Toolbars

The various Impress toolbars can be displayed or hidden by clicking

View > Toolbars and selecting from the menu. You can also select the

icons that you wish to appear on each toolbar. For more information,

refer to Chapter 1 (Introducing OpenOffice.org) in the

Getting Started

guide.

Many of the toolbars in Impress are similar to the toolbars in OOo

Draw. Refer to the

Draw Guide

for details on the functions available

and how to use them.

Status Bar

The status bar, positioned at the bottom of the Impress window,

contains information that you may find useful when working on a

presentation.

From left to right, you will find:

• A general information area, which changes depending on the

selection: For example:

– Text area—”TextEdit: Paragraph x, Row y, Column z”

– Charts, spreadsheets—”Embedded object (OLE) ‘ObjectName’

selected”

– Graphics—”Bitmap with transparency selected”

• The position of the cursor or of the top left corner of the selection

measured from the top left corner of the slide.

• The width and height of the selection or of the text box where the

cursor is.

• The zoom level of the workarea.

• A modified flag, showing a star when the file needs saving.

• A flag indicating if the document is digitally signed.

• The slide number currently displayed in the workarea.

• The slide master associated to the slide currently in the workarea.

Tip

Right-clicking on the slide master area of the Status bar you can

quickly apply a different slide master to the current slide.

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.
