Normal view is the main editing view, which you use to write and design your presentation. The view has three working areas: on the left there is an outline of your slides text and your slides displayed as thumbnails; on the right, the slide pane, which displays a large view of the current slide; and on the bottom, the notes pane.*

You can get to Normal Mode by clicking on the icon at the bottom of the page.

Slide sorter view is an exclusive view of your slides in thumbnail form. When you are finished creating and editing your presentation, slide sorter gives you an overall picture of it — making it easy to reorder, add, or delete slides and preview your transition and animation effects.*

Slide show view takes up the full computer screen, like an actual slide show presentation. In this full-screen view, you see your presentation the way your audience will. You can see how your graphics, timings, movies, animated elements, and transition effects will look in the actual show.*

To get to the Slide Show view, click on the Slide Show icon at the bottom of the page.
