Navigator view displays thumbnail images of each slide and is useful for slideshows that contain a lot of graphics, tables, and other objects. This view provides a good visual overview of your slides but you might not be able to read all the text in the thumbnails.

You can manipulate slides in the slide navigator to rearrange and organize your slides.

Here are ways to work with navigator view:
  • To show navigator view, click View in the toolbar and choose Navigator, or choose View > Navigator.

  • To rearrange or indent slides, drag them.

  • To show or hide groups of slides (indented slides and their “parent” slide), click the disclosure triangles.

  • To enlarge or shrink the thumbnail images, click the button in the lower-left corner and choose a size.

  • To duplicate one or more adjacent slides, select them and choose Edit > Duplicate. The duplicates are inserted following the selected slides.

  • To copy and paste one or more adjacent slides, select them, choose Edit > Copy, select the slide after which you want to paste the copied slides, and choose Edit > Paste.

  • To show master slides (useful if you create your own master slides or themes), drag the handle at the top right of the slide navigator, or click View in the toolbar and choose Show Master Slides. See Designing Master Slides and Themes for details.
