Window elements of Impress - OpenOffice presentation

Window elements of Impress

Figure 12.19 shows the elements of the Impress Window Open source application .

The window elements of Impress include Title Bar, Menu Bar, Tool Bar, Ruler Bar and the Scroll Bar which are similar to the elements in Open Office writer.

View Buttons:

The Workspace has five tabs: Normal, Outline, Notes, Handout, and Slide Sorter, as seen in Figure 12.19. These five tabs are called View Buttons.

Status Bar:

Status Bar is present at the bottom of your window, which gives you some statistics about the file that you are viewing. It is a good practice to check the information shown there. In case you do not need the information in the Status Bar, you can hide it by selecting View → Status Bar from the main menu.

Navigator

The Navigator (Figure 12.20) displays all objects contained in a document. It provides another convenient way to move around a document and find items in it. The Navigator button is located on the Standard toolbar. You can also display the Navigator by choosing Edit → Navigator on the menu bar or pressing Ctrl+Shift+F5.

The Navigator is more useful if you give your objects (pictures, spreadsheets, and so on) meaningful names, instead of names as “Object 1” and “Picture 1” as shown in Figure 12.20.
