You can skip a slide when your slideshow plays without deleting the slide from your document.

To skip one or more slides, do either of the following:
  • Select the slide or slides in the slide navigator, outline, or light table view, and then choose Slide > Skip Slide.

  • Hold down the Control key as you click the slide, and then choose Skip Slide.

To make a skipped slide visible in a slideshow, do either of the following:
  • Select it and then choose Slide > Don’t Skip Slide.

  • Hold down the Control key as you click the slide, and then choose Don’t Skip Slide.

If you frequently skip slides, you can add a Skip Slide button to the Toolbar. To learn how, see The Toolbar.
