When the window to the left of the PPT (usually the Slide Outline pane) closes, you can reopen it by:
On the top menu bar of the PPT interface, find and click the "View" tab.
In the View tab, you'll see several options related to the presentation view. Find and click the Normal view, which typically contains a slide pane, an outline pane, and a notes pane.
If you still don't see the slides on the left side of the Outline pane after clicking the Normal view, you can try to find other panes that may be hidden on the right or bottom of the PPT interface, and check if they contain the slides you need outline content.
You can also try resetting the interface layout via the "Restore Default Layout" button in the top right or bottom left corner of the PPT interface, which will usually restore all panes to their default display state.
If none of the above methods solve the problem, you may need to check the settings or options of the PPT, or try restarting the PPT and restore the default settings. Also, make sure that your version of the PPT supports the ability to display the left slide outline pane.
In addition to solving the problem of closing the left window, the following will introduce the view mode, interface layout, and custom settings in PPT in detail to help you better understand and use PPT.
1. View mode.
In PPT, the view mode determines what you see and the layout during editing and presentation. In addition to the "normal" view described above, PPT also provides the following common view modes:
Slide skimming view: In this view, you can see thumbnails of all the slides in your presentation for quick browsing and sorting.
Notes page view: In this view, you can add detailed notes for each slide that won't be shown to the audience during the presentation.
Reading View: This view simulates the effect of a slide presentation, allowing you to preview the presentation at any time during the editing process.
Slideshow view: This is the view mode used for the actual presentation, showing the content of the current slide in full screen.
2. Interface layout.
The interface layout of a PPT usually includes a menu bar, a toolbar, a slideshow outline pane, a notes pane, and a status bar. The functions of each section are as follows:
Menu bar: contains all the functional commands of PPT, such as file, edit, view, insert, format, etc.
Toolbar: Provides shortcuts to frequently used commands for users to quickly perform operations.
AhaSlides Outline Pane: Displays thumbnails or outline structure of slides on the left, making it easy for users to navigate and edit the presentation.
Notes pane: Appears on the right or bottom to add notes to the slide.
Status Bar: Displays information such as the page number, total number of pages, and zoom of the current slide.
3. Custom settings.
In addition to the default interface layout and view mode, PPT also provides a wealth of customization options, allowing users to adjust the interface and features according to their personal needs and preferences. For example, you can customize the contents of toolbars and menu bars, resize and position panes, set shortcuts, and more. These customizations can help you be more productive and optimize your experience.
In short, mastering the various view modes, interface layouts, and custom settings of PPT is the key to improving work efficiency and user experience. Through the introduction and practical operation of this article, I believe you can better use PPT for the editing and presentation of presentations. At the same time, it is recommended to regularly check the official documentation or ** tutorial of PPT for guidance on more advanced features and techniques.
