Introduction to PowerPoint Online
PowerPoint Online is part of Microsoft's Office Online suite, designed to offer users access to its most well-known applications directly through a web browser. This platform mirrors the functionality of the desktop app, allowing users to access documents stored online or shared with them easily.
Accessing PowerPoint Online
To begin using PowerPoint Online, navigate to your Office home page. Here, you will find a dedicated menu for Microsoft PowerPoint, where you can access blank templates and documents for creating new presentations. Additionally, Microsoft recommends documents that may be useful for your work.
Managing Your Documents
The last section of the PowerPoint menu includes all your Microsoft PowerPoint files, whether stored online by you or shared by coworkers. You can manage these files using right-click options similar to those on the Office home page. Features include filtering and searching presentations using keywords. Clicking below the filename will direct you to its storage location.
Automatic Saving and Interface Overview
One of the key features of PowerPoint Online is its automatic saving capability, which saves your presentation as soon as you make edits. Upon opening the app, you will encounter the upper headband, which serves as a link between PowerPoint Online and the entire Office suite. This menu allows you to open other apps or return to the Office portal with a single click.
Document Management Features
In the upper headband, you can change the name of your document and, if permitted, adjust its storage path. The search bar is a powerful tool that not only helps you find documents and contacts but also allows you to search for app features. For instance, if you want to add an animation, simply type your query in the search bar to find the relevant feature.
Using the Ribbon and Collaboration Tools
PowerPoint Online displays a simplified ribbon by default, but you can switch to a classic ribbon for a more comprehensive set of tools. The ribbon includes buttons for sharing the workbook, adding comments, and viewing modification history when collaborating with coworkers on a presentation.
