Adding sections to your presentation can make it easier to organize the content and keep track of where you are in your presentation. Sections can also help you group slides together based on a single theme or topic.
In this article, we will discuss how to use sections in PowerPoint to organize your content and group related slides together.
Adding Sections
1. Place your cursor above the slides you want to separate into a section.
2. Right-click and then click “Add Section.”
3. Rename the section.
4. Done!
You have successfully added a section to your presentation. Once you create several sections, you gain far more flexibility in how you arrange your content. Each section appears as a collapsible header in the thumbnail pane on the left, so you can fold a group of slides out of the way while you focus on another part of the deck.
Organizing slides and sections
Rearranging slides and sections is easy. Simply drag and drop the slides and sections to rearrange them in your presentation. Alternatively, you can also rearrange slides and sections by using the “Slide Sorter” in the “View” menu.
Conclusion
Organizing your slides and sections is an important step in creating a professional presentation. Grouping related slides under named sections lets you move around your deck far more quickly. Whether you are creating a PowerPoint for work or school, using sections is a useful tool that can help improve the clarity and organization of your presentation.
