Tips
If you do not want the wizard to start every time you start
Impress, select the Do not show this wizard again option. You
can enable the wizard again later under Tools > Options >
OpenOffice.org Impress > General > Wizard, and select the
Start with wizard option.
Leave the Preview option selected, so templates, slide designs,
and slide transitions appear in the preview box as you choose
them.
1) Select Empty presentation under Type. This creates a
presentation from scratch.
• From template uses a template design already created as the
basis for a new presentation. The wizard changes to show a
list of available templates. Choose the template you want.
More details can be found in Chapter 2.
• Open existing presentation continues work on a previously
created presentation. The wizard changes to show a list of
existing presentations. Choose the one you want.
2) Click Next. Figure 13 shows the Presentation Wizard step 2 as it
appears if you selected Empty presentation at step 1. If you
selected From template, an example slide is shown in the Preview
box.
3) Choose a design under Select a slide design. The slide design
section gives you two main choices: Presentation Backgrounds
and Presentations. Each one has a list of choices for slide designs.
If you want to use one of these other than <Original>, click it to
select it.
The types of Presentation Backgrounds are shown in Figure 13.
When you click an item, a preview of the slide design appears in
the Preview window. <Original> is an empty background.
Impress contains three choices under Presentations:
• <Original> is for a blank presentation slide design.
• Both Introducing a New Product and Recommendation of a
Strategy have their own prepackaged slide designs. Each
design appears in the Preview window when its name is
clicked.
