presentation - question

Hello,

I have been using the presentation aspect of the Libre Office

For the most part, simple to use.

I seem to have lost a display tool that allows me to see the slides. They appear in a long vertical column on the left hand side of the window.

How do I get this back?

I am using v4.x.
Mac 10.6

Thanks for any hints. I have looked for 3-4 weeks, no success. I am now asking for help:)

Hi Joseph,

maybe Menu/View/Slide pane.

Hello MIguel,

I tried this, but this pulls up a separate window with all the slides.

I had a vertical column that I could slide up and it stays in the same window as the presentation.

It was just there when I started making the presentation. Now, it is gone.

Other ideas?

Thanks

Joseph

Hi Joseph

That is called the Slide Pane. If the option is checked under View > Slide
Pane, then it means it must be collapsed to the left. You need to click on
the vertical handle to expand it (see image below)

Hope this helps...

Hi again Joseph

Please ignore my previous message. It was written before I saw your answer
to Miguel's suggestion

The "window with all the slides" is the Slide Pane. If it is showing as a
separate window it means you undocked it.
What you need to do is click on the words Slide Pane on the top left corner
of that window, hold the left button while you drag the window to the left
edge of the Impress window. At some point a grey outline box will show up.
You can release the left mouse button to dock the Slide Pane back to the
original position.

If the instructions aren't clear enough, please ask for details.

Hello,
Thanks to Pedro and Brian, I succeeded in docking the slide pane.

I was told CTL.

But, it doe snot work on a Mac.

I tried:

CMD and double clicked on the gray zone.

It worked!!

Thanks!
