Learning to Use Keynote To get the most from Keynote, consult these resources:
User's Guide
This guide describes the features of Keynote and shows you how to use it. A full-color, PDF file of this guide can also be found at www.apple.com/support/keynote.
Onscreen Help
To see the help, choose Keynote Help from the Help menu in Keynote. You can browse through the table of contents to find a specific topic, or enter a question in the search field to find an answer about how to accomplish a task. Help tags are also available for many of the items in the Keynote window and the inspectors. To see the help tags, let the pointer rest over an item for a couple of seconds.
Sample Document
Keynote comes with a sample document that demonstrates the robustness and flexibility of this application. You can use the designs and elements used in this document to enhance your own presentations by copying and pasting bullets, chart styles, and background images, or by employing the same layouts and object build styles.
To open the Keynote sample document:
m In Keynote, choose File > Open Samples.
Quick Reference Card
The quick reference card lists keyboard shortcuts for Keynote as well as at-a-glance notes about how to use the inspectors.

To find out about Keynote products and get up-to-date information:
m Choose Help > "Keynote on the Web."
Technical Support
A variety of support options are available to Keynote users. For more information, see the AppleCare Software Service and Support Guide that comes with your Keynote documentation or visit www.apple.com/support on the web.
The Keynote Window The Keynote window contains three sections--the slide canvas, slide organizer, and the notes field--that let you see detailed views of your slides and slideshow as you work. It's easy to keep your slides organized and navigate through even long slideshows.
The slide canvas is where you design each individual slide. Type text or drag files from other applications. Customize the toolbar to include the tools you use most often.
Organize your slides by creating a visual outline of your slide presentation. You can choose to view a graphical thumbnail of each slide or a text outline.
Add notes about individual slides in this field. You can refer to these notes during your presentation, though viewers won't see them.

Chapter 1
Slide Canvas
The slide canvas is where you design each slide. You can easily drag graphics files, movie files, and even sound files to the canvas to add them to your slideshow. You create a slideshow using a theme, which lets you work with a family of master slides to create a handsome and cohesive look throughout your presentation. Different master slides within each theme make it easy to add titles and bulleted text in effective visual layouts. As you work on designing your slides, you may want to zoom in or out to get a better view at what you are doing.
To zoom in or out on the slide canvas:
m Choose a zoom level from the pop-up menu at the bottom left of the slide canvas. Or you can choose View > Zoom > [zoom level].
Slide Organizer
You can organize the slides in your presentation using the slide organizer at the left side of the Keynote window. The slide organizer allows you to "indent" your slides so that you can group them as you work. You can also choose to hide slides that you don't want to appear in your slideshow. For more information about using the slide organizer, see "Organize your slides" on page 26. The slide organizer has two views: navigator view, which is most useful for graphics-intensive presentations, and outline view, best for text-heavy presentations.
Navigator View
In navigator view, the slide organizer displays a thumbnail image of each slide in your presentation, which makes it easy to see the flow of graphics-rich presentations. To help you organize your presentation as you work, you can group slides by indenting them, creating a "visual outline" of the entire slideshow. Disclosure triangles allow you to show or hide groups of slides. You can also "skip" slides so that they will not appear when you present your slideshow.
To show navigator view:
m Choose View > Navigator (or click View and choose Navigator in the toolbar).
Welcome to Keynote

You can also drag the bar at the top of the navigator view to see the master slides. Use the master slides to design your own themes and master slide layouts. For information about designing your own themes and master slide layouts, see Chapter 9, "Designing Your Own Master Slides and Themes."
Drag the bar at the top of navigator view to reveal the master slides above.
Click the disclosure triangles to show or hide groups of indented slides.
Drag slides to indent them. This helps you organize them while working on your presentation.
