• Press the

Spacebar

To go backwards through the show one slide at a time, press the

arrow

key, the

left arrow key

, or the

Page Up

key. For more complex

navigation, use the right-click menu (see below).

Custom animations on a slide are run in the specified order when

performing one of the above actions.

When you advance past the last slide, the message Click to exit

presentation... appears. Click the left mouse button or press any key

to exit the presentation.

To exit the slide show at any time and return to the Impress

workspace, including at the end, press the

Esc

key.

Navigating using the right-click menu

If your presentation consists of more than one slide, right-clicking

anywhere on the screen brings up the menu shown in Figure 179

allowing you to navigate the slides and set other options. The choices

are:

Next: Moves to the next slide in the defined sequence.

Previous: Move to the previous slide in the defined sequence.

Go to Slide: Displays a submenu as shown in the figure. Choices on

the submenu include First slide, Last Slide, or any slide in the

show. You can see why giving the slides meaningful names—instead

of leaving them at the default Slide 1, Slide 2, and so on—can be

very helpful.

Screen: Displays a submenu with two choices, as shown in the

figure. Each choice blanks the screen, showing it as either all black

or all white. This can be useful if you want to pause the show for

awhile (perhaps during a break or to demonstrate something on

another computer).

End Show: Ends the presentation and returns you to the Impress

workspace. This is the same effect as pressing the

Esc

key.
