What is Impress?Impress is the presentation (slide show) program included in LibreOffice. You can create slides that contain many different elements, including text, bulleted and numbered lists, tables, charts, and a wide range of graphic objects such as clipart, drawings, and photographs. Impress also includes a spelling checker, a thesaurus, text styles, and background styles. This chapter includes instructions, screenshots, and hints to guide you through the Impress environment while designing your presentations. Although more difficult designs are mentioned in this chapter, explanations for creating them are in the Impress Guide. If you have a working knowledge of how to create slide shows, we recommend you use the Impress Guide for your source of information. To use Impress for more than very simple slide shows requires some knowledge of the elements which the slides contain. Slides that contain text use styles to determine the appearance of that text. Creating drawings in Impress is similar to the Draw program included in LibreOffice. For this reason, we recommend that you also see Chapter 3 Using Styles and Templates and Chapter 7 Getting Started with Draw in this guide. You may also wish to consult the Draw Guide for more details on how to use the drawing tools. Starting ImpressYou can start Impress in several ways, as described in Chapter 1 Introducing LibreOffice. When you start Impress for the first time, the Presentation Wizard may be shown. See “Creating a new presentation using the Presentation Wizard” on page 13. Otherwise, the main Impress window is displayed. You can turn the Presentation Wizard on and off in by selecting or deselecting the option. Main Impress windowThe main Impress window (Figure 1) has three parts: the Slides pane, Workspace, and Sidebar. Additionally, several toolbars can be displayed or hidden during the creation of a presentation.
You can close the Slides pane or the Sidebar by clicking the X in the upper right corner of each pane or go to or on the Menu bar to deselect the pane. To reopen a pane, go to on the Menu bar and select or again. You can also maximize the Workspace area by clicking on the Hide/Show marker in the middle of the vertical separator line (highlighted in Figure 1). Using the Hide/Show marker hides, but does not close, the Slide pane or Sidebar. To restore a pane, click again on its Hide/Show marker. WorkspaceThe Workspace (normally in the center of the main window) opens in the view. It has five tabs: , , , , and . These five tabs are called View buttons. Since LibreOffice 5.1, the View buttons are not shown by default; but they can be activated by choosing from the menu bar. The Workspace below the View buttons changes with the chosen view. The workspace views are described in “Workspace views” on page 9. Figure 1: Main window of Impress; ovals indicate the Hide/Show markers. The View Tab Bar is visible in this image. Slides paneThe Slides pane contains thumbnail pictures of the slides in your presentation in the order in which they will be shown, unless you change the slide show order. Clicking a slide in this pane selects it and places it in the Workspace. When a slide is in the Workspace, you can make changes to it. Several additional operations can be performed on one or more slides simultaneously in the Slides pane:
It is also possible to perform the following operations, although there are more efficient methods than using the Slides pane:
SidebarThe Sidebar has seven sections. To expand a section you want to use, click on its icon or click on the small triangle at the top of the icons and select a section from the drop down list. Only one section at a time can be open. Properties Shows the layouts included within Impress. You can choose the one you want and use it as it is, or modify it to meet your own requirements. However, it is not possible to save customized layouts. Master Pages Here you define the page (slide) style for your presentation. Impress includes several designs for Master Pages (slide masters). One of them – Default – is blank, and the rest have background and styled text.
Go to on the Menu bar or press the F11 key to open the Styles and Formatting dialog, where you can modify the styles used in any master page to suit your purpose. This can be done at any time. Custom Animation A variety of animations can be used to emphasize or enhance different elements of each slide. The Custom Animation section provides an easy way to add, change, or remove animations. Slide Transition Provides a number of slide transition options. The default is set to No Transition, in which the following slide simply replaces the existing one. However, many additional transitions are available. You can also specify the transition speed (slow, medium, fast), choose between an automatic or manual transition, and choose how long the selected slide should be shown (automatic transition only). Styles and Formatting Here you can edit and apply graphics styles and create new ones, but you can only edit existing presentation styles. When you edit a style, the changes are automatically applied to all of the elements formatted with this style in your presentation. If you want to ensure that the styles on a specific slide are not updated, create a new master page for the slide. Gallery Opens the Impress gallery from which you can insert an object into your presentation either as a copy or as a link. A copy of an object is independent of the original object, so changes to the object have no effect on the copy. A link remains dependent on the original object and changes to the object are reflected in the link. Navigator Opens the Impress navigator, in which you can quickly move to another slide or select an object on a slide. It is recommended to give slides and objects in your presentation meaningful names so that you can easily identify them when using the navigator. ToolbarsMany toolbars can be used during slide creation. They can be displayed or hidden by going to on the Menu bar and selecting from the context menu. You can also select the icons that you wish to appear on each toolbar. For more information, refer to Chapter 1, Introducing LibreOffice. Many of the toolbars in Impress are similar to the toolbars in Draw. Refer to the Draw Guide for details on the functions available and how to use them. Status barThe Status bar (Figure 2), located at the bottom of the Impress window, contains information that you may find useful when working on a presentation. For details on the contents and use of these fields, see Chapter 1 Introducing LibreOffice in this guide and the Impress Guide Chapter 1 Introducing Impress.
The sizes are given in the current measurement unit (not to be confused with the ruler units). This measurement unit is defined in . From left to right, you will find:
You can hide the Status Bar and its information by going to on the Menu bar and deselecting . Workspace viewsEach of the Workspace views is designed to ease the completion of certain tasks. It is therefore useful to familiarize yourself with them in order to accomplish those tasks quickly.
Beginning with LibreOffice 5.1, the Workspace View tab bar is hidden by default. Turn it visible by choosing .
Each Workspace view displays a different set of toolbars when selected. These toolbar sets can be customized by going to on the Menu bar, then check or uncheck the toolbar you want to add or remove. Normal viewNormal view is the main view for working with individual slides. Use this view to format and design and to add text, graphics, and animation effects. To place a slide in the slide design area (Normal view) (Figure 1 on page 6), click the slide thumbnail in the Slides pane or double-click it in the Navigator (see Chapter 1 Introducing LibreOffice and the Impress Guide for more information on the Navigator). Outline viewOutline view (Figure 3) contains all the slides of the presentation in their numbered sequence. It shows topic titles, bulleted lists, and numbered lists for each slide in outline format. Only the text contained in the default text boxes in each slide is shown, so if your slide includes other text boxes or drawing objects, the text in these objects is not displayed. Slide names are not included either. Figure 4: Outline level and movement arrows in Text Formatting toolbar Use Outline view for the following purposes:
Notes viewUse the Notes view (Figure 5) to add notes to a slide. These notes are for your information and are not seen by the audience when the presentation is shown.
You can resize the Notes text box using the colored resizing handles which appear when you click on the edge of the box. You can also move the box by placing the pointer on the border, then clicking and dragging. To make changes in the text style, click on the Styles and Formatting icon on the Sidebar. Handout viewHandout view is for setting up the layout of your slide for a printed handout. Click the Handout tab in the workspace and the section opens on the Sidebar (Figure 6). Here you can choose to print 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 9 slides per page. If the Layouts section does not open, then click on the Properties icon at the side of the Sidebar. Use this view also to customize the information printed on the handout. Refer to Chapter 10, Printing, E-mailing, Exporting, and Saving Slide Shows, in the Impress Guide for instructions on printing slides, handouts, and notes. Go to on the Menu bar and the Header and Footer dialog opens. Click on the Notes and Handouts tab (Figure 7) and select the elements you want to appear on each handout page and their contents. More details on how to use this dialog are provided in the Impress Guide. Figure 6: Handout layouts Figure 7: Header and Footer dialog – Notes and Handouts page Slide Sorter viewSlide Sorter view (Figure 8) contains all of the slide thumbnails. Use this view to work with a group of slides or with only one slide. Figure 8: Slide Sorter view Customizing Slide Sorter viewTo change the number of slides per row:

Selecting and moving groups of slidesTo select a group of slides, use one of these methods:
To move a group of slides, select them and then drag and drop the group to their new location. Working in Slide Sorter viewYou can work with slides in the Slide Sorter view just as you can in the Slide pane. To make changes, right-click a slide and choose any of the following from the context menu:
Creating a new presentation using the Presentation WizardThis section describes how to start a new presentation using the Presentation Wizard.
The first thing to do is decide on the purpose of the presentation and set out a plan. Although you can make changes as you go, you will save a lot of time by having an initial idea of who the audience will be, the structure, the content, and how the presentation will be delivered. When you start Impress, the Presentation Wizard may appear (Figure 10).
Figure 10: Choosing the type of presentation
Figure 11: Selecting a slide design
The Screen page is set by default for a 4:3 display (28cm x 21cm) so it is not suitable for modern widescreen displays. Use the Widescreen option instead. You can also change the slide size and proportions at any time by switching to Normal view and selecting .
Figure 12: Selecting a slide transition effect
If you did not select a template in step 1 of the Presentation Wizard, then steps 4 and 5 will not appear after step 3. Click and your new presentation is created.

Figure 14: Presentation preview
You can accept the default values for both Effect and Speed unless you are skilled at creating presentations. Both of these values can be changed later while working with slide transitions and animations. These two features are explained in more detail in Chapter 9, Slide Shows, in the Impress Guide Formatting a presentationA new presentation contains only one empty slide. In this section we will start adding new slides and preparing them for the intended contents. Inserting slidesNew slideA new slide can be inserted into a presentation as follows:
Duplicate slideSometimes, rather than starting from a new slide you may want to duplicate a slide already included in your presentation. To duplicate a slide:
Selecting slide layoutWhen creating a presentation, the first slide is normally a title slide. You can use either a blank layout or one of the title layouts as your title slide. Click on the Properties icon at the side of the Sidebar to open section and display the available layouts (Figure 15). The layouts included in LibreOffice range from a blank slide to a slide with six contents boxes and a title. Figure 15: Available slide layouts To create a title, if one of the title layouts has been selected, click on Click to add title and then type the title text. To add text content, depending on the slide layout selected, click on Click to add text. To adjust the formatting of the title, subtitle or content modify the presentation style; see the Impress Guide Chapter 2 Using Slide Masters, Styles, and Templates.
Text and graphical elements can be readjusted at any time during the preparation of the presentation, but changing the layout of a slide that already contains some content can have an effect on the content format. Therefore, it is recommended that you pay particular attention to the layout you select to prevent any loss of content.
To view the names for the included layouts, use the Tooltip feature: position the cursor on an icon in the Layout section (or on any toolbar icon) and its name will be displayed in a small rectangle. In , select the option to get more detailed tooltip information. To select or change the layout of a slide, select the slide in the Slides Pane so that it appears in the Workspace and select the desired layout from the Layouts section in the Sidebar. Several layouts contain one or more content boxes. Each of these content boxes can be configured to contain text, movies, images, charts or tables. You can choose the type of content by clicking on the corresponding icon that is displayed in the middle of the content box as shown in Figure 16. If you intend to use the content box for text, click on Click to add text. Figure 16: Selecting content type Modifying slide elementsA slide contains elements that were included in the slide master, as well as those elements included in the selected slide layout. However, it is unlikely that the predefined layouts will suit all your needs for your presentation. You may want to remove elements that are not required or insert objects such as text and graphics. Although Impress does not allow you to create new layouts, you can resize and move the layout elements. It is also possible to add elements without being limited to the size and position of the layout boxes. To resize a contents box, click on the outer frame so that the resizing handles are displayed. To move it, place the mouse cursor on the frame so that the cursor changes shape. You can now click and drag the contents box to a new position on the slide. To remove any unwanted element:
Changes to any of the layouts included in Impress can only be made using , which is the default. Attempting any changes by modifying a slide master, although possible, may result in unpredictable results and requires extra care as well as a certain amount of trial and error. Adding textTo add text to a slide that contains a text frame, click on Click to add text in the text frame and then type your text. The Outline styles are automatically applied to the text as you insert it. You can change the outline level of each paragraph as well as its position within the text by using the arrow buttons on the Text Formatting toolbar (see Figure 4 and “Outline view” on page 9) or using the Tab key while positioning the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph. For more information on text, see “Adding and formatting text” on page 20. Adding objectsTo add any objects to a slide, for example a picture, clipart, drawing, photograph, or spreadsheet, click on then select from the drop down menu what type of object you want to insert. For more information, see “Adding pictures, tables, charts, and media” on page 25. Modifying the appearance of all slidesTo change the background and other characteristics of all slides in the presentation, you need to modify the master page or choose a different master page as explained in “Working with slide masters and styles” on page 28. A Slide Master is a slide with a specified set of characteristics that acts as a template and is used as the starting point for creating other slides. These characteristics include slide background, objects in the background, formatting of any text used, and any background graphics.
LibreOffice uses three terms for a slide that is used to create other slides: master slide, slide master, and master page. This book uses the term slide master, except when describing the user interface. Impress has a range of slide masters and these are found in the section of the Sidebar. You can also create and save additional slide masters or add more from other sources. See the Impress Guide Chapter 2 Using Slide Masters, Styles, and Templates for more information on creating and modifying slide masters. If all you need to do is to change the background, you can use a shortcut:
Inserting and correctly formatting a background is beyond the scope of this chapter, but you can find all the information you need in the Draw Guide Chapter 4 Changing Object Attributes or in the Impress Guide Chapter 6 Formatting Graphic Objects. Modifying the slide showBy default the slide show will display all the slides in the same order as they appear in the slide sorter, without any transition between slides. You need to use keyboard input or mouse interaction to move from one slide to the next. You can use on the Menu bar to change the order of the slides, choose which ones are shown, automate moving from one slide to the next, and other settings. To change the slide transition, animate slides, add a soundtrack to the presentation, and make other enhancements, you need to use functions in the Sidebar. See the Impress Guide for details on how to use all of these features. Adding and formatting textMany of your slides are likely to contain some text. This section gives some guidelines on how to add text and change its appearance. Text used in slides is contained in text boxes. For more information on adding and formatting text, see the Impress Guide Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text. You can add two types of text boxes to a slide:
Figure 17: Standard toolbar Using AutoLayout text boxes
Using text boxes
You can move, resize, and delete text boxes. For more information, see the Impress Guide Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text. Vertical textIn addition to the normal text boxes where text is horizontally aligned, it is possible to insert text boxes where the text is aligned vertically. Vertical text is available only when Asian languages are enabled in . Click the icon in the Standard toolbar or Text toolbar to create a vertical text box. Figure 19: Creating and editing text boxes Quick font resizingImpress has an icon and a icon on the Text Formatting toolbar (highlighted in Figure 20) to increase or decrease the font size of selected text. The amount by which the font size changes depends on the standard sizes available for the font in use. Figure 20: Quick font resizing on Text Formatting toolbar
AutoLayout text boxes can automatically resize fonts to let the box contain all the text you insert. If you insert a long piece of text, the font size may shrink to fit into the box. Otherwise, the font keeps its default size. Pasting textText may be inserted into the text box by copying it from another document and pasting it into Impress. However, pasted text will probably not match the formatting of the surrounding text on the slide or that of the other slides in the presentation. This may be what you want on some occasions; however, in most cases you want to make sure that the presentation style is consistent and does not become a patchwork of different paragraph styles, font types, bullet points and so on. There are several ways to ensure consistency in your presentation. Pasting unformatted textIt is normally good practice to paste text without formatting and apply the formatting later. To paste text without formatting:
The unformatted text will be formatted with the outline or paragraph style at the cursor position in an AutoLayout text box or with the default graphic style in a normal text box. Formatting pasted textWhen formatting pasted text, you can use the tools available on the Text Formatting toolbar (Figure 21), or the tools available in the Character and Paragraph sections of the Properties deck in the Sidebar (Figure 22). If the Character and Paragraph sections do not automatically open after selecting some text, click on the Properties icon at the side of the Sidebar. Figure 21: Text Formatting toolbar Figure 22: Sidebar Character section If you are pasting the text into an text box, you need to apply the appropriate outline style to the text to give it the same look and feel as the rest of the presentation.
If you are pasting text in a text box, you can still use styles to format the text quickly. Only one graphic style can be applied to the pasted text, as follows:
Creating bulleted and numbered listsThe procedure to create a bulleted or numbered list is quite different depending on the type of text box used, although the tools to manage the list and customize the appearance are the same. In AutoLayout text boxes, the outline styles available are, by default, bulleted lists. For normal text boxes an additional step is required to create a bulleted list. AutoLayout text boxesAutoLayout text boxes included in the available layouts are already formatted as a bulleted list. Create a slide with a bulleted list as follows:
The default list type is a bulleted list. Methods for changing the appearance of a list are explained in “Changing list appearance” on page 24.
Press Shift+Enter to start a new line without creating a new bullet point. The new line will have the same indentation as the previous line. To switch off bullets altogether, click the icon on the Text Formatting toolbar. If the Text Formatting toolbar is not displayed, go to on the Menu bar. Text boxesCreate a bulleted list in a text box as follows:
The default list type is a bulleted list. Methods for changing the appearance of a list are explained in “Changing list appearance” on page 24. Creating a new outline levelIn AutoLayout text boxes, create a new outline level as follows:
In the AutoLayout text boxes, promoting or demoting an item in the list corresponds to applying a different outline style. The second outline level corresponds to Outline 2 style, the third outline level to Outline 3 style, and so on. A change in level and style produces other changes, for example, to font size, bullet type, and so on. In text boxes, a new outline level can only be created by using the Tab key to demote the list entry and the Shift+Tab key combination to promote the list entry.
Do not try to change the outline level by selecting the text and then clicking the desired outline style as you would in Writer. Due to the way that presentation styles work in Impress, it is not possible to change the level in this way. Changing list appearanceYou can fully customize list appearance by changing the bullet type or numbering for the entire list or for only a single entry. All of the changes can be made using the Bullets and Numbering dialog (Figure 23), which is accessed by going to on the Menu bar or by clicking on the icon on the Text Formatting toolbar. For the entire list:
Figure 23: Bullets and Numbering dialog
If the list was created in an AutoLayout text box, then an alternative way to change the entire list is to modify the Outline styles. Changes made to the outline style will apply to all the slides using them. Adding pictures, tables, charts, and mediaA contents box can contain pictures, tables, charts, or media as well as text. This section provides a quick overview of how to work with these objects. For more information on adding pictures, tables, charts, or media, please refer to the Impress Guide. Adding picturesTo add a picture to a contents box:
When resizing a graphic, right-click the picture. Select from the context menu and make sure that is selected. Then adjust the height or width to the size you need. As you adjust one dimension, both dimensions will change to keep the width and height ratio the same, ensuring that the picture will not become distorted. Remember also that resizing a bitmap image will reduce its quality; it is better to create an image of the desired size outside of Impress. Adding tablesTo add basic tables to a slide:
Selecting from any of the styles in the Table Design section in the Sidebar creates a table based on that style. If you create a table by another method, you can still apply a style of your choice later. The Table toolbar in Impress offers the same functions as the Table toolbar in Writer, with the exception of the calculation functions Sort and Sum. To use Sum and Sort in your presentation, you have to insert a Calc spreadsheet. After the table is created, you can modify it by adding and deleting rows and columns, adjusting width and spacing, adding borders, background colors and so on. For more information on working with tables see the Impress Guide Chapter 3 Adding and Formatting Text and the Writer Guide Chapter 9 Working with Tables. Figure 24: Sidebar Table Design section Entering data into table cells is similar to working with text box objects. Click in the cell you wish to add data to and begin typing. To move around cells quickly, use the following keyboard options:
Adding chartsTo insert a chart in a slide:
Adding media filesTo insert media files, such as music and movie clips, in a slide:
Adding graphics, spreadsheets, and other objectsGraphics, such as shapes, callouts, and arrows, are often useful to complement the text on a slide. These objects are handled much the same way as graphics in Draw. For more information, see the Draw Guide Chapter 7 Getting Started with Draw, or the Impress Guide Chapters 4, 5, and 6. Spreadsheets embedded in Impress include most of the functionality of Calc spreadsheets and are capable of performing extremely complex calculations and data analysis. If you need to analyze your data or apply formulas, these operations are best performed in a Calc spreadsheet and the results displayed in an embedded Calc spreadsheet or even better in an Impress table. Alternatively, go to on the Menu bar. You can select from options that include a LibreOffice 5.0 Spreadsheet. This opens a spreadsheet in the middle of the slide and the menus and toolbars change to those used in Calc. You can start adding data, though you may have to resize the visible area on the slide. You can also insert an existing spreadsheet and use the viewport to select the data that you want to display on your slide. Impress offers the capability of inserting into a slide various other types of objects such as Writer documents, Math formulas, Draw drawings, or another presentation. For details on using these objects, refer to the Impress Guide Chapter 7 Including Spreadsheets, Charts, and Other Objects. Working with slide masters and stylesA slide master is a slide that is used as the starting point for other slides. It is similar to a page style in Writer and it controls the basic formatting of all slides based on it. A slide show can have more than one slide master.
LibreOffice uses three terms for a slide that is used to create other slides: master slide, slide master, and master page. This book uses the term slide master, except when describing the user interface. A slide master has a defined set of characteristics, including background colors, graphics, gradients; and other objects (such as logos, decorative lines and so on), headers and footers, placement and size of text frames, and text format. StylesAll of the characteristics of slide masters are controlled by styles. New slides that you create using a slide master have styles that are inherited from the slide master which was used. Changing a style in a slide master results in changes to all slides based on that slide master, but you can modify individual slides without affecting the slide master.
Although it is highly recommended to use the slide masters whenever possible, there are occasions where manual changes are needed for a particular slide, for example to enlarge the chart area when the text and chart layout is used. Slide masters have two types of styles associated with them: presentation styles and image styles. The prepackaged presentation styles can be modified, but new presentation styles cannot be created. For image styles, you can modify the prepackaged styles and also create new image styles. Presentation styles affect three elements of a slide master: background, background objects (such as icons, decorative lines, and text frames), and text placed on the slide. Text styles are further divided into Notes, Outline 1 through Outline 9, Subtitle, and Title. The outline styles are used for the different levels of the outline to which they belong. For example, Outline 2 is used for the sub-points of Outline 1, and Outline 3 is used for the sub-points of Outline 2, and so on. Image styles are not restricted and can affect many of the elements of a slide. Note that text styles exist in both the presentation and image style selections. Slide mastersImpress comes with a collection of slide masters. These slide masters are shown in the Master Pages section of the Sidebar (Figure 25), which has three subsections: Used in This Presentation, Recently Used, and Available for Use. Click the + sign next to the name of a subsection to expand it to show thumbnails of the slides, or click the – sign to collapse the subsection to hide the thumbnails. Each of the slide masters shown in the Available for Use list is from a template of the same name. If you have created your own templates, or added templates from other sources, slide masters from those templates will also appear in this list. Creating a slide masterCreating a new slide master is similar to modifying the default slide master.
Figure 25: Sidebar Master Pages section Figure 26: Master View toolbar Applying a slide masterTo apply a slide master to all the slides in your presentation:
To apply a different slide master to one or more selected slides:
Loading additional slide mastersSometimes, in the same set of slides, you may need to mix multiple slide masters that may belong to different templates. For example, you may need a completely different layout for the first slide of the presentation, or you may want to add to your presentation a slide from a different presentation (based on a template available on the hard disk).
Figure 27: Slide Design dialog Figure 28: Load Slide Design dialog
The slide masters you have loaded will also be available the next time you load the presentation. If you want to delete the unused slide masters, click the corresponding checkbox in the Slide Design dialog. If the slide master was not used in the presentation, it is removed from the list of available slide masters.
To limit the size of the presentation file, you may want to minimize the number of slide masters used. Modifying a slide masterThe following items can be changed on a slide master:
For more information on modifying slide masters, see the Impress Guide Chapter 2 Using Slide Masters, Styles, and Templates.
Any changes made to one slide when in Master View mode will appear on all slides using this slide master. Always make sure you Close Master View and return to Normal view before working on any of the presentation slides.
The changes made to one of the slides in Normal view (for example, changes to the bullet point style, the color of the title area, and so on) will not be overridden by subsequent changes to the slide master. There are cases, however, where it is desirable to revert a manually modified element of the slide to the style defined in the slide master. To revert back to default formatting, select the element and select from the Menu bar. Figure 29: Editing a slide master Adding text, footers, and fields to all slidesA slide master can have text, footers, or fields added so that they appear on every slide in your presentation. Headers are not normally added to slides. Text
FootersTo add a footer to your slides:
Normally only footers are used on a slide. To create a header, you can use a text box as explained in “Text” on page 33.
