the Large Language Model for task completion. Examples include Visual ChatGPT (Wu et al., 2023) and Hugging-GPT (Shen et al., 2023) which use LLM to deploy task-specific models to finish the user instruction based on the observation of task information (e.g., visual information), Voyager (Wang et al., 2023a) that uses the fixed LLM to continually learn skills (tools) based on the observation of the Minecraft environment. Another approach involves training an end-to-end LLM to finish the user instruction. Examples include Gorilla (Patil et al., 2023) for generating API calls to finish the user query by using the API bench to fine-tune the pre-trained LLaMA (Touvron et al., 2023) model. PaLM-E (Driess et al., 2023) for various robot reasoning tasks by fine-tuning the pretrained PaLM (Chowd-hery et al., 2022) model using features from sensor modalities. Different from the above systems, we focus on the research topic of the AI assistant sys-tem in office software.
+
+7 Conclusion
+
+We introduce the PowerPoint Task Completion benchmark to measure LLMs’ ability to complete user instructions within the context of the Power-Point software. It contains hundreds of multi-turn sessions with different topics and thousands of in-structions with varying levels of difficulty. We fur-ther propose the PPTX-evaluation system to access and compare the performance of different LLMs. Results show that GPT-4 is the strongest LLM but still performs poorly in finishing entire sessions. We further analyze the behavior of LLMs and find three main error factors that limit their performance. Our benchmark and findings can help the research community design better AI task completion assis-tants. 8 Limitations
+
+Our benchmark does not consider instructions that involve subjective evaluation. For example, the user may want to make the slide more beautiful. However, it’s hard to automatically evaluate if the generated file (the model output) is more beautiful. Another limitation is that we do not consider the instructions that need non-API operations. For ex-ample, the user may want to draw a cat on the slide. That instruction needs the AI-assistant system to draw the cat by dragging the mouse and is still in-feasible for LLMs and LLM-based systems. We only consider instructions that can be completed by directly executing the API sequence.

+
+# Designing a presentation
+
+In addition to careful planning of the content, as discussed in Chapter 1 Introducing Impress , you
+
+need to plan the appearance of the presentation. It is best to do this after you have developed an
+
+outline, because the outline will determine some of the requirements for the appearance of the
+
+slides. For example:
+
+• What color combinations (background and text) will look good and also be easy for your
+
+audience to read?
+
+• Would a picture help your audience understand the contents better?
+
+• Do you want particular text and a picture to appear on all the slides? For example a
+
+company name and logo.
+
+• Would the audience benefit from having the slides numbered so that they can quickly refer
+
+to one of them?
+
+• Do you want a background graphic or gradient? If so, you need to pick something that does
+
+not interfere or clash with content such as the colors used in charts.
+
+• Will you need one slide master or more than one? Will one slide design suit all of the
+
+content?
+
+You can change the appearance of slides as you develop the presentation, but planning ahead will
+
+save you time in the long run.
+
+# What are slide masters?
+
+A slide master is a slide that is used as the starting point for other slides. It is similar to a page style
+
+in Writer: it controls the basic formatting of all slides based on it. A slide presentation can have
+
+more than one slide master.
+
+Note
+
+LibreOffice uses three terms for one concept: s lide master , master slide , and master
+
+page. All refer to a slide which is used to create other slides. This book uses the term
+
+slide master, except when describing the user interface.
+
+A slide master has a defined set of characteristics, including the background color, graphic, or
+
+gradient; objects (such as logos, decorative lines, and other graphics) in the background; headers
+
+and footers; placement and size of text frames; and the formatting of text.
+
+All of the characteristics of slide masters are controlled by styles . The styles of any new slide you
+
+create are inherited from the slide master from which it was created. In other words, the styles of
+
+the slide master are available and applied to all slides created from that slide master. Changing a
+
+style in a slide master results in changes to all the slides based on that slide master. It is, however,
+
+possible to modify each individual slide without affecting the slide master.
+
+Note
+
+Although it is highly recommended to use the slide masters whenever possible, there
+
+are occasions where manual changes are needed for a particular slide, for example
+
+to enlarge the chart area when the text and chart layout is used.
+
+Slide masters have two types of styles associated with them: presentation styles and image styles .
+
+The prepackaged presentation styles can be modified, but new presentation styles cannot be
+
+created. For image styles, you can modify the prepackaged styles and also create new styles.
+
+Presentation styles are discussed in detail in Chapter 3 Adding & Formatting Text . The use of
+
+image styles is covered in Chapter 6 Formatting Graphic Objects . See also “ Working with styles in
+
+Impress ” on page 17 .
+
+> What are slide masters? 4
+
+# Working with slide masters
+
+Impress comes with a collection of slide masters. These slide masters are shown in the Master
+
+Pages section of the Sidebar ( Figure 1 ). This section has three subsections: Used in This
+
+Presentation , Recently Used , and Available for Use . Click the expand marker next to the name of a
+
+subsection to expand it and show thumbnails of the slides, or click the collapse marker to collapse
+
+the subsection to hide the thumbnails.
+
+Each of the slide masters shown in the Available for Use list is from a template of the same name.
+
+If you have created your own templates, or added templates from other sources, slide masters
+
+from those templates will also appear in this list. See “ Working with templates ” on page 17 for more
+
+information about templates.
+
+Figure 1: Sidebar Master Pages section
+
+# Creating slide masters
+
+You can creat e a new slide master which is similar to modifying the default slide master.
+
+1) Enable editing of slide masters by selecting View > Master > Slide Master on the main
+
+menu bar and the Master View toolbar opens ( Figure 2 ). If the Master View toolbar does
+
+not appear, go to View > Toolbars and select Master View .
+
+2) Alternatively, right-click on a slide master you want to use in the Master Pages section of
+
+the Sidebar that and select Edit Master from the context menu to open the Master View
+
+toolbar.
+
+3) On the Master View toolbar, click the New Master icon .
+
+4) A new slide master appears in the Slides pane. Modify this slide master to suit your
+
+requirements.
+
+> Working with slide masters 5
+
+Figure 2: Master View toolbar
+
+5) It is recommended that you rename this new slide master. Right-click on the slide in the
+
+Slides pane and select Rename master from the context menu.
+
+6) When finished creating a slide master, click Close Master View on the Master View toolbar
+
+and return to normal slide editing mode.
+
+# Applying a slide master
+
+To apply a slide master to all the slides in your presentation:
+
+1) In the Sidebar, click on the Master Pages icon to open the Master Pages section
+
+(Figure 1 ).
+
+2) To apply one of the slide masters to all slides in your presentation, right-click on the slide
+
+master you want to use and select Apply to All Slides on the context menu.
+
+To apply a different slide master to one or m ore selected slides:
+
+1) In the Sidebar, click on the Master Pages icon to open the Master Pages section
+
+(Figure 1 ).
+
+2) In the Slide Pane, select the slide or slides where you want to use a new slide master.
+
+3) In the Sidebar, right-click on the slide master you want to apply to the selected slides and
+
+select Apply to Selected Slides on the context menu.
+
+# Loading additional slide masters
+
+Sometimes, in the same set of slides, you may need to mix multiple slide masters that may belong
+
+to different templates (the use of templates is explained in “ Working with templates ” on page 17 ).
+
+For example, you may need a completely different layout for the first slide of the presentation, or
+
+you may want to add a slide from a different presentation to your current presentation.
+
+1) Go to Format > Slide Design on the main menu bar or right-click on a slide in the Slides
+
+Pane and select Slide Design from the context menu to open the Slide Design dialog
+
+(Figure 3 ). This dialog shows the slide masters already available for use.
+
+2) To add more slide masters, click Load to open the Load Slide Design dialog ( Figure 4 ).
+
+3) Select in the Load Slide Design dialog the template from which to load the slide master and
+
+click OK.
+
+4) Click OK again to close the Slide Design dialog.
+
+5) The slide masters in the template you selected are now shown in the Available for use
+
+subsection of Master Pages.
+
+The slide masters you have loaded will also be available the next time you load the
+
+presentation. If you want to delete the unused slide masters, click the corresponding
+
+checkbox in the Slide Design dialog. If the slide master was not used in the
+
+presentation, it is removed from the list of available slide masters.
+
+> Working with slide masters 6
+
+Figure 3: Slide Design dialog
+
+Figure 4: Load Slide Design dialog
+
+Tip To limit the size of the presentation file, you may want to minimize the number of
+
+slide masters used.
+
+# Modifying slide masters
+
+The following items can be changed on a slide master:
+
+• Background (color, gradient, hatching, or bitmap)
+
+• Background objects (for example, adding a logo or decorative graphics)
+
+• Text attributes for the main text area and notes
+
+• Size, placement, and contents of header and footer elements to appear on every slide
+
+• Size and placement of default frames for slide titles and content
+
+To select the slide master for modification:
+
+1) Select View > Master > Slide Master from the main menu bar. This opens the master view
+
+and unlocks the properties of a slide master.
+
+2) Select a slide master you want to modify in the Slide Pane
+
+> Working with slide masters 7
+
+Figure 5: Example master view
+
+3) Right-click in the Workspace on your selected slide master that you want to modify so you
+
+can edit the slide master ( Figure 5 ).
+
+4) Select an object on the slide master, then right-click on the object and make any necessary
+
+changes using the options available in the context menu that opens. Selecting one of the
+
+options in the context menu may open a dialog where you can make the necessary
+
+changes to your selected object.
+
+5) Click Close Master View on the Master View toolbar or go to View > Normal on the main
+
+menu bar to exit from editing slide masters.
+
+6) Save your presentation file before continuing.
+
+> Any changes made to one slide when in Master View mode will appear on all slides
+> using this slide master. Always make sure you close Master View and return to
+> Normal view before working on any of the presentation slides.
+
+The changes made to one of the slides in Normal view (for example, changes to the bullet point
+
+style, the color of the title area, and so on) will not be overridden by subsequent changes to the
+
+slide master. There are cases, however, where it is desirable to revert a manually modified object
+
+of the slide to the style defined in the slide master: to do that, select that object and choose Format
+
+> Default Formatting from the main menu bar, or right-click on an object and select Default from
+
+the context menu.
+
+Sometimes, depending on the contents of the slide, you may want to apply a different layout. The
+
+title and text boxes will inherit the properties of the slide master, but if you have changed the
+
+position of these text boxes in the slide master, the layout may appear corrupted and you may
+
+need to re-position some of the layout elements manually.
+
+# Selecting and applying backgrounds
+
+Backgrounds can be applied to a number of elements in Impress: a slide, a default text area, an
+
+image and so on. The procedures to apply a background are always the same and the following
+
+procedure is used to apply a background to the slide.
+
+1) Select Format > Page on the main menu bar, or right-click on the slide and select Slide
+
+>Page Setup from the context menu to open the Page Setup dialog.
+
+> Working with slide masters 8
+
+Figure 6: Background types in Page Setup dialog
+
+Figure 7: Presentation Styles
+
+2) Select the Background tab and then type of Fill from the drop down list ( Figure 8 ). The
+
+options available for backgrounds will depend on the fill type selected.
+
+3) Alternatively, select Format > Styles and Formatting from the main menu bar, or press
+
+F11 , or click the Styles and Formatting icon on the Line and Filling toolbar to open the
+
+Styles and Formatting dialog ( Figure 7 ). Alternatively, click on the Styles and Formatting
+
+icon on the Sidebar to open the Styles and Formatting section.
+
+4) Select the Presentation Styles icon and right-click Background style and select Modify
+
+from the context menu. This opens the Background dialog, which has one tab ( Area ) and
+
+offers the same options as the Background tab in the Page Setup dialog.
+
+5) Select the type of fill you want for your background from the five options in the drop-down
+
+menu: None , Color , Gradient , Hatching , or Bitmap . A list of options for the selected fill type
+
+then appears. Figure 8 shows the options available if you select a bitmap for your
+
+background.
+
+6) Select one of the options on the Fill list and click OK . The option you have selected is
+
+added to the slide master, replacing any previously selected fill.
+
+Tip
+
+> You can make custom additions to each type of background, with the obvious
+> exception of None . After you create new fills, they are listed in the Background dialog
+> along with the fills provided with LibreOffice, see Chapter 6 Formatting Graphic
+> Objects for more information.
+> Working with slide masters 9

+
+# Adding image objects
+
+When you want the same image to appear on every slide of your presentation, the easiest and
+
+quickest solution is to use the slide master. It saves time while creating the presentation and when
+
+you want to modify or reposition the image on all the slides. If the same image is added to each
+
+slide manually, these operations have to be performed on each individual slide in the presentation.
+
+LibreOffice supports a large number of image formats.
+
+For example, one of the most common actions in preparing a presentation is to add an image to
+
+the slide master. To insert an image already available on the computer, follow these steps:
+
+1) Select View > Master > Slide Master on the main menu bar to open the master view.
+
+2) Select the slide master where you want to add an image.
+
+3) Select Insert > Image > From File on the main menu bar to open the file browser.
+
+4) Navigate to the directory where your image is located and select it. If you want to see a
+
+preview, select the Preview checkbox in the file browser dialog.
+
+5) Click Open and the image is placed into your slide.
+
+Once the image is inserted onto your slide, you have to move it to the background so that any
+
+information you add to the slide when creating a presentation appears over the background image.
+
+1) With the image selected, right-click on the image and select Arrange > Send to Back from
+
+the context menu.
+
+2) If necessary, reposition the image and modify its size. See Chapter 4 Adding and
+
+Formatting Images for more information.
+
+In addition to images you can add a number of other objects in the background, for example
+
+decorative lines, text, and shapes.
+
+> Working with slide masters 10
+
+LibreOffice offers the option to insert an image as a link to the file rather than
+
+embedding it in your presentation. This can be useful when a presentation is not
+
+intended for distribution onto other computers, but where it will remain in the same
+
+computer and directory structure. For example, it could be created on a notebook
+
+computer, which is to be used to give the presentation to a group of clients.
+
+However, if the presentation file is to be distributed onto other computers, the image
+
+must be embedded to avoid the “missing image” syndrome when the presentation is
+
+given using a different computer.
+
+Tip
+
+If you want the image to blend with the background, you can set the background color
+
+of the image as transparent. Select the image, then go to Tools > Color Replacer on
+
+the main menu bar. Select the first checkbox, move the mouse cursor onto the picture
+
+and click on the color you want to make transparent. This color appears next to the
+
+checkbox. Make sure that Replace with... is set to Transparent and click Replace .
+
+An easy way to make the image lighter so that the text stands out better against its
+
+background, is to increase the transparency of the image or change the gamma
+
+luminance of the image. Both these adjustments can be quickly made from the Picture
+
+toolbar.
+
+# Slide master styles
+
+Within the slide master you can define a complete set of styles for the default appearance of text
+
+and images inserted in slides based on that background. If for example your slide master has a
+
+dark background, you may want to set the font color of the title and text areas to be light. Rather
+
+than manually changing the font color for every new slide you create, a time-consuming operation
+
+prone to errors and omissions, simply modify the style in the slide master. Changes made to styles
+
+in the slide master only apply to the slides based on that particular slide master.
+
+Styles in Impress are sub-divided into two main categories: presentation styles and image styles .
+
+Figure 9: Image styles
+
+To work on the slide master styles, press F11, or select Format > Styles and Formatting from the
+
+main menu, or click the Styles and Formatting icon on the Line and Filling toolbar to open the
+
+Styles and Formatting dialog ( Figure 7 on page 9 for Presentation styles and Figure 9 for Image
+
+> Working with slide masters 11
+
+styles). Alternatively, click on the Styles and Formatting icon on the Sidebar to open the Styles
+
+and Formatting section.
+
+Presentation styles
+
+Presentation styles ( Figure 7 ) affect three elements of a slide master: the background, background
+
+objects (such as icons, decorative lines, and text frames), and the text placed on the slide. Text
+
+styles are further divided into Notes , Outline 1 through Outline 9 , Subtitle , and Title . The outline
+
+styles are used for the different levels of the outline to which they belong. For example, Outline 2 is
+
+used for the sub-points of Outline 1, and Outline 3 is used for the sub-points of Outline 2.
+
+The presentation styles can be modified, but new presentation styles cannot be created.
+
+Image styles
+
+Image styles ( Figure 9 ) apply to lines, shapes and text boxes created using the Impress drawing
+
+tools and define the formatting of such objects. You can create additional styles or modify the
+
+included styles.
+
+> The presence of text and title styles both in the Presentation and Image styles may
+> seem confusing. This apparent duplication is because Impress uses special text
+> boxes when adding structured text to slides where Presentation styles apply
+> (AutoLayout boxes). The title and other text styles in Image styles continue to apply to
+> other text boxes you may want to add, or to text associated with shapes or lines.
+
+> At the bottom of the Styles and Formatting dialog is a drop-down list where you can
+> choose to show either Hierarchical ,All Styles ,Hidden Styles ,Applied Styles or
+> Custom Styles .
+
+# Modifying default text areas
+
+When a slide master is opened for editing, it contains five areas, as shown in Figure 5 on page 8.
+
+• Title area for AutoLayouts
+
+• Object area for AutoLayouts
+
+• Date area
+
+• Footer area
+
+• Slide number area
+
+Position and size
+
+Click with the left mouse button on any of these areas to display the selection handles around the
+
+rectangle. Use these handles to modify the size and position of the area.
+
+• To change the position, move the mouse towards one of the edges, not on a selection
+
+handle, and click the left mouse button. The cursor changes shape which is dependent on
+
+your computer setup (normally a clenched hand).
+
+• To modify the shape and size of one of the rectangular areas, use one of the selection
+
+handles. The corner handles modify the height and width of the rectangle simultaneously
+
+while the side handles modify only one dimension at a time. The shape of the mouse cursor
+
+usually changes shape when over a handle, giving a clear visual indication of how it will
+
+affect the shape of the rectangular area.
+
+> Working with slide masters 12
+
+> To keep the shape of the rectangular area constant, move the mouse to one of the
+> four corner handles and keep the Shift key pressed while dragging the handle with
+> the mouse. The rectangle maintains the ratio between the width and height
+> dimensions of the rectangle.
+
+To accurately control the shape and size as well as the position of the default text area, it is better
+
+to use the Position and Size dialog than the mouse.
+
+1) Select the rectangular area by clicking on the border.
+
+2) Press F4, or go to Format > Position and Size on the main menu bar, or right-click on the
+
+border and select Position and Size from the context menu to open t he Position and Size
+
+dialog ( Figure 10 ).
+
+3) Alternatively, click on the Properties icon on the Sidebar and open the Position and
+
+Size subsection.
+
+Note Clicking on the More Options icon on the Position and Size subsection on the
+
+> Sidebar will open the Position and Size dialog.
+
+Figure 10 : Position and Size dialog
+
+The functions of the Position and Size dialog are explained in the Draw Guide , so only short
+
+descriptions of the most important fields are provided in this chapter.
+
+• Use the Position section to specify the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) position of the
+
+rectangular area. The values represent the distance of the selected base point and the
+
+default position is the top left corner of the slide.
+
+• Use the Size section to specify the width and height of the rectangular area. In the Base
+
+point section, select a point on the rectangular area that you do not want to move while
+
+resizing. The default setting of top left corner means that the position of the top left corner
+
+of the area will not change after resizing.
+
+> Working with slide masters 13
+
+• Use the Rotation page of the dialog to rotate the default text area. For example, you can
+
+place the footer area on the side by rotating each text area by 90 degrees and obtain a
+
+more modern-looking layout. In general it is preferable to use only right angles for ease of
+
+editing, although the program does not impose restrictions on the values that can be used.
+
+Background, border, arrangement and alignment
+
+Besides the shape, size and position, it is also possible to modify other aspects of the editable
+
+areas on the slide master, such as the background, border, alignment relative to the slide, and
+
+position relative to other objects.
+
+• To edit the background of an object, go to Format > Area on the main menu bar, or right-
+
+click on the object and select Area from the context menu. This opens the Area dialog
+
+where you can change the type of fill used for object backgrounds. Alternatively, click on
+
+the Properties icon on the Sidebar and open the Area subsection. See Chapter 6
+
+Formatting Graphic Objects for more information.
+
+• To edit the borders of an object, go to Format > Line on the main menu bar, or right-click
+
+on the object and select Line from the context menu. This opens the Line dialog where you
+
+can change the type and color of the line used for object borders. Alternatively, click on the
+
+Properties icon on the Sidebar and open the Line subsection. See Chapter 6
+
+Formatting Graphic Objects for more information.
+
+• To change the alignment of an object on a slide or the alignment between two or more
+
+objects, right-click on the object and select Alignment then the type of alignment from the
+
+context menu, or click on the small triangle to the right of the Alignment icon on the
+
+Line and Filling toolbar and select the type of alignment from the options available. See
+
+Chapter 5 Managing Graphic Objects for more information.
+
+• To arrange the position of an object on a slide in relation to other objects on a slide, right-
+
+click on the object and select Arrange then the object position from the context menu, or
+
+click on the small triangle to the right of the Arrange icon on the Line and Filling
+
+toolbar and select the object position from the options available. See Chapter 5 Managing
+
+Graphic Objects for more information.
+
+# Adding text and fields to all slides
+
+Adding text and fields to a master slide allows you to place information that you want to appear on
+
+all the slides in your presentation, for example presentation title, company, date and slide number.
+
+Text
+
+Text objects can be placed anywhere on the master page so that it appears on every slide in your
+
+presentation. Text objects can also be placed in the footer if you do not want to use the footer
+
+default fields in your presentation.
+
+1) Select View > Master > Slide Master from the main menu bar to open Master View.
+
+2) To add text to the main area of the slide, select the Text icon on the Drawing toolbar, or
+
+press the F2 key.
+
+3) Click once in the master page and drag to draw a text object, then type or paste your text
+
+into the text object.
+
+4) To add text to the slide footer, click in one of the footer areas of the slide and highlight the
+
+text field, then type of paste your text into the footer area.
+
+> Working with slide masters 14
+
+5) To format the text after placing it on your master page, see Chapter 3 Adding and
+
+Formatting Text for more information.
+
+6) Click Close Master View on the Master View toolbar or go to View > Normal on the main
+
+menu bar when you are finished.
+
+Footer default fields
+
+By default, the footer used in an Impress slide consists of three sections with each section
+
+containing a default field as follows:
+
+• Left section – date and time. The field name is <date> .
+
+• Center section – footer text, for example this could be the presentation title, file name and
+
+so on. The field name is <text> .
+
+• Right section – slide (page) number. The field name is <number> .
+
+Figure 11 : Date and Time dialog
+
+The default footer fields are set up as follows:
+
+1) Select View > Master > Slide Master from the main menu bar to open Master View.
+
+2) Go to Insert > Page Number or Date and Time to open the Date and Time dialog ( Figure
+
+11 ) and make sure the Slides tab is selected.
+
+3) For a fixed Date and time in the left section of the footer, select Fixed and enter the date
+
+you want to use in the text box.
+
+4) For a variable Date and time in the left section of the footer , select Variable , then select
+
+the Format and Language from the drop down lists that you want to use. Using a variable
+
+date and time means that each time the file is opened, the date and time are updated.
+
+5) To place text in the center section of the footer, select Footer and then type or paste your
+
+text into the Footer text box.
+
+6) To place the slide number in the right section section of the footer, select Slide number .
+
+7) If you do not want the footer to appear on the first slide of your presentation, then select Do
+
+not show on the first slide . The first slide is normally the title slide of your presentation.
+
+8) Click Apply to All to close the dialog.

+> default text areas ” on page 12 for more information.
+
+Manual fields
+
+Manual fields, for example date or page number (slide number), can be added as text objects on a
+
+slide master or replace one of the default footer fields. The fields you can use in Impress are:
+
+• Date (fixed)
+
+• Date (variable): updates automatically when you reload the file
+
+• Time (fixed)
+
+• Time (variable): updates automatically when you reload the file

+• Author: first and last names listed in the LibreOffice user data
+
+• Page number (slide number)
+
+• File name
+
+To place a field on your slide master:
+
+2) Click anywhere on the slide master.
+
+3) Go to Insert > Fields on the main menu bar and select the required field from the
+
+submenu.
+
+4) By default the field is placed in the center of the slide master. Reposition the field text box
+
+to the desired position on your slide master.

+# Working with styles in Impress
+
+If you are familiar with styles in Writer, you will find both similarities and differences in Impress. The
+
+presentation styles are comparable to paragraph styles in Writer and are used in a similar fashion.
+
+You cannot create new presentation styles but you can fully configure the existing ones. Note that,
+
+as with the Heading styles in Writer, the Outline styles are hierarchically linked, so that a change in
+
+the Outline 1 will cascade through all the other Outline levels.
+
+In Impress you will also find the image styles very useful. They define the characteristics of graphic
+
+objects (including text objects). For example, if you need to create an organization chart diagram in
+
+one of the slides of your presentation, you will probably want all of the objects to have a consistent
+
+appearance, such as line style, font type, shadow, and so on. The easiest way to achieve this
+
+result with the minimum effort is to create an image style for the objects and apply it to each object.
+
+The major benefit is that if you decide to change, say, the background color of objects, all you need
+
+to do is modify the style rather than each individual object.
+
+Presentation styles are discussed in more detail in Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text and
+
+image styles are discussed in detail in Chapter 6 Formatting Graphic Objects . More information on
+
+styles can also be found in the Getting Started Guide Chapter 3 Using Styles and Templates .
+
+# Working with templates
+
+A template is a special type of document that you use as a basis to create other documents from.
+
+For example, you can create a template for business presentations so that any new presentations
+
+has your company logo and name on the first slide and the remaining slides in your presentation
+
+only show the company name.
+
+Templates can contain anything that regular documents can contain, such as text, graphics, a set
+
+of styles, and user-specific setup information such as measurement units, language, the default
+
+printer, and toolbar and menu customization.
+
+All documents created using LibreOffice are based on templates. You can create a specific
+
+template for any document type (text, spreadsheet, drawing, presentation). If you do not specify a
+
+template when you start a new document, then the document is based on the default template for
+
+that type of document. If you have not specified a default template, LibreOffice uses the blank
+
+template for that type of document that is installed with LibreOffice . This default template can be
+
+changed, see “ Setting default template ” on page 19 for more information.
+
+However, Impress is a little different from other LibreOffice components, in that it starts with the
+
+Presentation Wizard, unless you have decided to turn off this wizard. When you choose File >
+
+New > Presentation from the menu bar and, if the wizard is active, it opens offering several
+
+choices for a new presentation, one of which is From template .
+
+If you have turned off the Presentation Wizard, when you start a new presentation by choosing File
+
+> New > Presentation from the menu bar, LibreOffice uses the default presentation template. If
+
+you have not defined your own default template, LibreOffice uses the blank template supplied with
+
+Impress.
+
+Any slide masters created from a template created by yourself or created from imported templates
+
+will appear in Available for Use in the Master Pages section of the Sidebar.
+
+For more information on templates, see the Getting Started Guide Chapter 3 Using Styles and
+
+Templates .
+
+> Working with templates 17
+
+# Templates supplied with LibreOffice
+
+Impress comes with a set of predefined templates and these are located in the Presentation
+
+backgrounds folder. These templates only contain backgrounds and background objects providing
+
+you with a starting point to create your own templates. Any templates that you create from this
+
+default set will be located in the My Templates folder after you have saved your presentation as a
+
+template. Create a new presentation from a presentation template as follows:
+
+1) Click on Templates in LibreOffice start up window or go to File > New > Templates on the
+
+main menu bar to open the Template Manager dialog ( Figure 12 ).
+
+2) Click on the Presentations tab to open the page containing all the templates for use in
+
+Impress.
+
+3) Navigate to the folder that contains the selection of presentation templates you want to use.
+
+4) Select the template you want to use.
+
+5) Click on the Open icon on the Template Manager toolbar or double-click on the
+
+template and a new presentation will be created using the selected template.
+
+Figure 12 : Template Manager dialog for presentations
+
+# Templates from other sources
+
+You can download templates for LibreOffice from many sources, including the official template
+
+repository at , and install them on your computer. On other websites
+
+you may find collections of templates that have been created using open document format ( .OTP
+
+file extension) that Impress uses as its default format. These templates from other sources are
+
+installed using the Extension Manager, as described in “ Importing template collections ” on page
+
+23 .
+
+Some of these templates are free of charge; others are available for a fee. Check the descriptions
+
+to see what licenses and fees apply to the ones that interest you. To import individual templates,
+
+see “ Importing templates ” on page 22 for more information and to import a template collection, see
+
+“Importing template collections ” on page 23 for more information.
+
+> Working with templates 18
+
+# Creating your own templates
+
+To create a template from a presentation and save it t o My Templates folder or a folder of your own
+
+choosing :
+
+1) Open the presentation that you want to use for a template, or open a template that you
+
+want to use as a basis for your template.
+
+2) Add any extra content and styles to your presentation.
+
+3) Go to File > Templates > Save As Template on the main menu bar to open the Template
+
+Manager dialog (Figure 13 ).
+
+4) Open the My Templates or your own template folder as your destination folder to activate
+
+the Save icon , then click the Save icon.
+
+5) Type a name for the new template in the Enter template name text box.
+
+6) Click OK to save the new template in the destination folder.
+
+7) Close the Template Manager dialog.
+
+8) To use the template for a new presentation, follow the procedure in “ Templates supplied
+
+with LibreOffice ” on page 18 and select your newly created template.
+
+Figure 13 : Saving a new template in the Template Manager dialog
+
+# Setting default template
+
+If you create a presentation by using File > New > Presentation on the main menu bar and do not
+
+select a template, LibreOffice creates the presentation from the default Impress template, which is
+
+normally a blank template. However, you can set any presentation template to be the default
+
+template, even a template that you have created, so long as it is located in a folder displayed in the
+
+Template Manager dialog. You can always reset to the default template back to the blank template
+
+later if you choose.
+
+Setting a custom template as default
+
+To set a template that you have created or imported as default instead of using the Impress default
+
+template:
+
+1) Click on Templates in LibreOffice start up window or go to File > New > Templates to
+
+open the Template Manager dialog and select the Presentations tab ( Figure 12 on page
+
+18 ).
+
+2) Double-click on the My Templates folder or the folder that contains the template you want
+
+to use to open the folder.
+
+3) Select the template you want to use as the default template.
+
+> Working with templates 19
+
+4) Click the Set as default icon and your selected template becomes the default
+
+template. The next time that you create a new presentation using Impress, the presentation
+
+will be created from the default Impress template.
+
+> By default, the Presentation Wizard will have From template selected if the default
+> template has been changed. If you select Empty presentation in the Presentation
+> Wizard and then click Create , an empty presentation will be created and the default
+> template will not be used.
+
+Resetting default template
+
+To reset the default template for a new presentation to use the Impress default template:
+
+1) Click on Templates in LibreOffice start up window or go to File > New > Templates to
+
+open the Template Manager dialog.
+
+2) Select the Action Menu icon and choose Reset Default Template from the drop-
+
+down menu ( Figure 14 ). This command does not appear unless the default template has
+
+been previously changed to a template of your choosing.
+
+3) Select Presentation from the drop down list to reset the default template. If other modules
+
+in LibreOffice have had their default template changed, then these modules will also appear
+
+in this drop down list.
+
+4) The next time that you create a new presentation using Impress, the presentation will be
+
+created from the default Impress template.
+
+Figure 14 : Resetting the default template
+
+# Editing a template
+
+You can edit template styles and content, and then, if you wish, you can reapply the template
+
+styles to presentations that were created from that template.
+
+Note You can only reapply styles. You cannot reapply content.
+
+Editing

+
+> Working with templates 20
+
+2) Navigate to the folder where the template you want to edit is located and click once on it to
+
+activate the file handling controls.
+
+3) Select the Edit icon and the template opens in Impress. Edit the template just as you
+
+would any other presentation.
+
+4) To save your changes, go to File > Save on the main menu bar.
+
+Updating a document from a changed template
+
+The next time that you open a presentation that was created from the changed template, the
+
+following message appears ( Figure 15 ).
+
+Click Update Styles to update any styles in the template that have been changed in the document.
+
+Click Keep Old Styles if you do not want to update any styles in the template that have been
+
+changed in the document. Whichever option you choose, the message box closes and the
+
+presentation opens in Impress.
+
+Figure 15 . Update styles message
+
+> If you select Keep Old Styles in the message box shown in Figure 15 , then this
+> message will not appear again the next time you open the document after changing
+> the template it is based on. You will not get another chance to update the styles from
+> the template.
+
+# Organizing templates
+
+LibreOffice can only use templates that are in LibreOffice template folders. You can create new
+
+LibreOffice template folders and use them to organize your templates. For example, separate
+
+template folders for different projects or clients. You can also import and export templates.
+
+> The location of LibreOffice template folders varies with your computer operating
+> system. To learn where the template folders are stored on your computer, go to
+> Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Paths .

+
+# What is Impress?
+
+Impress is the presentation (slide show) program included in LibreOffice. You can create slides that
+
+contain many different elements, including text, bulleted and numbered lists, tables, charts, and a
+
+wide range of graphic objects such as clipart, drawings, and photographs. Impress also includes a
+
+spelling checker, a thesaurus, text styles, and background styles.
+
+This chapter includes instructions, screenshots, and hints to guide you through the Impress
+
+environment while designing your presentations. Although more difficult designs are mentioned in
+
+this chapter, explanations for creating them are in the Impress Guide . If you have a working
+
+knowledge of how to create slide shows, we recommend you use the Impress Guide for your
+
+source of information.
+
+To use Impress for more than very simple slide shows requires some knowledge of the elements
+
+which the slides contain. Slides that contain text use styles to determine the appearance of that
+
+text. Creating drawings in Impress is similar to the Draw program included in LibreOffice. For this
+
+reason, we recommend that you also see Chapter 3 Using Styles and Templates and Chapter 7
+
+Getting Started with Draw in this guide. You may also wish to consult the Draw Guide for more
+
+details on how to use the drawing tools.
+
+# Starting Impress
+
+You can start Impress in several ways, as described in Chapter 1 Introducing LibreOffice .
+
+When you start Impress for the first time, the Presentation Wizard may be shown. See “ Creating a
+
+new presentation using the Presentation Wizard ” on page 13 . Otherwise, the main Impress window
+
+is displayed.
+
+You can turn the Presentation Wizard on and off in Tools > Options > LibreOffice Impress >
+
+General > New document by selecting or deselecting the Start with wizard option.
+
+# Main Impress window
+
+The main Impress window (Figure 1) has three parts: the Slides pane , Workspace , and Sidebar .
+
+Additionally, several toolbars can be displayed or hidden during the creation of a presentation.
+
+## Tip
+
+You can close the Slides pane or the Sidebar by clicking the X in the upper right corner
+
+of each pane or go to View > Slide Pane or View > Sidebar on the Menu bar to
+
+deselect the pane. To reopen a pane, go to View on the Menu bar and select Slide
+
+Pane or Sidebar again.
+
+You can also maximize the Workspace area by clicking on the Hide/Show marker in
+
+the middle of the vertical separator line (highlighted in Figure 1). Using the Hide/Show
+
+marker hides, but does not close, the Slide pane or Sidebar. To restore a pane, click
+
+again on its Hide/Show marker.
+
+# Workspace
+
+The Workspace (normally in the center of the main window) opens in the Normal view. It has five
+
+tabs: Normal , Outline , Notes , Handout , and Slide Sorter . These five tabs are called View
+
+buttons. Since LibreOffice 5.1, the View buttons are not shown by default; but they can be
+
+activated by choosing View > Modes Tab Bar from the menu bar.
+
+The Workspace below the View buttons changes with the chosen view. The workspace views are
+
+described in “ Workspace views ” on page 9.
+
+> Main Impress window |5
+
+Figure 1: Main window of Impress; ovals indicate the Hide/Show markers. The View Tab Bar is
+
+visible in this image.
+
+# Slides pane
+
+The Slides pane contains thumbnail pictures of the slides in your presentation in the order in which
+
+they will be shown, unless you change the slide show order. Clicking a slide in this pane selects it
+
+and places it in the Workspace . When a slide is in the Workspace, you can make changes to it.
+
+Several additional operations can be performed on one or more slides simultaneously in the Slides
+
+pane:
+
+• Add new slides to the presentation.
+
+• Mark a slide as hidden so that it will not be shown as part of the presentation.
+
+• Delete a slide from the presentation if it is no longer needed.
+
+• Rename a slide.
+
+• Duplicate a slide (copy and paste).
+
+• Move a slide to another place in the slide stack by dragging and dropping it to the desired
+
+position. If the position is not visible in the slide pane, the slide stack will scroll up or down
+
+accordingly.
+
+It is also possible to perform the following operations, although there are more efficient methods
+
+than using the Slides pane:
+
+• Change the slide transition following the selected slide or after each slide in a group.
+
+• Change the slide design.
+
+• Change slide layout for a group of slides simultaneously.
+
+> 6|Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+# Sidebar
+
+The Sidebar has seven sections. To expand a section you want to use, click on its icon or click on
+
+the small triangle at the top of the icons and select a section from the drop down list. Only one
+
+section at a time can be open.
+
+Properties
+
+Shows the layouts included within Impress. You can choose the one you want and use it as it
+
+is, or modify it to meet your own requirements. However, it is not possible to save customized
+
+layouts.
+
+Master Pages
+
+Here you define the page (slide) style for your presentation. Impress includes several
+
+designs for Master Pages (slide masters). One of them – Default – is blank, and the rest
+
+have background and styled text.
+
+## Tip
+
+Go to Format > Styles > Styles and Formatting on the Menu bar or press the F11
+
+key to open the Styles and Formatting dialog, where you can modify the styles used in
+
+any master page to suit your purpose. This can be done at any time.
+
+Custom Animation
+
+A variety of animations can be used to emphasize or enhance different elements of each
+
+slide. The Custom Animation section provides an easy way to add, change, or remove
+
+animations.
+
+Slide Transition
+
+Provides a number of slide transition options. The default is set to No Transition , in which the
+
+following slide simply replaces the existing one. However, many additional transitions are
+
+available. You can also specify the transition speed (slow, medium, fast), choose between an
+
+automatic or manual transition, and choose how long the selected slide should be shown
+
+(automatic transition only).
+
+Styles and Formatting
+
+Here you can edit and apply graphics styles and create new ones, but you can only edit
+
+existing presentation styles. When you edit a style, the changes are automatically applied to
+
+all of the elements formatted with this style in your presentation. If you want to ensure that
+
+the styles on a specific slide are not updated, create a new master page for the slide.
+
+Gallery
+
+Opens the Impress gallery from which you can insert an object into your presentation either
+
+as a copy or as a link. A copy of an object is independent of the original object, so changes to
+
+the object have no effect on the copy. A link remains dependent on the original object and
+
+changes to the object are reflected in the link.
+
+Navigator
+
+Opens the Impress navigator, in which you can quickly move to another slide or select an
+
+object on a slide. It is recommended to give slides and objects in your presentation
+
+meaningful names so that you can easily identify them when using the navigator.
+
+> Main Impress window |7
+
+# Toolbars
+
+Many toolbars can be used during slide creation. They can be displayed or hidden by going to
+
+View > Toolbars on the Menu bar and selecting from the context menu.
+
+You can also select the icons that you wish to appear on each toolbar. For more information, refer
+
+to Chapter 1, Introducing LibreOffice.
+
+Many of the toolbars in Impress are similar to the toolbars in Draw. Refer to the Draw Guide for
+
+details on the functions available and how to use them.
+
+# Status bar
+
+The Status bar (Figure 2), located at the bottom of the Impress window, contains information that
+
+you may find useful when working on a presentation. For details on the contents and use of these
+
+fields, see Chapter 1 Introducing LibreOffice in this guide and the Impress Guide Chapter 1
+
+Introducing Impress .
+
+Figure 2: Status bar
+
+## Note
+
+The sizes are given in the current measurement unit (not to be confused with the ruler
+
+units). This measurement unit is defined in Tools > Options > LibreOffice Impress >
+
+General .
+
+From left to right, you will find:
+
+• Information area – changes depending on the selection. For example:
+
+> Example selection Examples of information shown
+> Text area Text Edit: Paragraph x, Row y, Column z
+> Charts, spreadsheets Embedded object (OLE) “ObjectName” selected
+> Graphics Bitmap with transparency selected
+
+• Cursor position – the position of the cursor or of the top left corner of the selection
+
+measured from the top left corner of the slide, followed by the width and height of the
+
+selection or text box where the cursor is located.
+
+• Unsaved changes – a flag indicating that the file needs saving. Double-clicking on this flag
+
+opens the file save dialog.
+
+• Digital signature – a flag indicating whether the document is digitally signed. After the file
+
+has been saved, double-clicking on this flag opens the digital signatures dialog.
+
+• Slide number – the slide number currently displayed in the Workspace and the total
+
+number of slides in the presentation.
+
+• Page (slide) style – the style associated with the slide, handout, or notes page currently in
+
+the Workspace. Double-clicking on the style name opens the slide design dialog.
+
+• Zoom slider – adjusts the zoom percentage of the Workspace displayed.
+
+• Zoom percentage – indicates the zoom percentage of the Workspace displayed. Double-
+
+clicking on zoom percentage opens the zoom and layout dialog.
+
+> 8|Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+You can hide the Status Bar and its information by going to View on the Menu bar and deselecting
+
+Status Bar .
+
+# Workspace views
+
+Each of the Workspace views is designed to ease the completion of certain tasks. It is therefore
+
+useful to familiarize yourself with them in order to accomplish those tasks quickly.
+
+## Note
+
+Beginning with LibreOffice 5.1, the Workspace View tab bar is hidden by default. Turn
+
+it visible by choosing View > Modes Tab Bar .
+
+Each Workspace view displays a different set of toolbars when selected. These toolbar
+
+sets can be customized by going to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar, then check or
+
+uncheck the toolbar you want to add or remove.
+
+# Normal view
+
+Normal view is the main view for working with individual slides. Use this view to format and design
+
+and to add text, graphics, and animation effects.
+
+To place a slide in the slide design area (Normal view) (Figure 1 on page 6), click the slide
+
+thumbnail in the Slides pane or double-click it in the Navigator (see Chapter 1 Introducing
+
+LibreOffice and the Impress Guide for more information on the Navigator).
+
+# Outline view
+
+Outline view (Figure 3) contains all the slides of the presentation in their numbered sequence. It
+
+shows topic titles, bulleted lists, and numbered lists for each slide in outline format. Only the text
+
+contained in the default text boxes in each slide is shown, so if your slide includes other text boxes
+
+or drawing objects, the text in these objects is not displayed. Slide names are not included either.
+
+Figure 3: Outline view
+
+Figure 4: Outline level and movement arrows in Text Formatting toolbar
+
+Use Outline view for the following purposes:
+
+• Quickly inserting text for fast content creation or editing, when formatting and adding
+
+graphic objects is postponed until the final stages of creating the presentation.
+
+• Making changes in the text of a slide:
+
+– Adding and deleting the text in a slide as in the Normal view.
+
+> Workspace views |9
+
+– Moving the paragraphs of text in the selected slide up or down by using the up and
+
+down arrow buttons (Move Up or Move Down) on the Text Formatting toolbar
+
+(highlighted in Figure 4).
+
+– Changing the outline level for any of the paragraphs in a slide using the left and right
+
+arrow buttons (Promote or Demote) on the Text Formatting toolbar.
+
+– Moving a paragraph and changing its outline level at the same time using a combination
+
+of these four arrow buttons.
+
+• Comparing slides with your outline (if you have prepared one in advance). If you notice
+
+from your outline that another slide is needed, you can create it directly in the Outline view
+
+or you can return to the Normal view to create it.
+
+# Notes view
+
+Use the Notes view (Figure 5) to add notes to a slide. These notes are for your information and are
+
+not seen by the audience when the presentation is shown.
+
+Figure 5: Notes view
+
+1) Click the Notes tab in the Workspace.
+
+2) Select the slide to which you want to add notes: click the slide in the Slides pane, or
+
+double-click the slide name in the Navigator.
+
+3) In the text box below the slide, click on the words Click to add notes and begin typing.
+
+You can resize the Notes text box using the colored resizing handles which appear when you click
+
+on the edge of the box. You can also move the box by placing the pointer on the border, then
+
+clicking and dragging. To make changes in the text style, click on the Styles and Formatting icon
+
+on the Sidebar.
+
+# Handout view
+
+Handout view is for setting up the layout of your slide for a printed handout. Click the Handout tab
+
+in the workspace and the Layouts section opens on the Sidebar (Figure 6). Here you can choose
+
+to print 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 9 slides per page. If the Layouts section does not open, then click on the
+
+Properties icon at the side of the Sidebar.
+
+Use this view also to customize the information printed on the handout. Refer to Chapter 10,
+
+Printing, E-mailing, Exporting, and Saving Slide Shows, in the Impress Guide for instructions on
+
+printing slides, handouts, and notes.
+
+> 10 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+Go to Insert > Page Number, Insert > Fields, or Insert > Header and Footer on the Menu bar
+
+and the Header and Footer dialog opens. Click on the Notes and Handouts tab (Figure 7) and
+
+select the elements you want to appear on each handout page and their contents. More details on
+
+how to use this dialog are provided in the Impress Guide .
+
+Figure 6: Handout layouts
+
+Figure 7: Header and Footer dialog – Notes and Handouts page
+
+# Slide Sorter view
+
+Slide Sorter view (Figure 8) contains all of the slide thumbnails. Use this view to work with a group
+
+of slides or with only one slide.

+
+# Creating a new presentation using the Presentation Wizard
+
+This section describes how to start a new presentation using the Presentation Wizard.
+
+The first thing to do is decide on the purpose of the presentation and set out a plan.
+
+Although you can make changes as you go, you will save a lot of time by having an
+
+initial idea of who the audience will be, the structure, the content, and how the
+
+presentation will be delivered.
+
+When you start Impress, the Presentation Wizard may appear (Figure 10 ).
+
+1) In step 1, under Type , choose one of the options. These options are covered in the Impress
+
+Guide .
+
+– Empty presentation creates a blank presentation.
+
+– From template uses a template design already created as the basis for a new
+
+presentation. The wizard changes to show a list of available templates. Choose the
+
+template you want.
+
+– Open existing presentation continues work on a previously created presentation. The
+
+wizard changes to show a list of existing presentations. Choose the presentation you
+
+want.
+
+Figure 10 : Choosing the type of presentation
+
+2) Click Next . Figure 11 shows the Presentation Wizard step 2 as it appears if you selected
+
+Empty Presentation at step 1. If you selected From template , an example slide is shown in
+
+the Preview box.
+
+3) Choose a design under Select a slide design . The slide design section gives you two main
+
+choices: Presentation Backgrounds and Presentations . Each one has a list of choices for
+
+slide designs. If you want to use one of these other than <Original>, click it to select it.
+
+– The types of Presentation Backgrounds are shown in Figure 11 . When you select a
+
+presentation background, you will see a preview of the slide design in the Preview
+
+window.
+
+– <Original> is for a blank presentation slide design.
+
+Creating a new presentation using the Presentation Wizard | 13 Figure 11 : Selecting a slide design
+
+4) Select how the presentation will be used under Select an output medium . The majority of
+
+presentations are created for computer screen display so it is recommended to select
+
+Screen . You can change the page format at any time.
+
+The Screen page is set by default for a 4:3 display (28cm x 21cm) so it is not suitable
+
+for modern widescreen displays. Use the Widescreen option instead. You can also
+
+change the slide size and proportions at any time by switching to Normal view and
+
+selecting Slide > Page/Slide Properties .
+
+5) Click Next and step 3 of the Presentation Wizard appears (Figure 12 ).
+
+a) Choose the desired slide transition from the Effect drop-down menu.
+
+b) Select the desired speed for the transition between the different slides in the
+
+presentation from the Speed drop-down menu. Medium is a good choice for now.
+
+c) Select the presentation type. For most purposes, choose Default; you can change this
+
+later. For details on the choices under Automatic, see the Impress Guide .
+
+Figure 12 : Selecting a slide transition effect
+
+> 14 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+If you did not select a template in step 1 of the Presentation Wizard, then steps 4 and
+
+5 will not appear after step 3. Click Create and your new presentation is created.
+
+6) Click Next . In step 4 of the Presentation Wizard, you can enter information about your
+
+company and the presentation you are creating.
+
+Figure 13 : Entering information about your presentation
+
+7) Click Next . In step 5, the Presentation Wizard shows a preview of what your presentation
+
+will look like (Figure Erro: Origem da referência não encontrada ). If the preview does not
+
+appear, select Preview .
+
+Figure 14 : Presentation preview
+
+8) To create a summary of your presentation, select Create summary .
+
+9) Click Create and your new presentation is created.
+
+> Creating a new presentation using the Presentation Wizard |15
+
+You can accept the default values for both Effect and Speed unless you are skilled at
+
+creating presentations. Both of these values can be changed later while working with
+
+slide transitions and animations. These two features are explained in more detail in
+
+Chapter 9, Slide Shows, in the Impress Guide
+
+# Formatting a presentation
+
+A new presentation contains only one empty slide. In this section we will start adding new slides
+
+and preparing them for the intended contents.
+
+# Inserting slides
+
+New slide
+
+A new slide can be inserted into a presentation as follows:
+
+1) Go to Slide on the Menu bar and select New Page/Slide .
+
+– Or, right-click on a slide in the Slides Pane or Slide Sorter view and select New Slide
+
+from the context menu.
+
+– Or, right-click in an empty space in the Workspace and select Slide > New Slide from
+
+the context menu.
+
+– Or click the NewPage/Slide icon in the Presentation toolbar. You can also select
+
+the desired layout of the new slide if you click on the small downward arrow of the icon.
+
+If the Presentation toolbar is not visible, go to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar and
+
+select Presentation from the list.
+
+2) A new slide is inserted after the selected slide in the presentation.
+
+Duplicate slide
+
+Sometimes, rather than starting from a new slide you may want to duplicate a slide already
+
+included in your presentation. To duplicate a slide:
+
+1) Select the slide you want to duplicate from the Slides Pane.
+
+2) Go to Slide on the Menu bar and select Duplicate Page/Slide .
+
+– Or, right-click on the slide in the Slides Pane or Slide Sorter view and select Duplicate
+
+Slide from the context menu.
+
+– Or, right-click on a slide in the Workspace and select Slide > Duplicate Slide from the
+
+context menu.
+
+– Or, click on the triangle to the right of the Slide icon in the Presentation toolbar and
+
+select Duplicate Page/Slide from the context menu. If the Presentation toolbar is not
+
+visible, go to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar and select Presentation from the list.
+
+3) A duplicate slide is inserted after the selected slide in the presentation.
+
+# Selecting slide layout
+
+When creating a presentation, the first slide is normally a title slide. You can use either a blank
+
+layout or one of the title layouts as your title slide.
+
+> 16 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+Click on the Properties icon at the side of the Sidebar to open Layouts section and display
+
+the available layouts (Figure 15 ). The layouts included in LibreOffice range from a blank slide to a
+
+slide with six contents boxes and a title.
+
+Figure 15 : Available slide layouts
+
+To create a title, if one of the title layouts has been selected, click on Click to add title and then type
+
+the title text. To add text content, depending on the slide layout selected, click on Click to add text .
+
+To adjust the formatting of the title, subtitle or content modify the presentation style; see the
+
+Impress Guide Chapter 2 Using Slide Masters, Styles, and Templates .
+
+Text and graphical elements can be readjusted at any time during the preparation of
+
+the presentation, but changing the layout of a slide that already contains some content
+
+can have an effect on the content format. Therefore, it is recommended that you pay
+
+particular attention to the layout you select to prevent any loss of content.
+
+To view the names for the included layouts, use the Tooltip feature: position the cursor
+
+on an icon in the Layout section (or on any toolbar icon) and its name will be displayed
+
+in a small rectangle.
+
+In Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General > Help , select the Extended tips option
+
+to get more detailed tooltip information.
+
+To select or change the layout of a slide, select the slide in the Slides Pane so that it appears in the
+
+Workspace and select the desired layout from the Layouts section in the Sidebar. Several layouts
+
+contain one or more content boxes. Each of these content boxes can be configured to contain text,
+
+movies, images, charts or tables.
+
+You can choose the type of content by clicking on the corresponding icon that is displayed in the
+
+middle of the content box as shown in Figure 16 . If you intend to use the content box for text, click
+
+on Click to add text .
+
+> Formatting a presentation |17
+
+Figure 16 : Selecting content type
+
+# Modifying slide elements
+
+A slide contains elements that were included in the slide master, as well as those elements
+
+included in the selected slide layout. However, it is unlikely that the predefined layouts will suit all
+
+your needs for your presentation. You may want to remove elements that are not required or insert
+
+objects such as text and graphics.
+
+Although Impress does not allow you to create new layouts, you can resize and move the layout
+
+elements. It is also possible to add elements without being limited to the size and position of the
+
+layout boxes.
+
+To resize a contents box, click on the outer frame so that the resizing handles are displayed. To
+
+move it, place the mouse cursor on the frame so that the cursor changes shape. You can now click
+
+and drag the contents box to a new position on the slide.
+
+To remove any unwanted element:
+
+1) Click the element to highlight it. The resizing handles show that it is selected.
+
+2) Press the Delete key to remove it.
+
+Changes to any of the layouts included in Impress can only be made using View >
+
+Normal , which is the default. Attempting any changes by modifying a slide master,
+
+although possible, may result in unpredictable results and requires extra care as well
+
+as a certain amount of trial and error.
+
+# Adding text
+
+To add text to a slide that contains a text frame, click on Click to add text in the text frame and then
+
+type your text. The Outline styles are automatically applied to the text as you insert it. You can
+
+change the outline level of each paragraph as well as its position within the text by using the arrow
+
+buttons on the Text Formatting toolbar (see Figure 4 and “ Outline view ” on page 9) or using the Tab
+
+key while positioning the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph. For more information on text,
+
+see “ Adding and formatting text ” on page 20 .
+
+> 18 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+# Adding objects
+
+To add any objects to a slide, for example a picture, clipart, drawing, photograph, or spreadsheet,
+
+click on Insert then select from the drop down menu what type of object you want to insert. For
+
+more information, see “ Adding pictures, tables, charts, and media ” on page 25 .
+
+# Modifying the appearance of all slides
+
+To change the background and other characteristics of all slides in the presentation, you need to
+
+modify the master page or choose a different master page as explained in “ Working with slide
+
+masters and styles ” on page 27 .
+
+A Slide Master is a slide with a specified set of characteristics that acts as a template and is used
+
+as the starting point for creating other slides. These characteristics include slide background,
+
+objects in the background, formatting of any text used, and any background graphics.
+
+LibreOffice uses three terms for a slide that is used to create other slides: master slide ,
+
+slide master , and master page . This book uses the term slide master, except when
+
+describing the user interface.
+
+Impress has a range of slide masters and these are found in the Master Pages section of the
+
+Sidebar. You can also create and save additional slide masters or add more from other sources.
+
+See the Impress Guide Chapter 2 Using Slide Masters, Styles, and Templates for more information
+
+on creating and modifying slide masters.
+
+If all you need to do is to change the background, you can use a shortcut:
+
+1) Select Slide > Page/Slide Properties... and go to the Background tab on the Page Setup
+
+dialog that opens.
+
+2) Select the desired background between solid color, gradient, hatching, and bitmap.
+
+3) Click OK to apply it.
+
+4) A dialog opens asking if the background should be applied to all the slides. Click Yes if you
+
+want all the slides modified and Impress will automatically modify the master page for you.
+
+Inserting and correctly formatting a background is beyond the scope of this chapter,
+
+but you can find all the information you need in the Draw Guide Chapter 4 Changing
+
+Object Attributes or in the Impress Guide Chapter 6 Formatting Graphic Objects .
+
+# Modifying the slide show
+
+By default the slide show will display all the slides in the same order as they appear in the slide
+
+sorter, without any transition between slides. You need to use keyboard input or mouse interaction
+
+to move from one slide to the next.
+
+You can use Slide Show on the Menu bar to change the order of the slides, choose which ones
+
+are shown, automate moving from one slide to the next, and other settings. To change the slide
+
+transition, animate slides, add a soundtrack to the presentation, and make other enhancements,
+
+you need to use functions in the Sidebar. See the Impress Guide for details on how to use all of
+
+these features.
+
+> Formatting a presentation |19
+
+# Adding and formatting text
+
+Many of your slides are likely to contain some text. This section gives some guidelines on how to
+
+add text and change its appearance. Text used in slides is contained in text boxes . For more
+
+information on adding and formatting text, see the Impress Guide Chapter 3 Adding and
+
+Formatting Text .
+
+You can add two types of text boxes to a slide:
+
+• Choose a predefined layout from the Layouts section of the Sidebar and do not select any
+
+special content type. These text boxes are called AutoLayout text boxes.
+
+• Create a text box using the Text icon on the Standard toolbar (Figure 17 ) or the Text
+
+toolbar (Figure 18 ), or use the keyboard shortcut F2 .
+
+Figure 17 : Standard toolbar
+
+Figure 18 : Text toolbar
+
+# Using AutoLayout text boxes
+
+1) Make sure Normal view is selected.
+
+2) Click in the text box that reads Click to add text .
+
+3) Type or paste your text in the text box.
+
+# Using text boxes
+
+1) Make sure Normal view is selected.
+
+2) Click on the Text icon on the Standard or Text toolbar or use the keyboard shortcut F2 . If
+
+the Standard or Text toolbars are not visible, go to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar and
+
+select Standard or Text .
+
+3) Click and drag to draw a box for the text on the slide. Do not worry about the vertical size
+
+and position as the text box will expand if needed as you type.
+
+4) Release the mouse button when finished. The cursor appears in the text box, which is now
+
+in edit mode (a colored border shown in Figure 19 ).
+
+5) Type or paste your text in the text box.
+
+6) Click outside the text box to deselect it.
+
+You can move, resize, and delete text boxes. For more information, see the Impress Guide
+
+Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text .
+
+# Vertical text
+
+In addition to the normal text boxes where text is horizontally aligned, it is possible to insert text
+
+boxes where the text is aligned vertically. Vertical text is available only when Asian languages are
+
+enabled in Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages . Click the Vertical Text icon
+
+in the Standard toolbar or Text toolbar to create a vertical text box.
+
+> 20 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+Figure 19 : Creating and editing text boxes
+
+# Quick font resizing
+
+Impress has an Increase Font icon and a Decrease Font icon on the Text Formatting toolbar
+
+(highlighted in Figure 20 ) to increase or decrease the font size of selected text. The amount by
+
+which the font size changes depends on the standard sizes available for the font in use.
+
+Figure 20 : Quick font resizing on Text Formatting toolbar
+
+AutoLayout text boxes can automatically resize fonts to let the box contain all the text
+
+you insert. If you insert a long piece of text, the font size may shrink to fit into the box.
+
+Otherwise, the font keeps its default size.
+
+# Pasting text
+
+Text may be inserted into the text box by copying it from another document and pasting it into
+
+Impress. However, pasted text will probably not match the formatting of the surrounding text on the
+
+slide or that of the other slides in the presentation. This may be what you want on some occasions;
+
+however, in most cases you want to make sure that the presentation style is consistent and does
+
+not become a patchwork of different paragraph styles, font types, bullet points and so on. There
+
+are several ways to ensure consistency in your presentation.
+
+Pasting unformatted text
+
+It is normally good practice to paste text without formatting and apply the formatting later. To paste
+
+text without formatting:
+
+• Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+V and select Unformatted text from the Paste
+
+Special dialog that opens.
+
+• Or click on the small triangle next to the Paste icon in the Standard toolbar and select
+
+Unformatted text from the context menu.
+
+The unformatted text will be formatted with the outline or paragraph style at the cursor position in
+
+an AutoLayout text box or with the default graphic style in a normal text box.
+
+> Adding and formatting text |21
+
+Formatting pasted text
+
+When formatting pasted text, you can use the tools available on the Text Formatting toolbar (Figure
+
+21 ), or the tools available in the Character and Paragraph sections of the Properties deck in the
+
+Sidebar (Figure 22 ). If the Character and Paragraph sections do not automatically open after
+
+selecting some text, click on the Properties icon at the side of the Sidebar.
+
+Figure 21 : Text Formatting toolbar
+
+Figure 22 : Sidebar Character section
+
+If you are pasting the text into an AutoLayout text box, you need to apply the appropriate outline
+
+style to the text to give it the same look and feel as the rest of the presentation.
+
+1) Paste the text in the desired position.
+
+2) Select the text you have just pasted.
+
+3) Select Format > Default formatting on the Menu bar.
+
+4) Use the four arrow buttons on the Text Formatting toolbar (highlighted in Figure 4 on page
+
+9) to move the text to the appropriate position and give it the appropriate outline level.
+
+– Left arrow promotes a list entry by one level (for example from Outline 3 to Outline 2).
+
+You can get the same result by placing the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph and
+
+pressing the Shift + Tab keys.
+
+– Right arrow button demotes a list entry by one level. Press the Tab key to get the same
+
+result after placing the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph.
+
+– Up arrow moves a list entry up in the list order.
+
+– Down arrow moves a list entry down in the list order.
+
+5) Apply any necessary manual formatting to the text to change font attributes, tabs, and so
+
+on.
+
+If you are pasting text in a text box , you can still use styles to format the text quickly. Only one
+
+graphic style can be applied to the pasted text, as follows:
+
+1) Paste the text in the desired position.
+
+> 22 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+2) Select the text you have just pasted.
+
+3) Select the desired graphical style to format the text.
+
+4) Apply any necessary manual formatting to the text to change font attributes, tabs, and so on.
+
+# Creating bulleted and numbered lists
+
+The procedure to create a bulleted or numbered list is quite different depending on the type of text
+
+box used, although the tools to manage the list and customize the appearance are the same. In
+
+AutoLayout text boxes, the outline styles available are, by default, bulleted lists. For normal text
+
+boxes an additional step is required to create a bulleted list.
+
+AutoLayout text boxes
+
+AutoLayout text boxes included in the available layouts are already formatted as a bulleted list.
+
+Create a slide with a bulleted list as follows:
+
+1) From the Layout pane, choose a slide design that contains a text box.
+
+2) In the text box, click on Click to add text.
+
+3) Type your text and press the Enter key to start a new bulleted point.
+
+The default list type is a bulleted list. Methods for changing the appearance of a list are explained
+
+in “ Changing list appearance ” on page 24 .
+
+Press Shift+Enter to start a new line without creating a new bullet point. The new line
+
+will have the same indentation as the previous line. To switch off bullets altogether,
+
+click the Bullets On/Off icon on the Text Formatting toolbar. If the Text Formatting
+
+toolbar is not displayed, go to View > Toolbar > Text Formatting on the Menu bar.
+
+Text boxes
+
+Create a bulleted list in a text box as follows:
+
+1) Click the Text icon on the Standard toolbar and draw a text box on your slide.
+
+2) Click the Bullets On/Off icon on the Text Formatting toolbar.
+
+3) Type the text and press Enter to start a new bulleted line.
+
+The default list type is a bulleted list. Methods for changing the appearance of a list are explained
+
+in “ Changing list appearance ” on page 24 .
+
+Creating a new outline level
+
+In AutoLayout text boxes, create a new outline level as follows:
+
+1) If necessary, press Enter to begin a new list entry.
+
+2) To demote a list entry (move it to the right), press the Tab key or click the Demote (right
+
+arrow) icon on the Text Formatting toolbar or use the keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+Right .
+
+The list entry moves to the right and is indented to the next outline level.
+
+3) To promote a list entry (move it to the left), press Shift+Tab or click the Promote (left arrow)
+
+icon on the Text Formatting toolbar or use the keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+Left . The list
+
+entry moves to the left and is indented at the next higher level.
+
+4) To create a new list entry at the same level as the previous one, press Enter again.
+
+In the AutoLayout text boxes, promoting or demoting an item in the list corresponds to applying a
+
+different outline style. The second outline level corresponds to Outline 2 style, the third outline level
+
+to Outline 3 style, and so on. A change in level and style produces other changes, for example, to
+
+font size, bullet type, and so on.
+
+> Adding and formatting text |23
+
+In text boxes, a new outline level can only be created by using the Tab key to demote the list entry
+
+and the Shift+Tab key combination to promote the list entry.
+
+Do not try to change the outline level by selecting the text and then clicking the desired
+
+outline style as you would in Writer. Due to the way that presentation styles work in
+
+Impress, it is not possible to change the level in this way.
+
+Changing list appearance
+
+You can fully customize list appearance by changing the bullet type or numbering for the entire list
+
+or for only a single entry. All of the changes can be made using the Bullets and Numbering dialog
+
+(Figure 23 ), which is accessed by going to Format > Bullets and Numbering on the Menu bar or
+
+by clicking on the Bullets Icon or the Numbering icon on the Text Formatting toolbar.
+
+For the entire list:
+
+1) Select the entire list or click on the border of the text box so that the resizing handles are
+
+displayed.
+
+2) Select Format > Bullets and Numbering on the Menu bar or click on the Bullets or
+
+Numbering icon on the Text Formatting toolbar.
+
+Figure 23 : Bullets and Numbering dialog
+
+3) The Bullets and Numbering dialog (Figure 23 ) contains five pages: Bullets, Numbering type,
+
+Image, Position, and Customize.
+
+– If a bullet list is needed, select the desired bullet style from the default styles available
+
+on the Bullets page.
+
+– If a graphics style is needed, select one from those available on the Image page.
+
+– If a numbered list is needed, select one of the default numbering styles on the
+
+Numbering type page.
+
+– Use the Position page to set the indent and numbering spacing and alignment of your
+
+> 24 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+list.
+
+– Use the Customize page to customize the numbering, color, relative size, and character
+
+used for your list.
+
+4) For a single list entry, click anywhere in the text and then follow steps 2 and 3 above.
+
+If the list was created in an AutoLayout text box, then an alternative way to change the entire list is
+
+to modify the Outline styles. Changes made to the outline style will apply to all the slides using
+
+them.
+
+# Adding pictures, tables, charts, and media
+
+A contents box can contain pictures, tables, charts, or media as well as text. This section provides
+
+a quick overview of how to work with these objects. For more information on adding pictures,
+
+tables, charts, or media, please refer to the Impress Guide .
+
+# Adding pictures
+
+To add a picture to a contents box:
+
+1) Go to Insert > Image on the Menu bar and then select either From file or Scan .
+
+2) Alternatively, after inserting a new slide, click the Insert Image icon (Figure 16 on page 18 )
+
+on the new slide and select the file from the Insert Image dialog that opens. To see a
+
+preview of the picture, select Preview at the bottom of the Insert Image dialog.
+
+3) Move the picture to the desired location.
+
+4) The picture will automatically resize to fill the area of the content box. Follow the directions
+
+in the note below when manually resizing a graphic.
+
+When resizing a graphic, right-click the picture. Select Position and Size from the
+
+context menu and make sure that Keep ratio is selected. Then adjust the height or
+
+width to the size you need. As you adjust one dimension, both dimensions will change
+
+to keep the width and height ratio the same, ensuring that the picture will not become
+
+distorted. Remember also that resizing a bitmap image will reduce its quality; it is
+
+better to create an image of the desired size outside of Impress.
+
+# Adding tables
+
+To add basic tables to a slide:
+
+1) Go to Insert > Table on the Menu bar, or click the Table icon on the Standard toolbar.
+
+2) If there is a table already on the slide and it is selected, click the Table icon on the
+
+Table toolbar. The Table toolbar is only visible after selecting View > Toolbars > Table on
+
+the Menu bar and when a table is selected.
+
+3) Alternatively, and after inserting a new slide into your presentation, click the Insert Table
+
+icon (Figure 16 on page 18 ).
+
+4) Select the number of rows and columns required from the Insert Table dialog that opens.
+
+5) Alternatively, click the small triangle to the right of the Table icon and select the number
+
+of rows and columns by dragging the cursor.
+
+6) Select a design style from the available options for your table in the Table Design deck in
+
+the Properties section of the Sidebar (Figure 24 ). If the Table Design section does not
+
+> Adding pictures, tables, charts, and media |25
+
+automatically open after inserting or selecting a table, click on the Properties icon at the
+
+side of the Sidebar.
+
+Selecting from any of the styles in the Table Design section in the Sidebar creates a
+
+table based on that style. If you create a table by another method, you can still apply a
+
+style of your choice later.
+
+The Table toolbar in Impress offers the same functions as the Table toolbar in Writer, with the
+
+exception of the calculation functions Sort and Sum. To use Sum and Sort in your presentation,
+
+you have to insert a Calc spreadsheet.
+
+After the table is created, you can modify it by adding and deleting rows and columns, adjusting
+
+width and spacing, adding borders, background colors and so on. For more information on working
+
+with tables see the Impress Guide Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text and the Writer Guide
+
+Chapter 9 Working with Tables .
+
+Figure 24 : Sidebar Table Design section
+
+Entering data into table cells is similar to working with text box objects. Click in the cell you wish to
+
+add data to and begin typing. To move around cells quickly, use the following keyboard options:
+
+• Press the arrow keys to move the cursor to another cell if the cell is empty, or to the next
+
+character if the cell already contains text.
+
+• Press the Tab key to move to the next cell on the right and press Shift+Tab to move to the
+
+next cell on the left.
+
+> 26 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+# Adding charts
+
+To insert a chart in a slide:
+
+1) Go to Insert > Chart on the Menu bar or click on the Chart icon in the Standard
+
+toolbar.
+
+2) Alternatively and after inserting a new slide, click on the Insert Chart icon (Figure 16 on
+
+page 18 ).
+
+3) Impress will insert a default chart and open the Chart dialog. To modify the chart type, insert
+
+your own data and change the formatting, refer to the Impress Guide .
+
+# Adding media files
+
+To insert media files, such as music and movie clips, in a slide:
+
+1) Go to Insert > Audio or Video on the Menu bar.
+
+2) Alternatively and after inserting a new slide, click on the Insert Audio or Video icon (Figure
+
+16 on page 18 ).
+
+3) A media player will open at the bottom of the screen and you can preview the media.
+
+4) When an audio file is inserted, the contents box will show a loudspeaker image.
+
+# Adding graphics, spreadsheets, and other objects
+
+Graphics, such as shapes, callouts, and arrows, are often useful to complement the text on a slide.
+
+These objects are handled much the same way as graphics in Draw. For more information, see the
+
+Draw Guide Chapter 7 Getting Started with Draw , or the Impress Guide Chapters 4, 5 , and 6.
+
+Spreadsheets embedded in Impress include most of the functionality of Calc spreadsheets and are
+
+capable of performing extremely complex calculations and data analysis. If you need to analyze
+
+your data or apply formulas, these operations are best performed in a Calc spreadsheet and the
+
+results displayed in an embedded Calc spreadsheet or even better in an Impress table.
+
+Alternatively, go to Insert > Object > OLE Object on the Menu bar. You can select from options
+
+that include a LibreOffice 5.0 Spreadsheet. This opens a spreadsheet in the middle of the slide and
+
+the menus and toolbars change to those used in Calc. You can start adding data, though you may
+
+have to resize the visible area on the slide. You can also insert an existing spreadsheet and use
+
+the viewport to select the data that you want to display on your slide.
+
+Impress offers the capability of inserting into a slide various other types of objects such as Writer
+
+documents, Math formulas, Draw drawings, or another presentation. For details on using these
+
+objects, refer to the Impress Guide Chapter 7 Including Spreadsheets, Charts, and Other Objects .
+
+# Working with slide masters and styles
+
+A slide master is a slide that is used as the starting point for other slides. It is similar to a page style
+
+in Writer and it controls the basic formatting of all slides based on it. A slide show can have more
+
+than one slide master.
+
+LibreOffice uses three terms for a slide that is used to create other slides: master slide ,
+
+slide master , and master page . This book uses the term slide master, except when
+
+describing the user interface.
+
+A slide master has a defined set of characteristics, including background colors, graphics,
+
+gradients; and other objects (such as logos, decorative lines and so on), headers and footers,
+
+placement and size of text frames, and text format.
+
+> Working with slide masters and styles |27
+
+# Styles
+
+All of the characteristics of slide masters are controlled by styles. New slides that you create using
+
+a slide master have styles that are inherited from the slide master which was used. Changing a
+
+style in a slide master results in changes to all slides based on that slide master, but you can
+
+modify individual slides without affecting the slide master.
+
+Although it is highly recommended to use the slide masters whenever possible, there
+
+are occasions where manual changes are needed for a particular slide, for example to
+
+enlarge the chart area when the text and chart layout is used.
+
+Slide masters have two types of styles associated with them: presentation styles and image styles .
+
+The prepackaged presentation styles can be modified, but new presentation styles cannot be
+
+created. For image styles, you can modify the prepackaged styles and also create new image
+
+styles.
+
+Presentation styles affect three elements of a slide master: background, background objects (such
+
+as icons, decorative lines, and text frames), and text placed on the slide. Text styles are further
+
+divided into Notes , Outline 1 through Outline 9 , Subtitle , and Title . The outline styles are used for
+
+the different levels of the outline to which they belong. For example, Outline 2 is used for the sub-
+
+points of Outline 1, and Outline 3 is used for the sub-points of Outline 2, and so on.
+
+Image styles are not restricted and can affect many of the elements of a slide. Note that text styles
+
+exist in both the presentation and image style selections.
+
+# Slide masters
+
+Impress comes with a collection of slide masters. These slide masters are shown in the Master
+
+Pages section of the Sidebar (Figure 25 ), which has three subsections: Used in This Presentation ,
+
+Recently Used , and Available for Use . Click the + sign next to the name of a subsection to expand
+
+it to show thumbnails of the slides, or click the – sign to collapse the subsection to hide the
+
+thumbnails.
+
+Each of the slide masters shown in the Available for Use list is from a template of the same name.
+
+If you have created your own templates, or added templates from other sources, slide masters
+
+from those templates will also appear in this list.
+
+# Creating a slide master
+
+Creating a new slide master is similar to modifying the default slide master.
+
+1) Enable editing of slide masters by selecting View > Slide Master on the Menu bar and the
+
+Master View toolbar opens (Figure 26 ). If the Master View toolbar does not appear, go to
+
+View > Toolbars and select Master View.
+
+2) On the Master View toolbar, click the New Master icon .
+
+3) A new slide master appears in the Slides pane. Modify this slide master to suit your
+
+requirements.
+
+4) It is also recommended that you rename this new slide master. Right-click on the slide in
+
+the Slides pane and select Rename master from the context menu.
+
+5) When finished creating a slide master, click Close Master View on the Master View toolbar
+
+and return to normal slide editing mode.
+

+
+# Applying a slide master
+
+To apply a slide master to all the slides in your presentation:
+
+1) Click on the Master Pages icon in the Sidebar to open the Master Pages section
+
+(Figure 25 ).
+
+2) To apply one of the slide masters from the available selection to all slides in your
+
+presentation, right-click on it and select Apply to All Slides on the context menu.
+
+To apply a different slide master to one or more selected slides:
+
+1) In the Slide Pane, select the slide or slides where you want to use a new slide master.
+
+2) In the Master Pages section on the Sidebar, right-click on the slide master you want to
+
+apply to the selected slides, and select Apply to Selected Slides on the context menu.
+
+> Working with slide masters and styles |29
+
+# Loading additional slide masters
+
+Sometimes, in the same set of slides, you may need to mix multiple slide masters that may belong
+
+to different templates. For example, you may need a completely different layout for the first slide of
+
+the presentation, or you may want to add to your presentation a slide from a different presentation
+
+(based on a template available on the hard disk).
+
+1) Go to Slide > Slide Design on the Menu bar or right-click on a slide in the Slides Pane and
+
+select Slide Design from the context menu to open the Slide Design dialog (Figure 27 ).
+
+This dialog shows the slide masters already available for use.
+
+2) To add more slide masters, click the Load button to open the Load Slide Design dialog
+
+(Figure 28 ).
+
+3) Select in the Load Slide Design dialog the template from which to load the slide master and
+
+click OK .
+
+4) Click OK again to close the Slide Design dialog.
+
+5) The slide masters in the template you selected to use are now shown in the Available for
+
+use subsection of Master Pages.
+
+Figure 27 : Slide Design dialog
+
+Figure 28 : Load Slide Design dialog
+
+> 30 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+The slide masters you have loaded will also be available the next time you load the
+
+presentation. If you want to delete the unused slide masters, click the corresponding
+
+checkbox in the Slide Design dialog. If the slide master was not used in the
+
+presentation, it is removed from the list of available slide masters.
+
+To limit the size of the presentation file, you may want to minimize the number of slide
+
+masters used.
+
+# Modifying a slide master
+
+The following items can be changed on a slide master:
+
+• Background (color, gradient, hatching, or bitmap)
+
+• Background objects (for example, a logo or decorative graphics)
+
+• Size, placement, and contents of header and footer elements to appear on every slide
+
+• Size and placement of default frames for slide titles and content
+
+For more information on modifying slide masters, see the Impress Guide Chapter 2 Using Slide
+
+Masters, Styles, and Templates .
+
+1) Select View > Slide Master from the Menu bar. This unlocks the properties of a slide
+
+master so you can edit it.
+
+2) Select a slide master in Master Pages in the Slides pane.
+
+3) Select an object on the slide master in the Workspace and the Sidebar will display the
+
+property options that can be changed for the selected object. Figure 29 shows a graphic
+
+object selected with the Graphic properties section open on the Sidebar.
+
+4) Make all necessary changes to the slide master, then click the Close Master View icon on
+
+the Master View toolbar or go to View > Normal on the Menu bar to exit from editing slide
+
+masters.
+
+5) Save your presentation file before continuing.
+
+## Caution
+
+Any changes made to one slide when in Master View mode will appear on all slides
+
+using this slide master. Always make sure you Close Master View and return to Normal
+
+view before working on any of the presentation slides.
+
+The changes made to one of the slides in Normal view (for example, changes to the
+
+bullet point style, the color of the title area, and so on) will not be overridden by
+
+subsequent changes to the slide master. There are cases, however, where it is
+
+desirable to revert a manually modified element of the slide to the style defined in the
+
+slide master. To revert back to default formatting, select the element and select
+

+Figure 29 : Editing a slide master
+
+# Adding text, footers, and fields to all slides
+
+A slide master can have text, footers, or fields added so that they appear on every slide in your
+
+presentation. Headers are not normally added to slides.
+
+Text
+
+1) Go to View > Slide Master on the Menu bar to open Master View (Figure 30 ).
+
+2) On the Drawing toolbar, select the Text icon or press the F2 key.
+
+3) Click and drag in the master page to draw a text object and then type or paste your text into
+
+the text object.
+
+4) Go to View > Normal on the Menu bar or click on Close Master View on the Master View
+
+toolbar when you have finished entering text objects that you want to appear on every slide
+
+in your presentation.
+
+Footers
+
+To add a footer to your slides:
+
+1) Go to View > Slide Master on the Menu bar to open Master View (Figure 30 ).
+
+2) Go to Insert > Field or Insert > Page Number on the Menu bar and time to open the
+
+Header and Footer dialog (Figure 31 ).
+
+3) Select the type of date and time and type in the footer text and slide number from the
+
+available options in the dialog.
+
+4) Click Apply to All to apply your changes to all the slide masters in your presentation, or
+
+click Apply to apply your changes to the selected slide master in your presentation.
+
+5) Alternatively, you can add the date/time, footer text and slide number directly into their
+
+respective areas as shown in Figure 30 .
+
+Normally only footers are used on a slide. To create a header, you can use a text box
+
+as explained in “ Text ” on page 32 .

+
+Fields
+
+To add a field into an object or as a separate object on a slide, select Insert > Fields on the Menu
+
+bar and select the required field from the submenu. If you want to edit this field in your slide, see
+
+the Impress Guide Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text for more information.
+
+The fields you can use in Impress are as follows:
+
+• Date (fixed)
+
+• Date (variable): updates automatically when you reload a file
+
+> Working with slide masters and styles |33
+
+• Time (fixed)
+
+• Time (variable): updates automatically when you reload a file
+
+• Author: first and last names listed in the LibreOffice user data
+
+• Page Number: the slide number in Impress
+
+• Page Count: the number of slides in your presentation
+
+• File Name
+
+To change the author information, go to Tools > Options > LibreOffice > User Data
+
+on the Menu bar.
+
+To change the number format (1,2,3 or a,b,c or i,ii,iii, and so on) for the number field,
+
+go to Slide > Page/Slide Properties... on the Menu bar and then select a format from
+
+the Format list in the Layout Settings area.
+
+To change a paragraph style throughout your presentation, open the Styles and
+
+Formatting dialog and modify the appropriate presentation style.
+
+# Adding comments to a presentation
+
+Impress supports comments similar to those in Writer and Calc.
+
+In Normal View, go to Insert > Comment on the Menu bar to open a blank comment (Figure 32 ). A
+
+small box containing your initials appears in the upper left-hand corner of the slide, with a larger
+
+text box beside it. Impress automatically adds your name and the current date at the bottom of the
+
+text box.
+
+Type or paste your comment into the text box. You can optionally apply some basic formatting to
+
+the comment by selecting it, right-clicking, and choosing from the context menu that opens. This
+
+menu allows you to apply formatting to selected text, delete the current comment, delete all
+
+comments from the same author, or delete all comments in the presentation.
+
+Figure 32 : Inserting comments
+
+You can move the small comment markers to anywhere you wish on the slide. Typically you might
+
+place it on or near an object you refer to in the comment.
+
+To show or hide the comment markers, choose View > Comments .
+
+Select Tools > Options > User Data to configure the name you want to appear in the comment.
+
+If more than one person edits the document, each author is automatically allocated a different
+
+background color for their comments.
+
+> 34 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+# Creating a photo album
+
+Impress can creat a photo album from a set of images, usually with one photo per slide. This photo
+
+album can source multimedia shows with graphics and images or even collect your latest vacation
+
+pictures into a presentation file.
+
+To insert a photo album into your presentation
+
+1) Open an existing or blank presentation.
+
+2) Go to the slide that precedes the photo album.
+
+3) Choose Insert > Media > Photo Album .
+
+4) In the Create Photo Album dialog (Figure 33 ), click Add . A standard file browser opens.
+
+5) Locate the files you want to insert.
+
+If several images are in the same folder, you can select a group of photos using the
+
+Shift or Ctrl keys while clicking on their filenames.
+
+6) Click Open to add the files to the Photo Album.
+
+Figure 33 : The photo album dialog box with photo preview
+
+Click on a file name to display it in the Preview area.
+
+7) Select the number of images per slide in the Slide layout list box.
+
+8) Select the Add caption to each slide option, if necessary, to insert a text box for the
+
+caption.
+
+9) Create the required sequence by removing images or moving them up or down in the list of
+
+images. When the sequence of images is ready, click Insert Slides . (You can change the
+
+sequence and remove or insert images later, as you can with any slides.)
+
+Impress will create a presentation with as many pages as determined by the Slide layout number
+
+of slides per page. If you selected Add caption to each slide , there will be a placeholder for the
+
+image caption (title) on each slide.
+
+> Creating a photo album |35
+
+Use the slide sorter (see page 11 ) to reorder your photo album. Use slide transitions
+
+(page 36 ) to go smoothly to the following photo. Use audio resources (page 27 ) to
+
+insert a musical background.
+
+# Setting up a slide show
+
+As mentioned in “ Modifying the slide show ” on page 19 , Impress allocates reasonable default
+
+settings for slide shows, while at the same time allowing for customizing many aspects of the slide
+
+show experience. This section covers only some aspects; more advanced techniques are
+
+explained in the Impress Guide Chapter 9 Slide Shows .
+
+Most of the tasks are best done in Slide Sorter view where you can see most of the slides
+
+simultaneously. Go to View > Slide Sorter on the Menu bar or click the Slide Sorter tab at the top
+
+of the Workspace.
+
+# One slide set – multiple presentations
+
+In many situations, you may find that you have more slides than the time available to present them
+
+or you may want to provide a rapid overview without dwelling on the details. Rather than having to
+
+create a new presentation, you can use two tools that Impress offers: hiding slides and custom
+
+slide shows.
+
+Hiding slides
+
+1) Select the slide you want to hide in the Slide Pane or Slide Sorter view on the Workspace
+
+area.
+
+2) Go to Slide > Hide Slide on the Menu bar or right-click on the slide thumbnail and select
+
+Hide Slide from the context menu. Hidden slides are marked by a diagonal bars across the
+
+slide.
+
+Custom slide shows
+
+If you want to create a custom slide show from the same presentation:
+
+1) Select the slides you want to use in your custom slide show.
+
+2) Go to Slide Show > Custom Slide Show on the Menu bar.
+
+3) Click on the New button to create a new sequence of slides and save it with a different
+
+name. You can have as many slide shows as you want from a single presentation.
+
+# Slide transitions
+
+Slide transition is the animation that is played when a slide is changed for the next slide in your
+
+presentation. You can configure the slide transition from the Slide Transition section in the Tasks
+
+Pane.
+
+1) Go to Slide > Slide Transition on the Menu bar or click on the Slide Transition icon
+
+on the Sidebar to open the options available for slide transitions.
+
+2) Select the desired transition, the speed of the animation, and whether the transition should
+
+happen when you click the mouse (preferred) or automatically after a certain number of
+
+seconds.
+
+3) Click Apply to All Slides to apply the transition for all of your presentation or continue
+
+selecting transitions to place between each slide in your presentation.
+
+> 36 |Chapter 6 Getting Started with Impress
+
+The Slide Transition section has a very useful choice: Automatic preview. Select its
+
+checkbox and when you make any changes in a slide transition, the new slide is
+
+previewed in the Slide Design area, including its transition effect.
+
+# Slide advance
+
+You can set the presentation to advance automatically to the next slide after a set amount of time
+
+from the Slide Transition section in the Sidebar.
+
+1) Go to Advance slide and select the Automatically after option.
+
+2) Enter the required amount of time in seconds that each slide will be displayed.
+
+3) Click on the Apply to All Slides button to apply the same display time to all slides.
+
+To apply a different display time to each slide in your presentation:
+
+1) Go to Slide Show > Rehearse Timings on the Menu bar and the slide show starts.
+
+2) When you are ready to advance to the next slide, mouse click on the display background or
+
+press the right arrow or space bar on your keyboard.
+
+3) Impress will memorize the timings for each slide and will advance to the next slide
+
+automatically using these timings when you run the slide show.
+
+To restart a slide show automatically after the last slide has been displayed:
+
+1) Go to Slide Show > Slide Show Settings on the Menu bar.
+
+2) Select Auto and the timing of the pause between slide shows.
+
+3) Click OK when you have finished.
+
+# Running a slide show
+
+To run a slide show, do one of the following:
+
+• Click Slide Show > Start from first Slide on the Menu bar.
+
+• Click the Start from first Slide icon on the Presentation toolbar.
+
+• Press F5 on the keyboard.
+
+If the slide advance is set to Automatically after X sec , let the slide show run by itself.
+
+If the slide advance is set to On mouse click , do one of the following to move from one slide to the
+
+next:
+
+• Use the arrow keys on the keyboard to go to the next slide or to go back to the previous
+
+one.
+
+• Click the mouse to move to the next slide.
+
+• Press the spacebar on the keyboard to advance to the next slide.
+
+Right-click anywhere on the screen to open a context menu where you can navigate through the
+
+slides and set other options.
+
+To exit the slide show at any time including when the slide show has ended, press the Esc key.
+
+# Presenter Console
+
+LibreOffice Impress has a Presenter Console function that can be used when an extra display for
+
+presentation has been connected to your computer. The Presenter Console (Figure 34 ) provides
+
+extra control over slide shows by using different views on your computer display and on the display
+
+> Setting up a slide show |37
+
+that the audience sees. The view you see on your computer display includes the current slide, the
+
+upcoming slide, any slide notes, and a presentation timer.
+
+For more information and details about using the Presenter Console, see the Impress Guide
+
+Chapter 9 Slide Shows .
+
+Figure 34 : Impress Presenter Console
+
+# Using Impress Remote control
+
+Impress Remote is a mobile application developed by the community for Android and iOS systems
+
+that allows you to control a live presentation with a mobile device such as a phone or tablet.
+
+The connection between your mobile device and the computer running your presentation is made
+
+through a Bluetooth pairing or a local network connection between the two.
+
+# Getting Impress Remote
+
+To get the software, access your mobile device application store, either Google Play Store for
+
+Android devices or Apple Store for IOs devices. Search for “Impress Remote” and select the one
+
+that is from The Document Foundation and install it in your device.
+
+# Connecting the mobile device to the computer
+
+Activate Bluetooth on both devices, then pair the devices. (Refer to the manuals for your mobile
+
+device and computer operating system for instructions on enabling, setting up a Bluetooth
+
+identifier, and pairing.)
+
+Once the pairing is established, your mobile device is ready to control your presentation.
+
+# Enabling remote control in Impress
+
+An Impress slide show with remote control is not enabled by default. To enable it, go to Tools >
+
+Options > LibreOffice Impress > General and select Enable Remote Control checkbox in the
+
+Presentation area of the dialog (Figure 35 ).

+
+## []( slides
+
+Tip
+
+Duplicating a slide is a good way of preventing slides from being shown with too much information, which can make it difficult for an audience to understand. If a slide becomes crowded with information, try duplicating the slide and splitting the information points over two or more slides. All the formatting, backgrounds, and so on are preserved in each duplicated slide.
+
+Duplicating a slide is an easy method of adding slides to a presentation if the new slides are to inherit formatting, layout, and animations from a selected slide.
+
+1)Open Normal or Slide Sorter view in the Workspace.
+
+2)Select the slides for duplication in the Slide Sorter view or the Slides pane.
+
+3)Go to Slide > Duplicate Slide on the Menu bar, or right click on the selected slides and select Duplicate Slide from the context menu. The duplicated slides are inserted into the presentation after the selected slides.
+
+## []( slides
+
+1)Open Normal or Slide Sorter view in the Workspace.
+
+2)Select a slide and open the Rename Slide dialog using one of the following methods:
+
+* Go to Slide > Rename Slide on the Menu bar.
+
+* Right-click on the selected slide in the Slides pane and select Rename Slide from the context menu.
+
+* Right-click on the selected slide in the Slide Sorter view and select Rename Slide from the context menu.
+
+3)In the Rename Slide dialog that opens, type a new name for the slide in the Name text box.
+
+4)Click OK to save the change and close the Rename Slide dialog.
+
+Occasionally there may be a slide with too many points to fit in the space available. Instead of reducing the font size or using other methods to squeeze more text onto the slide, it is better to subdivide the contents of the slide into two or more slides.
+
+1)Select the slide for expansion in the Slides pane.
+
+2)Go to Slide > Expand Slide on the Menu bar to create new slides from the first outline level on the original slide. The first outline level becomes the title of each new slide. Outline levels below each first level on the original slide are moved up one outline level in the new slides. An example of expanded slides is shown in Figure 3.
+
+3)If necessary, rearrange the new slides in the presentation order.
+
+Figure 3: Example of expanding slides
+
+Image 3: Image3
+
+Figure 4: Example summary slide
+
+Image 4: Image4
+
+## []( summary slides
+
+Summary slides are normally used when creating an agenda for a presentation.
+
+1)Select the slide that will be the first slide to appear in the summary.
+
+2)Go to Slide > Summary Slide on the Menu bar to create a summary slide at the end of the presentation. Bullet points are created using the titles of the slides in the presentation. An example summary slide is shown in Figure 4.
+
+3)If necessary, move the summary slide to a position where it is to appear in the presentation.
+
+When expanding a slide or creating a summary slide, the selected slide must contain an outline.
+
+Select a slide or slides in the Slides pane, Normal view, or Slide Sorter view in the Workspace, then use one of the following methods to delete slides:
+
+* Go to Slide > Delete Slide on the Menu bar.
+
+* Right-click on selected slides and select Delete Slide from the context menu.
+
+* Press the Delete or Backspace key.
+
+## []( slides from an outline
+
+When planning a presentation it may be useful to develop an outline from a LibreOffice Writer file. Once the outline is created, one or more separate slides can be created for each of the top level outline elements.
+
+## []( a Writer document
+
+1)Open the file in Writer that is going to be used as a base to create a presentation outline.
+
+2)Go to File > Send > Outline to Presentation on the Writer Menu bar. A new presentation is created and opens in Impress Outline view. The heading paragraph styles are converted into the Impress outline styles. An example outline from a Writer document is shown in Figure 5.
+
+Figure 5: Example outline from LibreOffice Writer
+
+Image 5: Image5
+
+Figure 6: Create AutoAbstract dialog
+
+Image 6: Image6
+
+3)If necessary, duplicate, or expand slides and manually change slide contents to create a presentation. For more information, see “Duplicating slides” on page1 and “Expanding slides” on page1.
+
+To create a presentation from a Writer document, the Writer document must contain headings formatted using heading paragraph styles.
+
+## []( AutoAbstract
+
+1)Open the file in Writer that is going to be used as a base to create a presentation outline.
+
+2)Go to File > Send > AutoAbstract to Presentation on the Writer Menu bar to open the Create AutoAbstract dialog (Figure 6).
+
+3)Select the number of outline levels for the presentation in the Included outline levels box. For example, if three levels are selected, all headings formatted with Heading 1 to 3 styles are included as Outline levels 1 to 3. An example outline from a Writer document is shown in Figure 5.
+
+4)Select the number of paragraphs for each outline level for in the presentation in the Paragraphs per level box. For example, if three paragraphs are selected, each outline level will contain three paragraphs.
+
+Figure 7: Outline toolbar
+
+Image 7: Image7
+
+5)Click OK to close the Create AutoAbstract dialog and an outline is created in a new Impress presentation.
+
+6)Some outline levels may have too many points to fit on one slide. If necessary, duplicate or expand slides and manually change slide contents to create a simpler presentation. For more information, see “Duplicating slides” on page1 and “Expanding slides” on page1.
+
+7)When the presentation is created, some hierarchical structure of the outline may be lost. If necessary, use Promote or Demote tools on the Outline toolbar (Figure 7) to move the outline points to the correct level.
+
+To create a presentation using AutoAbstract and send content from Writer to Impress, the text must contain headings formatted with the heading paragraph styles.
+
+## []( and pasting an outline
+
+1)Open the file in Writer containing an outline that is going to be used as a base to create a presentation outline.
+
+2)Highlight the outline and select Edit > Copy on the Menu bar, or right click on the selected outline and select Copy from the context menu.
+
+3)Create a new presentation in Impress, or create a new slide in an existing presentation.
+
+4)Select the required layout for the slides. For more information, see Chapter 1, Introducing Impress.
+
+5)Paste the copied outline into the text area of the slide. Do not worry if the text does not fit the space on the slide.
+
+6)If the slide contains too much text, duplicate or expand slides and manually change slide contents to create a simpler presentation that an audience can better understand. For more information, see “Duplicating slides” on page1 and “Expanding slides” on page1.
+
+7)When the presentation is created, some hierarchical structure of the outline may be lost. If necessary, use Promote or Demote tools on the Outline toolbar (Figure 7) to move the outline points to the correct level.
+
+Use master slides in a presentation to create a professional look and avoid manually modifying the formatting of each individual slide. Multiple master slides can be used in a single presentation to provide the same look to groups of slides or individual slides. See Chapter 2, Master Slides, Styles, and Templates for more information about using master slides.

+Libre Office Impress Lesson 2: Creating a Slide Show
+
+LibreOffice Impress
+
+Lesson 2 Outline
+
+Working with text boxes.
+
+ Using tables and Graphs.
+
+ Putting together a slide show.
+
+ Creating a bulleted and numbered list.
+
+ Using Hyperlinks.
+
+Working with text
+
+boxes.
+
+There are two ways of
+
+adding text boxes to slides:
+
+ Choose a predefined layout
+
+from the Layouts section
+
+of the Tasks pane,
+
+containing text
+
+ These text boxes are called
+
+AutoLayout text boxes.
+
+ Create a text box using the
+
+text tool in the Drawing
+
+toolbar or the Text toolbar.
+
+Using text boxes
+
+created from the Layout
+
+section
+
+Make sure Normal view is
+
+selected:
+
+1) Click in the text box that
+
+reads Click to add text.
+
+2) Type or paste your text in
+
+the text box.
+
+Using text boxes
+
+created from the text tool
+
+Make sure Normal View is
+
+selected:
+
+1) Click on the Text icon on the
+
+Drawing toolbar. The default
+
+position of the drawing toolbar is
+
+towards the bottom of the screen.
+
+If the Drawing toolbar with the
+
+text icon is not visible, choose
+
+View > Toolbars > Drawing.
+
+2) Click and drag to draw a text box
+
+on the slide. This sets the width.
+
+Do not worry about the height
+
+because the text box will expand as
+
+you type.
+
+3) Release the mouse button when
+
+finished. The cursor appears in the
+
+text box, which is now in edit mode
+
+4) Type or paste your text in the
+
+text box.
+
+5) Click outside the text box to
+
+deselect it.
+
+Moving a text
+
+box
+
+In Normal view, notice how the
+
+pointer changes from an arrow to
+
+an I-beam as you move it over the
+
+text in a text box.
+
+1)Click when the pointer becomes an I-
+
+beam. The text box is now in edit
+
+mode. In this mode a hashed border is
+
+visible around the text box edges.
+
+2) Move the I-beam (or pointer) over
+
+the hashed border. Notice how the I-
+

+
+Inserting text
+
+Pasting text
+
+Text
+
+may be inserted into the text box
+
+by copying it from another document
+
+and pasting it into Impress. However,
+
+the pasted text will probably not
+
+match the formatting of the
+
+surrounding text or that of the other
+
+slides in the presentation.
+
+This may be what you want on some
+
+occasions; however in most cases you
+
+want to make sure that the
+
+presentation style is consistent. There
+
+are several ways to ensure
+
+consistency; these methods are
+
+explained below.
+
+Pasting unformatted text
+
+It is normally good practice to paste text
+
+without formatting and apply the
+
+formatting later.
+
+To paste without formatting, either press
+
+Control+Shift+V and then select
+
+Unformatted text from the dialog that
+
+appears, or click on the small black
+
+triangle next to the paste symbol in the
+
+standard toolbar and select
+
+Unformatted text. The unformatted
+
+text will be formatted with the outline
+
+style at the cursor position in an
+
+AutoLayout text box or with the default
+
+graphic style in a normal text box.
+
+10.
+
+Formatting pasted text
+
+pasting the text into an AutoLayout
+
+area, then to give the pasted text the
+
+same look and feel of the rest of the
+
+presentation apply the appropriate
+
+outline style to the text. To do so:
+
+1)Paste the text in the desired position.
+
+Do not worry if it does not look right:
+
+it will in a minute.
+
+2) Select the text you have just pasted
+
+3) Select Format > Default
+
+formatting from the menu bar. This
+
+operation will assign one of the nine
+
+Presentation styles to the text
+
+(depending on where the insertion is
+
+made).
+
+4) Use the four arrows on the Text
+
+Formatting toolbar to move the text
+
+to the appropriate position and give it
+
+the appropriate outline level. The left
+
+arrow promotes the list entry by one
+
+level (for example from Outline 3 to
+
+Outline 2), the right arrow demotes
+
+the list entry by one level, the up and
+
+down arrows move the list entry.
+
+5) Apply manual formatting as
+
+required to sections of the text (to
+
+change font attributes, tabs,
+
+and so on).
+
+11.
+
+Formatting pasted text
+
+cont...
+
+If you are pasting text into a text box, you can still use
+
+styles to quickly format the text. Note that only one
+
+graphic style can be applied to the copied text. To do
+
+this:
+
+1) Paste the text in the desired position.
+
+2) Select the text you have just pasted.
+
+3) Select the desired graphic style.
+
+4) Apply manual formatting as required to sections of
+
+the text.
+
+12.
+
+Using tables and
+
+Graphs.
+
+Tables are a powerful mechanism to convey structured
+
+information quickly, so they represent an important tool
+
+when creating a presentation. You can create tables
+
+directly in Impress eliminating the need to embed a Calc
+
+spreadsheet or a Writer text table in your presentation.
+
+However, in some circumstances, it makes sense to
+
+embed a Calc spreadsheet, especially when you require
+
+greater functionality in the table. The tables provided by
+
+Impress do have a limited functionality.
+
+13.
+
+Table Designs
+
+14.
+
+Creating a table
+
+When
+
+working with tables, it is useful
+
+to know the number of rows and
+
+columns needed as well as the
+
+appearance. The parameters can be
+
+adjusted later, but this is more
+
+laborious than setting the correct table
+
+dimensions from the beginning.
+
+To insert a table, proceed as follows:
+
+1)Select the slide which will contain the
+
+table and, if necessary, modify the slide
+
+layout to create space for the table.
+
+2)If the task pane is not visible, select
+
+View> Task pane.
+
+3) Select one of the predefined styles,
+
+which only differ in the color scheme.
+
+You will be able to change the table
+
+colors later on. However, it is
+
+recommended that you select a color
+
+scheme similar to the one you want.
+
+where you can specify the number of
+
+rows and columns.
+
+15.
+
+Inserting Tables
+
+The table
+
+is placed initially at
+
+the center of the slide, but you
+
+can move it by selecting it and
+
+then dragging it to the new
+
+position.
+
+ You can also create a table
+
+directly by selecting Insert >
+
+Table from the main menu or
+
+with the Insert Table icon in
+
+the Standard toolbar.
+
+ This opens the Insert Table
+
+dialog where you can specify the
+
+number of columns and rows.
+
+16.
+
+More Tables
+
+ Click
+
+on the small black triangle
+
+next to the Insert Table icon to
+
+open a graphic tool for inserting
+
+a table.
+
+ To use this tool, move the mouse
+
+to the right and down in the grid
+
+until you have the required
+
+number of columns and rows
+
+and then click the left mouse
+
+button to insert your table
+
+17.
+
+Task pane options
+
+The
+
+following options are available
+
+in the Show section of the task
+
+pane:
+
+ Header Row: selected by default, it
+
+adds a first row with a different
+
+background from the rest of the table.
+
+ Total Row: the opposite of Header
+
+row; if selected, it changes the
+
+background of the last row to make it
+
+stand out from the other rows.
+
+ Banded Rows: selected by default, this
+
+option colors alternate rows with
+
+different backgrounds making it easier
+
+to ready data presented in rows.
+
+ First Column: highlights the first
+
+column of the table by allocating a
+
+darker background to it.
+
+ Last Column: does the same to the last
+
+column.
+
+ Banded Columns: when selected,
+
+alternate columns are colored
+
+differently.

+
+Creating a bulleted
+
+and numbered
+
+list.
+
+ The procedure to create a bulleted or numbered
+
+list varies depending on the type of text box used,
+
+although the tools to manage the list and
+
+customize the appearance are the same.
+
+ In text boxes created automatically by Impress
+
+(called AutoLayout), the outline styles available
+
+are by default bulleted lists. For normal text boxes
+
+an additional step is required to create a bulleted
+
+list.
+
+34.
+
+Creating lists in
+
+AutoLayout text
+
+boxes
+
+Every text box included in the available
+
+layouts is already formatted as a
+
+bulleted list, therefore to create a
+
+bulleted list the only necessary steps
+
+are:
+
+ 1) From the Layout pane, choose a
+
+slide design that contains a text box.
+
+Those are easily recognizable from
+
+the thumbnail.
+
+ 2) Click in the text box that reads
+
+Click to add an outline.
+
+ 3) Type the text, then press Enter to
+
+start a new bulleted line.

+To create a list in a text
+
+box, follow these steps:
+
+ 1) Place the cursor in the
+
+text box.
+
+ 2) Click the Bullets On/Off
+
+button in the text
+
+formatting toolbar
+
+ 3) Type the text and press
+
+Enter to start a new
+
+bulleted line.
+
+36.
+
+Creating a new
+
+outline level
+
+ 1) If necessary, press Enter to
+
+begin a new line.
+
+ 2) Press Tab or click the
+
+indentation arrows in the text
+
+formatting toolbar. Each time
+
+you press Tab or click the
+
+right arrow, the line indents
+
+to the next outline level.
+
+Pressing Enter creates a new
+
+line at the same level as the
+
+previous one. To return to the
+
+previous level, press
+
+Shift+Tab or click the left
+
+arrow.
+
+37.
+
+Changing the appearance
+
+of the list
+
+For the entire list:
+
+1) Select the entire list or click on the gray
+
+border of the text box so that just the colored
+
+resizing handles are displayed.
+
+2) Select Format > Bullets and Numbering
+
+or click on the Bullets and Numbering icon
+
+on the text formatting toolbar.
+
+3) The Bullets and Numbering dialog contains
+
+five tabs: Bullets, Numbering type, Graphics,
+
+Position, and Customize.
+
+• If a bulleted list is needed, select the desired
+
+bullet style from the six default styles
+
+available on the Bullets page.
+
+• If a graphics style is needed, select one from
+
+those available on the Graphics page.
+
+• If a numbered list is needed, select one of
+
+the 6 default numbering styles on the
+
+Numbering type page
+
+38.
+
+Using Hyperlinks.
+
+ When
+
+inserting text (such as a website address or URL)
+
+that can be used as a hyperlink, Impress formats it
+
+automatically, creating the hyperlink and applying color
+
+and underlining. If you do not want Impress to do that,
+
+select Edit > Undo Insert from the menu bar or press
+
+Control+Z immediately after the formatting has been
+
+applied.
+
+ You can also insert hyperlinks manually.

+In the AutoLayout text boxes, promoting or demoting an item in the list corresponds to applying a different outline style, so the second outline level corresponds to Outline 2 style, the third to Outline 3 style and so on. As a consequence, a change in the level also produces other changes (for example font size, bullet type, and so on).

+## []( a presentation
+
+Designing and planning of a presentation is important. Slide appearance can be changed as the presentation is developed, but planning ahead saves time in the long run. Before a presentation is created, it is recommended to create an outline to determine some of the requirements for the appearance of the slides. For example:
+
+* What color combinations (background and text) look good and also be easy for an audience to read?
+
+* Would an image help an audience understand the contents better?
+
+* Is there any particular text and image that has to appear on all the slides? For example a company name and logo.
+
+* Would an audience benefit from having the slides numbered allowing quickly reference to a slide?
+
+* Is a background graphic or gradient required? If so, select something that does not interfere or clash with content, such as colors used in charts.
+
+* How many master slides are required?
+
+* Will one slide design suit all presentation content?
+
+## []( are master slides?
+
+A master slide is a slide that is used as the starting point for creating slides. It is similar to a page style in LibreOffice Writer as it controls the basic formatting of all slides based on it. A presentation can have more than one master slide.
+
+Master slides have a defined set of characteristics that are automatically placed onto a slide being created for a presentation. This may include, for example, background color, graphics, or gradients. Also objects (for example, logos, decorative lines), headers and footers, placement and size of text frames, and text formatting can all be included on a master slide.
+
+All characteristics of master slides are controlled by styles. The styles of any new slide created are inherited from the master slide from which it was created. In other words, the styles of the master slide are available and applied to all slides created from that master slide. Changing a style in a master slide results in changes to all the slides based on that master slide. It is, however, possible to modify each individual slide without affecting the master slide.
+
+Master slides have two types of styles associated with them: presentation styles and drawing styles. Presentation styles can be modified, but new presentation styles cannot be created. Drawing styles can be modified and new drawing styles can be created. For more information, see “Working with styles” below.
+
+Notes
+
+It is recommended to use master slides whenever possible. However, there are occasions where manual changes are required for a particular slide. For example, editing a slide to enlarge the chart area when the text and chart layout is used.
+
+## []( with master slides
+
+Impress comes with a collection of master slides and these are shown in the Master Slides deck of the Sidebar (Figure 1). This deck has three panels Used in This Presentation, Recently Used, and Available for Use. Click the expand marker next to the name of a panel to show master slide thumbnails, or click the collapse marker to collapse the panel and hide the thumbnails.
+
+Used in This Presentation
+
+Displays the master slides from a presentation template that are being used in the presentation that is being created.
+
+Recently Used
+
+Displays the master slides from presentation templates that have been recently used in a presentation.
+
+Available for Use
+
+Displays the master slides that from the default presentation templates that were installed with LibreOffice, or installed from other sources. For example, the presentation templates available on the LibreOffice website at For more information on presentation templates, see “Working with templates” below.
+
+If a new presentation is being created without using a template, then a default template and default master slide are available (see Chapter 1, Introducing Impress for more information). This default template and default master slide are a good starting point for creating presentations. An example of the default master slide is shown in Figure 2.

+9)Click OK to apply the selected master slide and close the Available Master Slides dialog.
+
+The following items can be changed on a master slide:
+
+* Background (color, gradient, hatching, or bitmap) — for more information, see “Selecting and applying backgrounds” below.
+
+* Background objects (for example, a logo or decorative graphics) — for more information, see “Adding images” below; Chapter 4, Adding and Formatting Pictures; Chapter 5, Managing Graphic Objects; and Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects.
+
+* Size and placement of default frames for slide titles and content — for more information, see ��Adding text and fields” below.
+
+* Text attributes for the main text area and notes — for more information, see “Adding text and fields” below and Chapter 3, Adding and Formatting Text.
+
+* Size, placement, and contents of header and footer elements to appear on every slide — for more information, see “Adding text and fields” below and Chapter 3, Adding and Formatting Text.
+
+### [](
+
+1)Select View > Master Slide on the Menu bar. This also opens the Master View toolbar.
+
+2)Select a master slide for editing in the Slides pane so that it appears in the Workspace (Figure 7).
+
+3)Go to Slide > Slide Properties on the Menu bar or right-click in the Workspace and select Slide Properties from the context menu to open the Slide Properties dialog (Figure 8).
+
+4)Use the various options in the Slide, Background, Transparency, and Theme pages in the Slide Properties dialog to make changes to the master slide format.
+
+Figure 7: Example of Master Slide View
+
+Image 7: Image7
+
+Figure 8: Slide Properties dialog — Slide page
+
+Image 8: Image8
+
+5)Click OK to save the changes and close the Slide Properties dialog.
+
+6)Select an object on the master slide, then right-click on the object to open a context menu.
+
+7)Select one of the options from the context menu to edit the object. Selecting an option may open another context menu, a dialog, an application or file browser window to make the necessary changes to a selected object.
+
+8)Click on Close Master View on the Master View toolbar or go to View > Normal on the Menu bar to exit from editing master slides.
+
+9)Save the presentation file before continuing.
+
+Note
+
+Any changes made to a master slide in Master Slide view appear on all slides using the same master slide. Always make sure to close Master Slide view and return to Normal view before working on any of the presentation slides.
+
+### []( formatting
+
+Any changes made directly or manually to any object on a slide in Normal view (for example, changes to bullet point style, color of the title area, and so on) are not overridden by subsequent changes made to the master slide used for that slide. However, where it is desirable to revert the formatting of a directly formatted object on a slide to the style defined in the master slide, select the object on the slide and use one of the following methods to change the formatting:
+
+* Go to Format > Clear Direct Formatting on the Menu bar.
+
+* Right-click on an object and select Clear Direct Formatting from the context menu.
+
+The title and text boxes inherit the properties of a master slide, but if the position of these text boxes in the master slide has changed, the layout may appear corrupted. Some of the layout elements may have to be horizontally and/or vertically repositioned on a slide.
+
+## []( and applying backgrounds
+
+Backgrounds can be applied to a number of elements in Impress (for example: slide, default text area, image and so on). The procedure is similar when applying a background to a master slide, a slide, or an object on a slide.
+
+### []( slide properties
+
+1)Select View > Master Slide on the Menu bar. This also opens the Master View toolbar.
+
+2)Select a master slide in the Slides pane so that it appears in the Workspace.
+
+3)Go to Slide > Slide Properties on the Menu bar or right-click in the Workspace and select Slide Properties from the context menu to open the Slide Properties dialog.
+
+4)Select the Background tab to open the Background page on the Slide Properties dialog (Figure 9).
+
+5)Select the type of background required from Color, Gradient, Image, Pattern and Hatch. See Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects for more information on how to use the options available for each type of background selected.
+
+Figure 9: Slide Properties dialog — Background Color page
+
+Image 9: Image9
+
+Figure 10: Styles deck on Sidebar
+
+Image 10: Image10
+
+6)When satisfied with the slide background, click OK to save the changes and close the Slide Properties dialog.
+
+Tip
+
+Custom fills can be created for each type of background. See Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects for more information on creating custom fills for each type of background.
+
+### []( background style
+
+2)Select a master slide in the Slides pane so that it appears in the Workspace.
+
+3)Click on Styles on the Sidebar to open the Styles deck.
+
+4)Click on Presentation Styles on the Styles deck to open the Presentation Styles list (Figure 10).
+
+5)Right-click on Background style and select Modify from the context menu to open the Background dialog. This dialog only has an Area tab and offers the same options as the Background page in the Slide Properties dialog.
+
+6)Select the type of background required from Color, Gradient, Image, Pattern and Hatch. See Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects for more information on how to use the options available for each type of background selected.
+
+7)When satisfied with the background, click OK to save the changes and close the Background dialog.
+
+## []( images
+
+When the same image appears on every slide of a presentation, for example a company logo, the recommended solution is to use a master slide. This saves time creating a presentation and allows modification or repositioning of the image on all slides. If the same image is added to each slide manually, modification and repositioning have to be carried out on each individual slide in a presentation which may create errors. In addition to images, other objects can be added to the background, for example decorative lines, text, shapes, and company logos.
+
+LibreOffice supports a large number of image and graphic formats. For more information on working with images, see Chapter 4, Adding and Formatting Pictures; Chapter 5, Managing Graphic Objects; and Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects.
+
+For example, one of the most common actions in preparing a presentation is to add an image to the master slide. To insert an image already available on the computer, follow these steps:
+
+2)Select the master slide where the image is to be added.
+
+3)Select Insert > Image on the Menu bar to open the file browser.
+
+4)Navigate to the directory where the image is located and select it.
+
+5)Click Open to close the file browser and the image is placed centrally into the master slide.
+
+6)Modify and/or reposition the image on the master slide as required.
+
+7)Right-click on the image and select Arrange > Send to Back from the context menu. This moves the image to the background so that any information added to the slide when creating a presentation appears over the background image.
+
+LibreOffice can insert an image as a link to a file rather than embedding it in a presentation. This is useful when a presentation is not intended for distribution onto other computers and remains in the same directory structure and computer. For example, creating a presentation on a notebook computer to give a presentation to a group of clients. However, if the presentation file is to be distributed to other computers, the image must be embedded to avoid the “missing image” syndrome when the presentation is used on a different computer.
+
+## []( text areas
+
+When a master slide is opened for editing, it contains five default text areas, as shown in Figure 2above.
+
+Title area for AutoLayouts.
+
+Object area for AutoLayouts.
+
+Date area.
+
+Footer area.
+
+Slide number area.
+
+### []( positioning and resizing
+
+Click in an area to display the selection handles around the text area. Use the selection handles to modify the size and position of a text area.
+
+1)Select the text area for repositioning so that the selection handles are visible.
+
+2)Move the cursor toward the border of the text area, not on a selection handle, and the cursor changes shape. Normally this is a clenched hand, but the shape is dependent on the computer setup and operating system.
+
+3)Click, hold, and drag the text area to the required position. Release when the text area is in position.
+
+4)Position the cursor over a left or right selection handle and the cursor changes shape.
+
+5)Click, hold, and drag the left or right selection handle to change the width of the text area. Release when the text area is at the required width.
+
+6)Position the cursor over a top or bottom selection handle and the cursor changes shape.
+
+7)Click, hold, and drag the top or bottom selection handle to change the height of the default text area. Release when the text area is at the required height.
+
+8)Position the cursor over a corner selection handle and the cursor changes shape.
+
+9)Click, hold, and drag the corner selection handle to change both the height and width of the default text area at the same time. Release when the required width and height for the text area are reached.
+
+The cursor shape usually changes when positioned over a selection handle giving a clear visual indication of how the text area shape is affected when a selection handle is moved.
+
+Tip
+
+Keep the Shift key pressed while moving a selection handle to maintain the width and height dimension ratio of the text area.
+
+### []( positioning and resizing
+
+To accurately control the shape, size and position of a text area, it is recommended to use the Position and Size dialog, or the Position and Size panel in the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+1)Select the text area by clicking on its border.
+
+2)Use one of the following methods to access position and size options for a text area:
+
+* Go to Format > Object and Shape > Position and Size on the Menu bar to open the Position and Size dialog (Figure 11).
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut F4 to open the Position and Size dialog.
+
+* Right-click on the border of the text area and select Position and Size from the context menu to open the Position and Size dialog.
+
+* Click on Properties on the Sidebar to open the Properties deck, then open the Position and Size panel (Figure 12).
+
+Figure 11: Position and Size dialog
+
+Image 11: Image11
+
+Figure 12: Position and Size panel in Properties deck on Sidebar
+
+Image 12: Image12
+
+Only short descriptions of the most important functions are provided below. For more information on Position and Size options see the Draw Guide.
+
+Position
+
+Specifies the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) position of the text area. The values represent the distance of the selected base point from the default position at the top left corner of the slide.
+
+Base point
+
+Available in the Position and Size dialog only. Allows selection of a point on the rectangular area surrounding an object and is used when repositioning an object. The default setting for the Base point is the top left corner means that the top left corner of the object is used to reposition the rectangular area.
+
+Size
+
+Specifies the width and height of the text area.
+
+Base point
+
+Available in the Position and Size dialog only. Allows selection of a point on the rectangular text area that does not move while resizing. The default setting of top left corner means that the position of the top left corner of the text area does not change during resizing.
+
+Rotation
+
+Rotates the text area. For example, after positioning a footer text area at the side of a slide then rotate the footer text area by 90 degrees to create a more modern slide layout. In general, it is preferable to use only horizontal or vertical orientation for ease of editing, although the program does not impose restrictions on the values that can be used.
+
+Slant & Corner Radius
+
+Adds a corner radius to a text box border. A corner radius is only visible if a visible line style is selected. Slant options are only available for images or shapes and not text boxes.
+
+### [](
+
+Change the type of area fill used for backgrounds in a default text area using one of the following methods. The options available depend on the type of area fill selected. See Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects for more information on changing backgrounds.

+Specifies the color used for when a hyperlink has been selected and followed.
+
+## []( with styles
+
+A style is a set of formats that are applied to selected elements such as slides, text, lists, frames, borders, lines and area fills in a presentation. Applying a style means applying a group of formats at the same time providing a consistent look to a presentation. For example, to manually change an attribute on the same object type on every slide in a presentation is time consuming and prone to errors. Using styles reduces time and provides greater accuracy.
+
+Impress has two types of styles available for formatting text and graphic objects – presentation styles and drawing styles.
+
+* For information on formatting text, see Chapter 3, Adding and Formatting Text.
+
+* For information on formatting graphic objects, see Chapter 6, Formatting Graphic Objects and the Draw Guide.
+
+* More information on styles used in LibreOffice can be found in the Getting Started Guide.
+
+The presence of text and title styles both in the presentation and drawing styles may seem confusing. This duplication is required because Impress uses special text boxes (auto layout boxes) when adding structured text to slides using presentation styles. The title and other text styles in drawing styles are used on any other text boxes, or text associated with shapes or lines.
+
+## []( styles
+
+Presentation styles in Impress are used when creating a presentation using one of the Impress slide layouts. These presentation styles are divided into four categories.
+
+Background and Background objects
+
+Used to format objects on the default master slide such as icons, decorative lines, and shapes.
+
+Notes
+
+Formats the text used in presentation notes.
+
+Outline 1 thru Outline 9
+
+Used for the different levels of the outline to which they belong. For example, Outline 2 is used for the sub-points of Outline 1, Outline 3 is used for the sub-points of Outline 2 and so on.
+
+Subtitle and Title
+
+Formats the text used for any titles or subtitles used on slides.
+
+As with the Heading styles in Writer, the Outline styles in Impress are hierarchically linked. For example, changing an attribute in the Outline 1 style cascades through all the other styles for Outline levels.
+
+The default master slide and slide layouts in Impress use auto layout boxes. Presentation styles can only be used within these auto layout boxes. An example of text using these presentation styles is shown in Figure 2above.
+
+Presentation styles cannot be created or deleted, but can be formatted, modified or updated to the presentation requirements. Also, the presentation style used for an object cannot be changed to another presentation style. For example, text using Outline 2 style cannot be changed to Outline 3 style.
+
+Normal view is used for changing outline levels using the Tab key or Shift+Tab key combination, or the Promote and Demote tools on the Outline toolbar. See Chapter 3, Adding and Formatting Text for more information.
+
+Any text added to a slide using text tools is automatically placed in a standard text box and allocated the Default Drawing Style from Drawing Styles. For more information on formatting text, see Chapter 3, Adding and Formatting Text.
+
+## []( styles
+
+Drawing styles in Impress define the characteristics of graphic and text objects placed on a slide. These styles include attributes for line, area, shadowing, transparency, text, connectors and dimensioning.
+
+For example, when creating organization charts in a presentation, create objects with a consistent appearance, such as line style, font type, shadow, and so on. The easiest way to achieve this is to use a drawing style for the objects and apply it to each object. The benefit is that if there is a change to the background color of objects for example, all that is required is to modify the style rather than each individual object.
+
+Drawing styles included with Impress cannot be deleted, but can be formatted, modified, and updated. New or custom drawing styles can be created, see “Custom styles” below. Any custom style created is only available in the presentation where it was created.
+
+Use one of the following methods to access styles available in Impress.
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut F11 (macOS ⌘+T) and open the Styles deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Go to Format > Styles on the Menu bar and select an option from the submenu that opens.
+
+* Click on Show the Styles Sidebar (F11) (macOS Show the Styles Sidebar (⌘+T)) on the Line and Filling toolbar and open the Styles deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Click on Styles on the Sidebar to open the Styles deck.
+

+
+## []( formatting
+
+Direct formatting overrides any formatting applied to an object when a style is used. Direct formatting cannot be removed from an object by applying a style to it. To remove any direct formatting, select the object so that the selection handles are visible, then use one of the following methods to clear any direct formatting:
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+M (macOS Shift+M).
+
+* Go to Format > Clear Direct Formatting in the Menu bar.
+
+* If the object is a text object, highlight the text and click on Clear Direct Formatting on the Text Formatting toolbar.
+
+* If the object is a text object, highlight the text, right-click on the selected text and select Clear Direct Formatting from the context menu.
+
+Impress styles support linking or inheritance. This allows a style to be linked to another (parent) style so that it inherits all the formatting settings of the parent, creating families of styles.
+
+For example, for multiple boxes that are identically formatted, but only differ in color, define a style for the box including borders, area fill, font, and so on. Then create a number of styles that are hierarchically dependent, but differ only in the fill color attribute. For example, if the font size or the thickness of the border needs to be changed, only change the parent style and all the other linked (child) styles change accordingly.
+
+## []( styles keyboard shortcuts
+
+LibreOffice provides a set of predefined keyboard shortcuts allowing quick application of styles while working with a presentation. These shortcuts can be redefined or custom shortcuts created. For more information, see Appendix A, Keyboard Shortcuts and the Getting Started Guide.
+
+## []( with templates
+
+A template is used as a starting point when creating presentations. For example, create a template for business presentations so that new presentations have the company logo, name and information on the first slide and the remaining presentation slides only show the company logo and name. For more information on templates and how to use them, see the Getting Started Guide.
+
+Templates can contain anything that presentations can contain, such as text, graphics, a set of styles, and user-specific setup information such as measurement units, language, default printer, and toolbar and menu customization.
+
+All document types created using LibreOffice are based on templates. Specific templates can be created for any document type (text, spreadsheet, drawing, presentation). If a template is not specified when creating a new document, then the default template for that type of document is used. The default templates are installed with LibreOffice and can be changed, see “Setting default template” below for more information.
+
+Impress normally starts with the Select a Template dialog (Figure 22), unless one of the options Start with Template Selection in the Options LibreOffice dialog, or Show this dialog at startup in the Template dialog have been turned off.
+
+Figure 22: Select a Template dialog
+
+Image 22: Image22
+
+When creating a presentation and the template dialog is active, several templates are available as a starting point for a presentation. If Select a Template dialog is turned off for new presentations, LibreOffice uses the LibreOffice default template for presentations. For more information on the presentation default template, see “Setting default template” below.
+
+## []( presentation templates
+
+Impress comes with a set of predefined templates. These templates only contain backgrounds and background objects, providing a starting point to create presentations, or templates.
+
+Any templates created are located in the My Templates folder after the template has been saved as a presentation template. These templates appear in the LibreOffice startup window and the Select a Template dialog the next time LibreOffice is started.
+
+Use one of the following methods to create a new presentation using a template:
+
+* Click on the triangle ▼ on the right of Templates in LibreOffice start up window and then select Impress Templates from the context menu to display the available presentation templates. Select a template and a new presentation opens.
+
+* Go to File > New > Templates on the Menu bar to open the Templates dialog (this dialog is similar to the Select a Template dialog). Select Presentations from the Filter drop‑down list to display presentation templates. Select a presentation template and click OK. The dialog closes and a new presentation opens.
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+N (macOS ⌘+Shift+N) to open the Templates dialog (this dialog is similar to the Select a Template dialog). Select Presentations from the Filter drop-down list to display presentation templates. Select a presentation template and click OK. The dialog closes and a new presentation opens.
+
+## []( templates
+
+1)Open a presentation or presentation template as a starting point for a new template.
+
+2)Add and format the content and styles as required for the new presentation template.
+
+3)Go to File > Templates > Save As Template on the Menu bar to open the Save as Template dialog (Figure 23).
+
+Figure 23: Save As Template dialog
+
+Image 23: Image23
+
+4)Enter a name for the new template in the Enter Template Name text box.
+
+5)Select a template category for the new template.
+
+6)If required, select the option Set as default template to use as the default template the next time LibreOffice is opened and no template is selected. See “Setting default template” below for more information.
+
+7)Click on Save to save the new template and close the Save as Template dialog. The template appears in the LibreOffice startup window and the Select a Template dialog the next time LibreOffice is started.
+
+When saving a new template, it is important to save the template in one of the categories given in the Save as Template dialog. This allows LibreOffice to find the new template and use it for creating new presentations.
+
+## []( default template
+
+If a new presentation is being created and no template is selected, LibreOffice creates the presentation from the default Impress template. This is normally a blank template. However, any presentation template can be set as the default template. The template has to be located in a category displayed in the Save as Template dialog so that LibreOffice can find it. The default template can always be reset to the original LibreOffice default template.
+
+### []( default template
+
+1)Go to File > New > Templates or File > Templates > Manage Templates on the Menu bar to open the Templates dialog. The Templates dialog is similar to the Select a Template dialog (Figure 22).

+
+5)Go to File > Save on the Menu bar or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+S (macOS ⌘+S) to save the changes.
+
+6)Close the template or create a presentation using the edited template.
+
+Any presentation created from the template before editing can be updated to show the changed template settings the next time the presentation is opened. A confirmation dialog opens asking if the updated styles are to be used or keep the old styles. If keep the old styles is selected, then the presentation continues to use the old styles without any confirmation.
+
+When editing templates, it is recommended NOT to edit and save templates supplied and installed with LibreOffice. Editing and saving these LibreOffice templates may cause problems with presentations that already use one of these templates.
+
+LibreOffice can only use templates that are in LibreOffice template categories (template folders). New LibreOffice template categories can be created and used to organize LibreOffice templates. For example, separate template categories for different projects or clients. Templates can also be imported and exported.
+
+The location of folders used LibreOffice template categories varies with computer operating systems. To learn where the template folders are stored on a computer, go to Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Paths (macOS LibreOffice > Preferences > LibreOffice > Paths).

+
+I know we have focused a lot on using Styles to control the formatting of text, and there is a reason for that. As I have said so often, uniformity of appearance is an important part of a professional-looking presentation, and that is best done by using the Presentation and Drawing Object styles appropriately. But there is a place for all of the other tools Impress has, and I want to go over some of them now before we move on to other topics.
+
+You can add text by typing it in, of course, and in many cases you will want to use the Styles that are available to you. To do this, just open your Styles & Formatting window in the right-hand Sidebar by clicking the appropriate icon in the far-right column. If you are typing into a slide using AutoLayout boxes, the styles are already applied to the contents of those boxes. But on a blank slide you can add a Text Box and use the Drawing Object Styles. Just type in the text you want to use, select it, and double-click on the style you want to apply. It is as simple as that. And changing styles is just double-clicking on a different style to replace what you had with the new style.
+
+But often you will want to paste in text from another source instead of typing it in, and this is where you need to think about what you are doing. Text that comes from another source may already have all kinds of formatting applied to it. This is particularly true of text copied from a Web page, which will have HTML formatting applied to it. In general, the formatting it brings with it is not what you want. You could deal with this in several ways, but I think the simplest is to lose the formatting altogether and reduce it to plain text which you can then apply your own formatting to. To do this, if you like to use keyboard shortcuts, you may know that the paste command is generally Control+V (in Windows and Linux) or Command+V (in Macintosh). To get your paste to remove all formatting just add in the Shift key, as in Control+Shift+V to get unformatted text in your paste. You can also get there through the graphical interface if you prefer by going to the Edit menu and selecting Paste Special, and if you do this you will see that the keyboard equivalent in simply Control+Shift+V. Finally, on the Standard toolbar there is a Paste icon which looks like a clipboard with a sheet of paper coming off of it. If you have text on your clipboard that has formatting, you will get a drop-down next to the Paste icon that will give you the option of pasting unformatted text, or instead pasting it with all of its formatting intact. But note that if you don’t have any formatted text on the clipboard you won’t see the dropdown, so if you have Impress open to follow along, take a moment to copy some text from a web page first before you investigate this option.
+
+### The Text Formatting Toolbar
+
+Next we want to take a look at the Text Formatting Toolbar. If it is not displayed on the screen, you will need to enable it first. Deciding which toolbars you want to have open is a personal choice, and each one takes up some real estate on the screen. If you do most of your presentations by typing in text into slides with AutoLayout boxes (and that is probably 90% of what I do), you may think you really don’t need to have this toolbar displayed all of the time. But when you need it it can come in handy. To enable the display, go to View–>Toolbars, and put a checkmark in Text Formatting. It may appear to the right of one of the toolbars you already have, but you can click-and-drag all toolbars to new positions as you desire.

+
+This is pretty standard. First there is the Font selector, followed by the Size selector. Then you have the usual Bold, Italic, and Underline, and then a button for Shadow. You would not see this in Writer because there is very little call for it there (in Writer you would need to select the text, and the go to the font Effects to add it). In a graphical program like Impress, though, it is something you would naturally use often enough to make putting a button there useful. Then you have the usual text alignment buttons for Left, Centered, Right, and Justified, followed by a button to turn on Bullets. They are on by default in most AutoLayout boxes, but if you are in a Text box you need to be able to turn them on.
+
+Next are some extremely useful buttons for working with Outlines, and if you recall from our earlier discussion Impress uses bullet lists that are essentially structured as Outlines. In fact, you can create an outline in Writer and generate an Impress presentation from it, and the Presentation styles for bullet lists in AutoLayout boxes are called Outline styles. And this makes these buttons very useful indeed, both for working with bullet lists in AutoLayout boxes and in Text boxes. They let you Promote, Demote, and Move your lists. First you have the arrows that point to the left or to the right. These are the Promote and Demote buttons. These arrows are grayed out in general, but when you have selected a bullet point an arrow will become more visible if there is something you can do. For instance, if you have a “top-level” bullet point there is no way to Promote it to a higher level, so when you select it only the Demote arrow (pointing to the right) will become more visible. But select a second- or third-level bullet point and both arrows will be more visible because you can do either a Promote or a Demote.
+
+The Up and Down arrows help you to move bullet points up or down. Just select a bullet point and click the Up arrow and it will move up a space. As before, only the available options will appear, so if you are already at the top only the Down arrow will become more visible. But if you are in the middle of the list both the Up and Down arrows will be more visible. You can also use arrows to move groups of bullet points together. For example, you have a bullet point, and several sub-points under it, and you decide they need to be moved up. Just select all of them as a group, and click the appropriate arrow. These arrows are handy both when creating slides and when editing and refining slides.
+
+Next are the Increase and Decrease Font buttons. These change your sizes by one “notch” as defined in the Font Size selector. If you look at this, you might see that your slide Title is set to 40 points by default (this is controlled by the Presentation style in most cases). But in the Font selector you can see that one notch lower is 36, and one notch higher is 44. So if you select the Title and click the Increase button once, it will go to 44 since that is the next available size. This is slightly faster than using the Font Size selector.
+
+The next three Buttons are for Character, Paragraph, and Bullets and Numbering Properties, which we will examine in the following sections, and finally, a Font Color button. As we discussed previously, in a graphical program like Impress font colors become important in a way they never would in a program like Writer.
+
+### Character Properties
+
+Clicking the Character icon opens a Properties window:
+
+Image 2: Character Properties Window in LibreOffice Impress
+

+
+This should look fairly familiar to anyone who has been following these tutorials from the beginning. As I have stated previously, LibreOffice uses standard windows over and over, and the developers are loathe to reinvent the wheel. The thing you need to understand is that this window is used to set properties for the characters in your text. A different set of properties is available in the Paragraph properties. This window has three tabs: Font, Font Effects, and Position. The first tab is something you have seen over and over, and lets you select your Font Family, Style, and Size. The second tab, Font Effects, lets you add things like Relief, Shadow, Outlining, and Strikethrough. The last tab, Position, lets you raise the character to a Superscript, lower it to a subscript, rotate it, or change the spacing (this is known technically as _kerning_, and is really a topic for an extended discussion of typography, but it means the spacing between letters.) In Writer some of these settings are in the Paragraph-level properties, but in Impress they are separated and placed in Character properties.
+
+### Paragraph Properties
+
+When we talk of Paragraphs in this context, we don’t mean what is technically a paragraph as your language teacher might have taught you in school. We mean a paragraph-level object, and we discussed this in some detail previously in the tutorial _LibreOffice Writer Paragraph Styles – What is a paragraph?_. So if you are not clear on this, please read that article for more information. Here, we mean objects like Titles, Sub-titles, Bullet Points, and occasionally even actual paragraphs, to name a few. Clicking on the Paragraph button brings up its own Properties window:
+
+Image 3: Paragraph Properties Window in LibreOffice Impress
+

+
+Again, we have three tabs. The first, Indents and Spacing, is the usual place for putting in an indent (including a first-line indent for actual paragraphs), for putting in space above or below the paragraph object, or for adjusting the line spacing (single-spaced, double-spaced, etc.). The second tab is called Tabs and is for setting the properties for a tab, such as position, left or right alignment, and which fill character if any you want to use. The last tab, Alignment, is the usual setting for Left, Right, Center, and Justified, as well as vertical alignment of text.
+
+### Bullets and Numbering
+
+This w indow lets you set the properties for bullet and number lists, and has four tabs:
+
+Image 4: Bullets and Numbering Properties Window in LibreOffice Impress
+
+Bullets and Numbering Properties Window in LibreOffice Impress
+
+The first lets you select a character to use for your bullets in your bullet lists. the second lets you use an image instead of a font character. The third, Position, lets you set the position of each level in your bullet lists, while the fourth, Customize, lets you do things like make each level different (you could, for instance, use this to put a numbered list under a bullet, or vice-versa).
+
+And where are the Numbering options? By default you don’t see them because most of the time people are working with Bullet lists in Impress. But if you go to the Format menu and select Bullets and Numbering, you get a five tab window that includes Numbering. And if you use this to start a numbered list by clicking on a selection in the Numbering tab, that fifth tab will then be available from the button. It is like you needed to first tell Impress that this would be a feature you would be using before Impress would make it available.
+
+### Final notes on Text Formatting
+
+A few things to note here. First, our description of the possible formatting options was not in-depth, because we have discussed all of this previously in our tutorials on Writer. LibreOffice is a unified suite, which means that features introduced in one program will be borrowed for other programs as needed instead of redone from scratch. As we saw previously, the graphical components of Impress are mostly taken from Draw, while the text formatting options are quite reasonably taken from Writer, which is the main program for manipulating text. So if you want to see more details on Character, Paragraph, and Bullet and Numbering options, you should refer to the appropriate tutorials in the Writer section. I have written detailed descriptions of Paragraph styles, Tab styles, Character styles, Bullet styles, and Numbered styles that cover all of this in great depth, and I don’t want to repeat myself any more than the LibreOffice developers want to.
+
+Second, the techniques discussed here are for those occasions when you are not controlling your text via the Presentation styles or the Drawing Object styles. If I plan to use the same settings again, I generally find it worth while to take the time to create a style and save it in an appropriate template. In the long run this saves me time and effort, even if it involves a little more up front.
+
+So, with that, we move on to our next topic, Multimedia!

+## []( is Impress?
+
+Impress is the presentation (slide show) program included in LibreOffice. Impress creates presentations in the ODP format, which can be opened by other presentation software or can be exported in different presentation formats.
+
+You can create slides that contain many different elements, including text, bulleted and numbered lists, tables, charts, and a wide range of graphic objects such as clipart, drawings, and photographs. Impress also includes a spelling checker, a thesaurus, and styles for drawings, text, and backgrounds.
+
+This chapter introduces some features of Impress and does not attempt to cover all of the features available in Impress that can be used to create presentations. See the Impress Guide and LibreOffice Help for more information.
+
+To use Impress for more than very simple slide shows requires some knowledge of the elements which the slides contain. Slides that contain text use styles to determine the appearance of that text. Creating drawings in Impress is similar to the Draw component of LibreOffice. For more information, refer to Chapter 3, Using Styles and Templates, and Chapter 7, Getting Started with Draw, in this guide. It is recommended to consult the Draw Guide for more details on how to use the drawing tools.
+
+## []( Impress
+
+Start Impress using any of the methods described in Chapter 1, Introducing LibreOffice. The main Impress window opens and, by default, the Select a Template dialog (Figure 1) is displayed.
+
+Figure 1: Select a Template dialog
+
+Image 1: Select a Template dialog
+
+Templates included with Impress are designed to fit the two standard sizes of presentation slides: 4:3 and 16:9 ratios. However, templates will adapt to other available sizes, which can be selected by going to Slide > Properties > Paper Format on the Menu bar or Format in the Slide panel in the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+Tip
+
+To start Impress without the Select a Template dialog, deselect Show this dialog at startup in the lower left of the dialog.
+
+In Windows or Linux, go to Tools > Options > LibreOffice Impress > General on the Menu bar and deselect Start with Template Selection under New Document.
+
+In macOS, go to LibreOffice > Preferences > LibreOffice Impress > General on the Menu bar and deselect Start with Template Selection under New Document.
+
+## []( Impress window
+
+The main Impress window (Figure 2) has three main sections: Slides pane, Workspace, and Sidebar. At the top is the Menu bar and toolbars. Toolbars can be displayed, hidden, locked in position, or floating during the creation of a presentation.
+
+Tip
+
+You can close the Slides pane or Sidebar by clicking the X in the upper right corner of each pane or go to View > Slide Pane or View > Sidebar on the Menu bar to deselect the pane. To reopen a pane, select View > Slide Pane or View > Sidebar on the Menu bar.
+

+
+Image 2: Impress main window
+
+To maximize the Workspace area, click on the Hide/Show marker in the middle of the vertical separator line (highlighted in Figure 2). Using the Hide/Show marker hides, but does not close, the Slides pane or Sidebar. To restore a pane, click again on its Hide/Show marker.
+
+## []( bar
+
+The Impress Menu bar, at the top of the main window, provides several menus common to all LibreOffice modules. In each LibreOffice module, the commands may differ for File, Edit, View, Insert, Format, Tools, Window, and Help. Impress has two extra menus for Slide and Slide Show. When a menu item is selected, a submenu drops down to show commands. The Menu bar can be customized; see Chapter 14, Customizing LibreOffice.
+
+The Workspace (normally the center of the main window) opens in Normal view. It has four standard views of Normal, Outline, Notes, and Slide Sorter. These views are selected using tabs at the top of the Workspace. For more information, see “Workspace views” on page 1.
+
+## []( pane
+
+The Slides pane contains thumbnail images of slides in a presentation in the order in which the slides are shown. Clicking on a slide image in the Slides pane selects it and places the slide in the Workspace where you can make changes to the displayed slide.
+
+* To display or close the Slides pane, go to View > Slide Pane on the Menu bar.
+
+* To close the Slides pane, click on the X in the right top corner of the Slides Pane.
+
+* To display or hide the Slides pane, use the Hide/Show marker on the left of the Workspace.
+
+You can carry out several additional operations on one or more slides in the Slides pane. These additional operations are available from a context menu when you right-click in the Slides pane.
+
+* Add new slides to a presentation.
+
+* Hide a slide so that it will not show in a presentation.
+
+* Delete a slide from a presentation.
+
+* Rename a slide.
+
+* Duplicate a slide (copy and paste).
+
+* Move a slide to another position in the slide order by dragging and dropping it to the desired position.
+
+You can also carry out the following operations, although there are more efficient methods than using the Slides pane:
+
+* Change the slide transition following the selected slide or after each slide in a group.
+
+* Change the sequence of slides in the presentation.
+
+* Change the slide design.
+
+* Change slide layout for a group of slides simultaneously.
+
+The Impress Sidebar, normally located on the right side of the Workspace, is similar to the Sidebar in the other LibreOffice modules. It consists of seven decks, as described below. To open a deck, use one of the following methods:
+
+* Click on its icon on the right side of the Sidebar.
+
+* Click on Sidebar Settings at the top of the Sidebar and select a deck from the drop‑down list.
+
+* Go to View on the Menu bar and select the deck required from the drop-down menu.
+
+### [](
+
+The Properties deck has nine panels, allowing you to change the slide layout and format any objects on a slide.
+
+* When a slide is selected and appears in the Workspace, the Properties deck opens with the Slide and Layouts panels available.
+
+* When an object on a slide is selected, the Properties deck has the following panels available: Character, Paragraph, Area, Lists, Shadow, Line, and Position and Size.
+
+### [](
+
+On the Styles deck, you can apply drawing and presentation styles to a selected object, create new styles for drawing and presentation, and modify both types of styles. When you save changes to a style, the changes are applied to all of the elements formatted with that style in the presentation. See “Styles” on page 1.
+
+On the Gallery deck, you can insert an object into a presentation either as a copy or as a link. A copy of an object is independent of the original object. Changes to the original object have no effect on the copy. A link remains dependent on the original object. Changes to the original object are also reflected in the link. See the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+The Navigator deck displays all objects contained in a presentation. It provides a convenient way to move between slides in a presentation or select an object on a slide. It is recommended to give slides and objects in a presentation meaningful names so that you can easily identify them when using the Navigator. See the Impress Guide for more information.

+The Shapes deck provides quick selection of most items that are available on the Drawing toolbar: Lines and Arrows, Curves and Polygons, Connectors, Basic Shapes, Symbol Shapes, Block Arrows, Flowchart, Callouts, Stars and Banners, and 3D Objects.
+
+### []( transition
+
+The Slide Transition deck provides a selection of slide transitions available in Impress, transition speed, automatic or manual transition, and how long a selected slide is shown (automatic transition only). See “Slide transition” on page 1.
+
+The Animation deck provides an easy way to add, change, or remove animations to different elements or objects on a slide and how they appear during a slide show. See “Animation effects” on page 1.
+
+### []( slides
+
+Using the Master Slides deck, you can select the slide design for a presentation. Impress includes several designs of master slides. The default master slide is blank, but the remaining master slides have backgrounds and styled text. See “Working with master slides” on page 1.
+
+Rulers are positioned on the upper and left-hand sides of the Workspace. If they are not visible, go to View > Rulers on the Menu bar. The rulers show the size of a selected object on the slide using double lines (highlighted in Figure 3). You can also use the rulers to manage object handles and guide lines when positioning objects.
+
+To change the measurement units of the rulers, right-click on a ruler and select the measurement unit from the drop-down list, as shown in Figure 4 for the horizontal ruler. The horizontal and vertical rulers can be set to different measurement units.

+
+* When no object is selected, the position numbers show the current position (X and Y coordinates) of the mouse cursor.
+
+* When an object is selected and being resized with the mouse, the object size numbers show the size of the object (width and height).
+
+* If an object is selected, the position numbers shows X and Y coordinates of the upper‑left corner and the object size number pair displays the size of the object. These numbers do not relate to the object itself, but to the selection outline, which is the smallest possible rectangle that can contain the visible parts of the object.
+
+* When an object is selected, clicking in either of these areas opens the Position and Size dialog.
+
+Fit slide
+
+When this icon is clicked on, the slide in the workspace zooms to fit in the Workspace.
+
+Many toolbars can be used during slide creation. To display or hide them, go to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar and select them in the submenu. For more information on toolbars and how to use them, see Chapter 1, Introducing LibreOffice, and the Impress Guide.
+
+The icons used on toolbars vary depending on the computer operating system and the selection of icon size and style in Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View.
+
+## []( views
+
+The Impress workspace has four standard views selected using tabs: Normal, Outline, Notes, and Slide Sorter. These tabs are normally displayed at the top of the Workspace. If the tabs are not displayed, then go to View > Views Tab Bar on the Menu bar. You can also select different workspace views by going to View on the Menu bar and selecting a view from the drop-down menu. Each of the workspace views is designed to ease the completion of certain tasks.
+
+Each workspace view displays a different set of toolbars when selected. To customize these toolbar sets, go to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar, then check or uncheck the toolbars you want to add or remove.
+
+## []( view
+
+Normal view is the main view for creating individual slides in a presentation. In Normal view you can design and add slides, add and format any text or graphics, and add any animation effects to text or graphics.
+
+To place a slide in Normal view of the Workspace, either click on the slide thumbnail in the Slides pane or click on the slide name in the Navigator.
+
+## []( view
+
+Outline view (Figure 6) contains all the slides of the presentation in their numbered sequence. It shows topic titles, bulleted lists, and numbered lists for each slide in outline format. Only the text contained in the default text boxes in each slide is shown. If you have added text boxes or graphic objects to the slides, then these objects are not displayed. Slide names are not included.
+
+Figure 6: Example of Outline view in Workspace

+
+Image 7: Outline toolbar
+
+* Use Outline view for the following tasks:
+
+* Make changes in the text of a slide:
+
+* Add or delete text in a slide as in Normal view.
+
+* Move a paragraph in a slide up or down by using the movement arrows on the Outline toolbar (Figure 7).
+
+* Change the outline level of a paragraph in a slide using the left and right arrow buttons on the Outline toolbar.
+
+* Compare slides with in an outline. If it is noticed in an outline that another slide is required, create it directly in Outline view, or return to Normal view to create it.
+
+Use Notes view (Figure 8) to add notes to a slide. These notes are not seen when the presentation is shown to an audience using an external display connected to a computer. Click on the words Click to add Notes and begin typing.
+
+You can resize the Click to add Notes text box using the resizing handles which appear when you click on the border of the box. You can also move or change the size of the box by clicking and dragging on the box border.
+
+When text is inserted in the Click to add Notes text box, it is automatically formatted using the predefined Notes style that is in Presentation Styles in the Styles deck on the Sidebar. You can format the Notes style to suit the presentation. For more information on editing styles, see Chapter 3, Styles and Templates, in this guide and the Impress Guide.

+
+## []( presentations
+
+## []( presentation
+
+When you create a new presentation, Impress shows only one slide in the Slides pane and Workspace.
+
+By default, Impress opens with the Select a Template dialog (Figure 1 on page 1) displayed where you can select a template to use in the presentation. To create a new presentation without using a template, click Cancel in the Select a Template dialog and a blank slide appears in the Workspace and Slides pane.
+

+
+* Click on the Duplicate Slide icon on the Presentation toolbar.
+
+## []( layout
+
+By default in Impress, the Title Slide layout is used for the first slide when a new presentation is created. The layouts included in Impress range from a blank slide to a slide with six contents boxes and a title. You can use either a blank layout or one of the title layouts as a title slide. For more information on slide layouts ands slide contents, see the Impress Guide.
+
+### []( slide layout
+
+The available layouts are shown in the Layouts panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar. After selecting a slide, you can select the slide layout using one of the following methods:
+
+* Go to the Properties deck on the Sidebar to open the Layouts panel (Figure 12).
+
+* Click on Slide Layout on the Presentation toolbar to open the Layouts panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Click on Slide > Layout on the Menu bar to open a drop-down list showing the layouts by name.
+
+* Right-click on the selected slide and select Layouts in the context menu.
+
+Figure 12: Layouts panel in Properties deck on Sidebar
+
+Image 12: Layouts panel in Properties deck on Sidebar
+
+To view the names for slide layouts, position the cursor on a layout in the Layouts panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar; its name is displayed in a tooltip.
+
+### []( slide layout
+
+Change the slide layout for a slide in a presentation as follows:
+
+1)Select a slide in the presentation.
+
+2)Select a new layout for the slide using one of the methods described in “Slide layout” on page1.
+
+Text and graphic elements can be readjusted at any time during the preparation of a presentation, but changing the layout of a slide that already has contents can have a dramatic effect. It is recommended to pay particular attention to the layout being selected before making a selection. If the layout is changed after contents have been added, the contents are not lost, but they may need to be reformatted.
+
+## []( slide elements
+
+When a slide is inserted into a presentation, it contains elements that were included in the selected slide layout. However, it is unlikely that predefined layouts will suit all requirements for a presentation. You may want to remove elements that are not required or add objects such as text or graphics.
+
+Impress does not have functionality to create custom layouts. However, different elements can be resized and moved in a slide layout to suit the requirements for a slide layout. It is also possible to add slide elements without being limited to the size and position of content boxes.
+
+It is recommended that changes to slide elements in the layouts included in Impress are only made using Normal view, which is the default. Attempting any changes to a slide element when in Master view is possible, but may produce unpredictable results and requires extra care as well as a certain amount of trial and error.
+
+### []( contents box
+
+1)Click on the outer frame of the contents box so that the selection handles are displayed.
+
+2)Place the mouse cursor on the frame so the cursor changes shape. This is normally a clenched hand, but depends on the computer setup.
+
+3)Click the left mouse button and drag the contents box to its new position on the slide, then release the mouse button.
+
+### []( contents box

+
+2)Press the Delete or Backspace key to remove the contents box or element.
+
+## []( text
+
+To add text to a slide that contains a text frame, click on Click to add text in the text frame and type the text required. Impress outline styles are automatically applied to the text as it is inserted. You can change outline level of each paragraph as well as its position within the text by using the arrow buttons on the Outline toolbar (see “Outline view” on page1), or position the cursor at the beginning of a paragraph and press the Tab key. For more information, see “Adding and formatting text” on page1 and the Impress Guide.
+
+## []( images or objects
+
+To add images or objects to a slide, for example a picture, clipart, drawing, photograph, or spreadsheet, click on Insert on the Menu bar and select in the drop-down menu the image or object type required. See “Inserting images, tables, charts, or media” on page1 and the Impress Guide.
+
+## []( slide appearance
+
+To change the background and other characteristics of all slides in the presentation, you need to modify the master slide or choose a different master slide, as explained in “Working with master slides” on page1.
+
+Figure 13: Slide Properties dialog - Background page
+
+Image 13: Slide Properties dialog - Background page
+
+A master slide has a specified set of characteristics that acts as a template and is used as the starting point for creating other slides. These characteristics include slide background, objects in the background, formatting of any text used, and any background graphics.
+
+Impress has a range of master slides, which are found in the Master Slides deck on the Sidebar. You can also create and save additional master slides or import more from other sources. See the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+To change only a slide background, you can use a shortcut:
+
+1)Select a slide in Normal or Slide Sorter view on the Workspace.
+
+2)Go to Slide > Slide Properties on the Menu bar to open the Slide Properties dialog (Figure 13).
+
+3)Click on the Background tab.
+
+4)Select the desired background from Color, Gradient, Bitmap, Pattern, or Hatch.
+
+5)Click OK to save the change and close the dialog.
+
+For more information on inserting, formatting, and changing a background, see the Impress Guide or Draw Guide.
+
+## []( and formatting text
+
+Most of the slides in a presentation are likely to contain some text. This section gives some guidelines on how to add text and change its appearance. Text used in slides is contained in text boxes. For more information on adding and formatting text, see the Impress Guide.
+
+Two types of text boxes (AutoLayout text box and text box) are available in Impress for use on slides. Both types of text boxes can be moved, resized, and deleted.
+
+* Choose a predefined layout from the Layouts panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar and do not select any special content type. These text boxes are called AutoLayout text boxes.
+
+* Use the Insert Text Box tool on the Standard toolbar, Drawing toolbar, or Text toolbar (Figure 14) to create text boxes on a slide.
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut F2 to create text boxes on a slide (Windows and Linux only).
+
+When adding and formatting text, the Text Formatting toolbar (Figure 15) normally opens, automatically providing a range of tools to add and format text.
+
+Figure 14: Text toolbar
+
+Image 14: Text toolbar
+
+Figure 15: Text Formatting toolbar
+
+Image 15: Text Formatting toolbar
+
+If the toolbars are not visible, go to View > Toolbars on the Menu bar and select the required toolbars in the drop-down list.
+
+## []( text boxes
+
+1)Make sure Normal view is selected in the Workspace.
+
+2)Select the slide where text is to be added into an AutoLayout text box.
+
+3)Click in the AutoLayout text box and start typing the text. An AutoLayout text box is indicated by the text Click to add Title or Click to add text.
+
+## []( boxes
+
+1)Make sure Normal view is selected in the Workspace.
+
+2)Select the slide where the text is to be added.
+
+3)On the selected slide, create a text box in edit mode using one of the following methods:
+
+* Insert Text Box (Windows, Linux and macOS): select Insert Text Box, click on the slide and then type or paste the text to create a single line text box. The width of a single line text box increases as text is added.
+
+* Keyboard shortcut F2 (Windows and Linux only): press F2, click on the slide and then type or paste the text to create a single line text box.
+
+* Insert Text Box, or keyboard shortcut F2 (Windows, Linux and macOS): click on the slide and drag to the approximate width required for the text box, then type or paste the text to create a multiple line text box. The width of the text box is fixed and the height of the text box increases automatically as text is added creating multiple lines.
+
+4)Release the mouse button and the cursor appears in the text box, which is now in edit mode and indicated by a colored border (Figure 16). The width and final position of the text box can be adjusted after adding text into the text box.
+
+5)Click outside the text box to deselect it.
+
+Figure 16: Example of a text box in edit mode
+
+Image 16: Example of a text box in edit mode
+
+You can create multiple lines of text in a single-line text box by pressing Enter to create a new paragraph, or use Shift+Enter to create a line break in the text.
+
+## []( text
+
+In addition to normal text boxes where text is horizontally aligned, it is possible to insert text boxes where the text is vertically aligned. Vertical text is available only when Asian languages are enabled in Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages.
+
+Creating vertical text boxes is similar to creating horizontal text boxes. Use the Insert Vertical Text tool on the Standard, Drawing, or Text toolbars to create a vertical text box with single or multiple lines. The height of the text box is fixed and the width of a vertical text box increases automatically as text is added to a multi-line text box.
+
+## []( font resizing
+
+You can quickly increase or decrease the font size of selected text by using the tools Increase Font Size (Ctrl+]) and Decrease Font Size (Ctrl+) on the Text Formatting toolbar. The amount by which the font size changes depends on the standard sizes available for the font in use.
+
+AutoLayout text boxes automatically adjust font size of any text inserted into the AutoLayout text box. For example, if a long piece of text is inserted into an AutoLayout text box, the font size may decrease in size to fit into the box.
+
+## [Pasting text
+
+You can add text to an AutoLayout or normal text box by copying it from another document and pasting it into Impress. However, the formatting of the pasted text will probably not match the formatting of the surrounding text or that of the other slides in the presentation. This may be what you want on some occasions. However, to make sure that the presentation style is consistent and does not become a patchwork of different styles, font types, bullet points, and so on, you should format the text to match the rest of the presentation.
+
+### []( text
+
+It is good practice to paste text without formatting and apply the formatting later.
+
+1)Highlight and copy the text from another document or slide.
+
+2)Create a text box on a slide and make sure the text cursor is flashing in the text box. See “Text boxes” on page1 and the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+Alternatively, select an AutoLayout text box on your slide. See “AutoLayout text boxes” on page1 and the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+3)Paste unformatted text into the text box using one of the following methods:
+
+* Go to Edit > Paste Special > Paste Unformatted Text on the Menu bar.
+
+* Click on the small triangle ▼to the right of the Paste tool on the Standard toolbar and select Unformatted Text in the context menu.
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+V and select Unformatted text on the dialog that opens.
+
+Text is pasted at the cursor position in the text box formatted using the Default Drawing Style or Presentation Style if text was pasted into an AutoLayout text box.
+
+4)Format the text to the presentation requirements using the tools on the Text Formatting toolbar or the options in Format on the Menu bar.
+
+The Presentation style used in AutoLayout text boxes cannot be changed by selecting another presentation style. Make sure the AutoLayout text box uses the presentation style required. Change outline levels and outline styles using the Tab key or Shift+Tab key combination. See the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+### []( text box formatting of pasted text
+
+If you are pasting text into an AutoLayout text box, you need to apply the appropriate outline style to the text to give it the same look and feel as the rest of the presentation.
+
+1)Highlight and copy the text from another document or slide.
+
+2)Paste formatted text into the AutoLayout text box.
+
+3)Select the pasted text.
+
+4)Select Format > Clear Direct Formatting on the Menu bar to make sure any formatting is removed from the pasted text.
+
+5)Use the four arrow buttons on the Outline toolbar to move the text to the appropriate position and give it the appropriate outline level.
+
+* Left arrow promotes a list entry by one level (for example from Outline 3 to Outline 2). You can get the same result by placing the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph and pressing the Shift+Tab keys.
+
+* Right arrow demotes a list entry by one level. You can get the same result by placing the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph and pressing the Tab key.
+
+* Up arrow moves a list entry up in the list order.
+
+* Down arrow moves a list entry down in the list order.
+
+6)If necessary, modify the presentation style to format the text to the presentation requirements to change font attributes, tabs, and so on. See the Impress Guide for more information. Alternatively, apply any necessary manual or direct formatting to the text.
+
+### []( box formatting of pasted text
+
+Pasting formatted text into a text box overwrites any formatting and replaces the text box style.
+
+2)If necessary, create a text box on a slide and make sure the text cursor is flashing in the text box. See “Text boxes” on page1 and the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+3)Paste formatted text into the text box. Text is pasted at the cursor position in the text box and the text formatting of the pasted text overwrites any style formatting of the text box.
+
+4)Select Format > Clear Direct Formatting on the Menu bar to make sure any formatting is removed from the pasted text.
+
+5)Select the required drawing style to format the text from the available drawing styles.
+
+6)If necessary, modify a drawing style or create a new drawing style to format the text to the presentation requirements. See the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+You can create drawing styles in Impress. These drawing styles are only available for the Impress presentation in which you have created and saved them. You can also create templates that include any drawing styles required. For more information, see the Impress Guide.
+
+## []( bulleted and numbered lists
+
+The procedure to create a bulleted or numbered list is slightly different depending on the type of text box used, although the tools to manage the list and customize the appearance are the same.
+
+* In AutoLayout text boxes, the outline styles use bulleted lists.
+
+* For normal text boxes, an additional step is required to create a bulleted list.
+
+In both cases, you can create numbered lists or change bulleted lists to numbered lists. Methods for changing the appearance of a list are explained in “Changing list appearance” on page1.
+
+### []( text boxes
+
+In AutoLayout text boxes, the outline styles available are formatted as bulleted lists. An example of these outline styles is shown in Figure 17. These outline styles are presentation styles and cannot be deleted, but they can be modified or updated to the presentation requirements. See the Impress Guide for more information.
+
+Figure 17: Example of outline bulleted lists
+
+Image 17: Example of outline bulleted lists
+
+Create a slide using an AutoLayout text box with a bulleted list as follows:
+
+1)Go to View > Normal on the Menu bar to open Normal view.
+
+2)Select a layout for the slide using one of the following methods:
+
+* Right-click in a blank area on the slide and select a layout in the context menu.
+
+* Go to Slide > Layout on the Menu bar and select a layout in the drop-down list.
+
+* Select a layout in the Layouts panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+3)Click on the text ● Click to add Text and start typing the first list item.
+
+4)Press Enter when finished typing and the first list point is created as a new list point.
+
+Use the keyboard combination Shift+Enter to start a new line without creating a new list point. This new line has the same indentation as the text in the list point. To switch off bullets altogether, click on Toggle Bulleted List on the Text Formatting toolbar (Figure 15 on page 1).
+
+### []( outline level
+
+In AutoLayout text boxes, change the outline level as follows:
+
+1)To demote the outline level of a list point, use one of the following methods:
+
+* Press the Tab key.
+
+* Click on Demote on the Outline toolbar.
+
+* Click on Demote in the Lists panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Go to Format > Lists on the Menu bar and select Demote in the submenu.
+
+2)To promote the outline level of a list point, use one of the following methods:
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Tab.
+
+* Click on Promote on the Outline toolbar.
+
+* Click on Promote in the Lists panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Go to Format > Lists on the Menu bar and select Promote in the submenu.
+
+3)To move a list point lower or higher in the list order without changing the outline level, use one of the following methods:
+
+* Click on Move Down or Move Up on the Outline toolbar.
+
+* Click on Move Down in the Lists panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Go to Format > Lists on the Menu bar and select Move Down or Move Up in the submenu.
+
+In AutoLayout text boxes, promoting or demoting an item in the list corresponds to applying a different outline style. The second outline level corresponds to Outline 2 style, the third outline level to Outline 3 style, and so on. A change in level and style produces other changes, for example, to font size, bullet type, and so on.
+
+### []( boxes
+
+Create a bulleted (unordered) or numbered (ordered) list in a text box as follows:
+
+1)Create a text box on a slide and make sure the cursor is flashing in the text box. See “Text boxes” on page1 on how to create a text box.
+
+2)Create a list using one of the following methods:
+
+* Click on Toggle Unordered List or Toggle Ordered List in the Text Formatting toolbar.
+
+* Click on Toggle Unordered List or Toggle Ordered List in the Lists panel on the Properties deck on the Sidebar.
+
+* Go to Format > Lists on the Menu bar and select Unordered List or Ordered List in the submenu.
+

+
+If the list was created in an AutoLayout text box, then an alternative way to change the list appearance is to modify the Outline styles. Changes made to an Outline style apply to all the slides that use that style. For details, see the Impress Guide.
+
+## []( images, tables, charts, or media
+
+A contents box on a slide can contain images, tables, charts, or media as well as text. The Insert toolbar (Figure 19) provides quick access to relevant tools. This section provides an overview of how to work with these objects. For more information, see the Impress Guide.

+
+## []( graphics, spreadsheets, and OLE objects
+
+Graphics, such as shapes, callouts, and arrows, are often useful to complement the text on a slide. These objects are handled much the same way as graphics in Draw. For more information on inserting graphics, see Chapter 7, Getting Started with Draw in this guide, the Impress Guide, or the Draw Guide.
+
+Spreadsheets embedded in Impress include most of the functionality of Calc spreadsheets and are capable of performing complex calculations and data analysis. If you need to analyze the data or apply formulas, these operations are best performed in a Calc spreadsheet and the results displayed in an embedded Calc spreadsheet or in an Impress table. For more information on spreadsheets, see the Impress Guide and the Calc Guide.
+
+### []( objects
+
+Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) is a software technology that allows linking and embedding of spreadsheets, charts, drawings, formulas, and text files into an Impress presentation.
+
+The major benefit of using OLE objects is that it provides a quick and easy method of editing the object using tools from the software used to create the object. These file types can all be created using LibreOffice and OLE objects can be created from new or from an existing file.
+
+When you insert a new OLE object into a presentation, it is only available in that presentation and can only be edited using Impress. For more information on inserting and formatting OLE objects, see the Impress Guide.
+
+## []( with master slides
+
+A master slide is a slide that is used as the starting point for other slides. It is similar to a page style in LibreOffice Writer as it controls the basic formatting of all slides based on it. A presentation can have more than one master slide.
+
+A master slide has a defined set of characteristics, including the background color, graphic, or gradient. It also can include objects (for example, logos, decorative lines) in the background; headers and footers; placement and size of text frames; and text formatting.
+
+All of the characteristics of master slides are controlled by styles. The styles of any new slide created are inherited from the master slide from which it was created. In other words, the styles of the master slide are available and applied to all slides created from that master slide. Changing a style in a master slide results in changes to all the slides based on that master slide. It is possible to modify each individual slide without affecting the master slide.
+
+Master slides have two types of styles: presentation styles and drawing styles. The presentation styles included with Impress can be modified, but new presentation styles cannot be created or deleted. The drawing styles included with Impress can be modified, but cannot be deleted. However, new drawing styles can be created and these drawing styles can be deleted.
+
+It is highly recommended to use the master slides whenever possible. However, there are occasions where manual changes are needed for a particular slide, for example editing an individual slide to enlarge the chart area when the text and chart layout is used.
+
+Figure 27: Master Slides deck on Sidebar

+
+Figure 28: Default master slide
+
+Image 28: Default master slide
+
+## []( slides
+
+Impress comes with a collection of master slides, which are are shown on the Master Slides deck of the Sidebar (Figure 27).
+
+This deck has three panels: Used in This Presentation, Recently Used, and Available for Use. Click the expand marker on the title bar of a panel to expand it and show thumbnails of the master slides, or click the collapse marker to collapse the panel to hide the thumbnails.
+
+Each of the master slides shown in the Available for Use panel is from a template of the same name. These presentation templates are included when LibreOffice is installed on a computer. If you have created your own templates or added templates from other sources, master slides from those templates also appear in this list.
+
+If a new presentation is created without using one of the templates available, then a default master slide is available. This default master slide is a good starting point for creating master slides. An example of the default master slide is shown in Figure 28.

+
+## []( transition
+
+Slide transitions are effects and/or sounds that take place between slides when slides change in a presentation and can add a professional look to a presentation, smoothing the change over between slides. For more information on how to setup slide transitions, modify slide transitions, and to advance slides in a presentation, see the Impress Guide.
+
+1)Click on Slide Transition in the Sidebar to open the Slide Transition deck (Figure 41).
+
+2)In the Slides pane or Slide Sorter view in the Workspace, select the slides where slide transitions are going to be applied.
+
+3)Click on a transition to apply it to the selected slide.
+
+4)To apply the same transition to all slides in the presentation, click Apply Transition to All Slides at the bottom of the Slides Transition deck.
+
+5)To check how the transition looks, click Play at the bottom of the Slides Transition deck. Alternatively, to automatically preview how the transition looks when it is applied, select Automatic Preview at the bottom of the Slides Transition deck.
+
+6)In the Advance Slide section, select how the slides change in a presentation.
+
+* On mouse click – each time the mouse is clicked, the presentation advances to the next slide.
+
+* Automatically after – enter a time in box to elapse before the next slide in the presentation advances into view.

+
+## []( sounds or music
+
+Sound or music can be played during a presentation as a transition effect. When using music in a presentation, make sure you are not infringing any copyright or license for the music.
+
+1)Click on Slide Transition on the Sidebar to open the Slide Transition deck.
+
+2)In the Slides pane or Slide Sorter view in the Workspace, select the slide to add sound or music.
+
+3)In the Modify Transition section, select a sound in the Sound drop-down list.
+
+4)To play music, use the following steps to select a music file:
+
+a)Select Other sound in the Sound drop-down list.
+
+b)In the file browser window that opens, navigate to where the music file is located.
+
+c)Select the music file required and click Play to check if the music is suitable.
+
+d)If the music is suitable, click Open to add the music to the selected slide and close the file browser window.
+
+5)To play a sound or music file continuously in the slide show, select the option Loop until next sound. The sound or music file restarts once it is finished until the next sound or music file that is inserted in the slide show.
+
+Do not select the Apply Transition to All Slides option, otherwise the selected music file restarts at every slide.
+
+The sound or music file is linked to a presentation rather than embedded. If you plan to display the presentation on a different computer, remember to make sure that the music file is available on the computer where the presentation will be played. The link to the sound or music file must be established before starting the presentation.
+
+## []( effects
+
+Slide animations are similar to transitions, but they are applied to individual elements in a single slide, such as title, chart, shape, or individual bullet point. Animations can make a presentation more lively and memorable. However, as with transitions, heavy use of animations can be distracting and even annoying for an audience expecting a professional presentation.
+
+Animations are best applied using Normal view in the Workspace so that you can easily select individual objects on a single slide.
+
+On a slide, an element such as a graphic or an entire text box has selection handles around it when selected. If you select only a portion of the text in a text box, any selection handles may not be visible. For more information on animation effects, see the Impress Guide.
+
+1)Go to View > Normal on the Menu bar to open Normal view in the Workspace.
+
+2)Select an element on a slide for animation.
+
+3)On the Sidebar, select Animation to open the Animation deck (Figure 42).
+
+4)Click on Add Effect (+ plus sign) to open the animation options on the Animation deck.
+
+a)Select an animation category in the Category drop-down list.
+
+b)Select an animation effect from the available options in the Effect list.
+
+c)Select how the animation starts in the Start drop-down list.
+
+d)Select the direction of the animation in the Direction drop-down list.
+
+e)Enter a time for the duration of the animation in the Duration box.
+
+f)Enter a time for the delay of when the animation starts in the Delay box.
+
+5)If required, select Automatic Preview so that how the animation looks can be checked when applied to a slide element.
+
+6)Click Play to check how the animation looks when applied to a slide element.

+
+## []( presentations
+
+1)Open the presentation and start the slide show using one of the following methods:
+
+* Use the keyboard shortcut F5 to start from the first slide or Shift+F5 to start from the current slide.
+
+* Go to Slide Show > Start from First Slide or Start from Current Slide on the Menu bar.
+
+* Click on Start from First Slide on the Slide Sorter toolbar.
+
+2)If the slide transition is set to Automatically after x sec, the slide show starts and runs after the set time has elapsed.
+
+3)If the slide transition is set to On mouse click, click the left mouse button, or press the down arrow key, the right arrow key, the page down key, or the spacebar.
+
+4)To navigate backwards through a slide show one slide at a time, press the up arrow key, the left arrow key, or the page up key.
+
+5)During a slide show, more navigation options are available when you right-click on a slide and use the options available in the context menu.
+
+6)When the last slide has displayed, the message Click to exit presentation... is displayed on screen. Press the Esc key or click the left mouse button to exit the slide show.
+
+7)To exit the slide show and return to the Impress workspace at any time, press the Esc key during the slide show.
+
+During the presentation, any animations on a slide are run in the specified order as the slide is displayed.
+
+## []( Console
+
+The Presenter Console provides extra control over slide shows when using dual displays, such as a laptop for yourself and a large display or projector for your audience. The view you see on a computer display includes the current slide that can be seen by the audience, the next slide in the presentation, any slide notes, and a presentation timer.
+
+The Presenter Console only works with operating systems that support two displays. When two displays are being used, one display can be a laptop.
+
+The Presenter Console has to be enabled in Impress before use. Go to Tools > Options > LibreOffice Impress > General (Figure 43) and select Enable Presenter Console in Presentation.
+
+The Presenter Console provides the following views to assist you when making a presentation:
+
+* Default view – displays the current slide, including any effects and the next slide in the presentation (Figure 44). Click on the Previous and Next arrows to navigate through the presentation.
+
+* Notes view – click on Notes to switch to display any notes that accompany each slide in the presentation (Figure 45). Click on Notes again to return to the default view.
+
+* Slides view – click on Slides to switch to display the slide thumbnails that are being used for the presentation (Figure 46). Click on Slides again to return to the default view.
+
+* Exchange – click on this icon to switch the Presenter Console between displays.
