Author: Geetesh Bajaj
Product/Version: Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 for Mac
OS: Mac OS X
PowerPoint 2016 for Mac continues
to providing several views that enable you to view and edit your
slides. Unarguably, Normal view is the default and most often used view (see Figure 1 below). This view displays one slide at a time
in the Slide Area, and is used mainly for editing and creating slides, and
shows PowerPoint's typical tri-pane interface that includes the Slides Pane,
the Slide Area, and the
Notes Pane. If you cannot see the Slides Pane in Normal view, scroll down
this page to read a tip that will help you restore that pane.

To navigate between the slides, you can use the Page Up and Page Down keys on your keyboard, arrow keys will also serve the same purpose. All these techniques are explained in further detail within our Slide Area tutorial.
If you are not in Normal view, you can easily get to this view by choosing the View tab on
Ribbon, and clicking the Normal button (highlighted in
blue within Figure 2).

Other than the View tab of the Ribbon, you can also access the Normal view by clicking the Normal button
(highlighted in red within Figure 3) located towards the right side of the
Status Bar.
