Key Takeaways
The Summary Zoom in PowerPoint allows you to automatically create and manage sections. This enables you to better structure your presentations and maintain a clear overview of the content.
Step-by-Step Guide
Start by opening your presentation that you want to further edit. If you already have sections, you can decide whether to keep or remove them. Right-click on one of the sections to access the options.
If you want to remove all sections, select the option "Remove All Sections". Your presentation is now sectionless.
To create a new section, go to the slide that is important to you. When your presentation is complete and all slides are present, you can go to the "Insert" tab to insert the Summary Zoom.
Choose the option "Zoom" and then "Summary Zoom". This is one of the most powerful features that PowerPoint offers.
Now you can select the slides to be included in the Summary Zoom. For example, you can click on individual slides and add them to your new section.
Once you have selected the appropriate slides, a pink bar will appear indicating where the Summary Zoom will be placed.
You will notice that PowerPoint has automatically created sections that you may not have manually created, but they help structure the presentation sensibly.
The slide with the Summary section will now be visible. You can now navigate between these sections.
If you want to remove one of the slides at the end, it is also possible. Simply click on the slide you want to delete and select the appropriate option.
When using the Summary Zoom, you can also choose different animations and transitions for your presentation. These can be customized as desired.
You can collectively edit the sizes and positions of the slides in the Summary Zoom. This improves the layout and ensures that everything looks good.
If you wish, you can also add special effects to make your slides even more appealing.
The Summary Zoom not only makes your presentation clearer but also facilitates the presentation of important points.
