How to Navigate While Viewing Your PowerPoint Slideshow

Being able to navigate in PowerPoint is an important aspect of the presentation.

Navigating your way through your PowerPoint slide show can be nerve-wracking if you want your PowerPoint presentation to go well. The easiest way to go backward and forward in a presentation is to use a keyboard. However, going forward with a mouse away from the computer is also possible. However, if you need to go backward, it is a little more complicated than just using the keyboard. If you are going to use a mouse, you should just use it to move the presentation forward so you do not need to right-click and manually select the slide to go to.

Instructions

1. Press the right arrow button on your keyboard to move the presentation forward.

2. Press the left arrow button on the keyboard to move the presentation backward.

3. Click the left mouse button to move the presentation forward.

4. Click the right mouse button to show the presentation menu. From here you can select "Slides" and go to a specific slide, either backward or forward in the presentation.
