• Duplicate a slide (copy and paste) or move it to a different position in the
presentation (cut and paste).
It is also possible to perform the following operations, although there are more
efficient methods than using the Slides pane, as you will see later in this chapter:
• Change the slide transition following the selected slide or after each slide in a
group of slides.
• Change the sequence of slides in the presentation.
• Change the slide design.
• Change slide layout for a group of slides simultaneously.
Tasks pane
The Tasks pane has five sections. To expand the section you wish to use, click on the
right-pointing triangle to the left of the caption. Only one section at a time can be
expanded.
Master Pages
Here you define the page style for your presentation. Impress contains
prepackaged Master Pages (slide masters). One of them—Default—is blank, and
the rest have a background and styled text.
Tip
Press F11 to open the Styles and Formatting window, where you can
modify the styles used in any slide master to suit your purposes. This can
be done at any time. See Chapter 2 for more information.
Layouts
The prepackaged layouts are shown here. You can choose the one you want, use it
as it is, or modify it to your own requirements. It is not possible to create custom
layouts.
Table Design
The standard table styles are provided in this pane. You can further modify the
appearance of a table with the options to show or hide specific rows and columns,
or to apply a banded appearance to the rows and columns. Refer to Chapter 3
(Adding and Formatting Text) for details on how to work with tables.
Custom Animation
A variety of animations for selected elements of a slide are listed. Animation can
be added to a slide, and it can also be changed or removed later. See Chapter 9
(Slide Shows) for an overview of how to add and customize animations.
Slide Transition
Many transitions are available, including No Transition, which makes the next
slide simply replace the existing one. You can select the transition speed (slow,
medium, fast). You can also choose between an automatic or manual transition,
and how long the selected slide should be shown (automatic transition only).
