Figure 128: Outline level and movement arrows in Text Formatting toolbar
Use Outline view for the following purposes.
1) Making changes in the text of a slide:
a) Add and delete the text in a slide just as in the Normal view.
b) Move 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 128).
c) Change 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.
d) Both move a paragraph and change its outline level using a combination of these four
arrow buttons.
2) Compare 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 129) to add notes to a slide. These notes are not seen when the
presentation is shown.
