There are several ways to append additional slides to your presentation as you work. Generally when you add a new slide, it’s based on the theme and master of the selected slide, and the new slide is placed after the selected slide. But if you’re working in a new document, the first slide is always a title slide, and the next slide you add is based on the second master from the set of masters for that theme.

Whether in navigator view, outline view, or light table view, you can always rearrange slides by dragging them around. And you can always change a slide’s theme or master after you’ve added it.

Here are ways to add a slide:
  • Select a slide in the slide navigator and press Return.

  • Select a slide and click the New (+) button in the toolbar.

  • Select a slide and choose Slide > New Slide.

  • Press Option and drag a slide until you see a green circle with a plus sign (+) inside it. This action duplicates the dragged slide.

  • Select a slide and choose Edit > Duplicate (or press Command-D).

To quickly create multiple slides from multiple media files:

Drag one or more images from the Finder or the Media Browser to the slide navigator or light table view.
