Sections in PowerPoint are not just meant for managing your slides easily, but they can also help you quickly reorder large sets of adjacent slides. For example, you can create a Section including all slides you want to reorder, and then move that Section along with all the slides that it contains to the required position. In this tutorial we'll show you how you can reorder Sections within PowerPoint 2010:
The options explained above will move the Section just one level up or down. In case if you want to move the selected Section to a position after or before a number of Sections, then you have to use the drag and drop method, as explained below:
A more intuitive way to reorder Sections, especially if your Sections have many, many slides, is to first Collapse your Sections as explained in our Viewing Sections in PowerPoint 2010 tutorial so that you right away only see the Section names without any slides, as shown in Figure 8, below. Then you can just drag the Section names to reorder as required!
