Introduction
PowerPoint is a presentation software package. With PowerPoint, you can easily create
slide shows. Trainers and other presenters use slide shows to illustrate their
presentations. You use the window to interact with the software. To begin, open
PowerPoint 2007. The window appears and your screen looks similar to the one shown
here.
The Microsoft Office Button
In the upper-left corner is the Microsoft Office button. When you click the button, a menu
appears. You can use the menu to create a new file, open an existing file, save a file,
and perform many other tasks.
The Quick Access Toolbar
Next to the Microsoft Office button is the Quick Access toolbar. The Quick Access
toolbar provides you with access to commands you frequently use. By default, Save,
Undo, and Redo appear on the Quick Access toolbar. You use Save to save your file,
Undo to rollback an action you have taken, and Redo to reapply an action you have
rolled back.
Normal View
Normal view splits your screen into three major sections: the Outline and Slides
tabs, the Slide pane, and the Notes area. The Outline and Slides tabs are on the
left side of your window. They enable you to shift between two different ways of
viewing your slides. The Slides tab shows thumbnails of your slides. The Outline
tab shows the text on your slides. The Slide pane is located in the center of your
window. The Slide pane shows a large view of the slide on which you are
currently working. The Notes area appears below the Slide pane. You can type
notes to yourself on the Notes area.
Add Animations
You can animate the objects on your PowerPoint slides. PowerPoint provides four types
of animations: Entrance, Emphasis, Exit, and Motion Paths. An Entrance animation
determines the manner in which an object appears on a slide; for example, an object
can move onto a slide. An Emphasis animation does something to draw attention to an
object; for example, the object can become larger. An Exit animation determines the
manner in which an object leaves a slide; for example, an object can move off a slide. A
Motion Paths animation determines how an object moves around a slide; for example,
an object can move from left to right.
Add Transitions
Transitions determine how your presentations move from one slide to the next. For
example, a slide can move up onto the screen and replace the previous slide.
PowerPoint provides several transition methods. You can add sound to a transition and
you can control its speed. You can apply a transition to selected slides or to all of the
slides in your presentation.
