You can change this setting on the Slide Show tab of the PowerPoint ribbon: PowerPoint assembles it for you by gathering the notes you've typed for each slide and pairing them with a set of controls for navigating through your presentation.īy default, PowerPoint is set to use Presenter view when you run a slide show. Presenter view isn't something you have to create. You can also change the size of the text in the Notes pane by using the two buttons at the lower left corner of the Notes pane: The text wraps automatically, and a vertical scroll bar appears if necessary. If you need to add or delete something, simply click in the text box to edit it. In Presenter view, you can see your notes as you present, while the audience sees only your slides: When your computer is connected to a projector and you start the slide show, Presenter View appears on your computer's screen, while only the slides appear on the projector screen. Tip: You can add notes either while you’re presenting, directly from Presenter view, or as you’re editing your presentation. For information on how to add speaker notes to while editing your presentation, see Add speaker notes to your slides.
