Introducing the Slides/Outline Pane

Continuing our exploration of the new Microsoft PowerPoint 2011 for Mac interface that now sports the Ribbon, we now explore the Slides/Outline pane which is relatively similar in its look and feel to the one in older PowerPoint versions for Mac.

The Slides/Outline pane is normally placed on the left side of the interface, as shown in Figure 1 (highlighted in red).

About Slide/Outline Pane

The pane contains two tabs, the Slides tab and the Outline tab (see Figure 2).

The two tabs are explained below:

A. Slides

tab of the pane allows the user to move slides easily from one position to the other as shown in Figure 3.

As shown in Figure 3 above, if the presentation has more slides than the length of the pane can display, you'll get a scrollbar to navigate up and down.

You can select one or more slides within the Slides tab of the pane, and perform basic slide level edits such as deleting the slide, copying and pasting slides, duplicating and rearranging them, etc. If you need to view more slides at a time and perform basic slide level edits, you'll want to change the PowerPoint view to Slide Sorter.

B. Outline tab

(see Figure 4) displays the title and text content of the slides.
