<%= [wp_help_header "Editing Presentations"] %>
This is the main page of WimpyPoint's authoring interface - from
here you can access a wide variety of features to edit your presentation
(or view the finished product).
The Slide List
To preview a slide as it will look in the finished presentation, click its title.
To edit or delete the slide, follow the corresponding link to the right of the
title. To add an image to your slide, or to upload a file which you want linked
from the slide (called an "attachment"), follow the attach link.
You can insert a new slide at any point in the presentation by following the
Insert link pointing between the appropriate two slides, or add a new slide
at the end by following the Add link.
For a screen allowing you to arbitrarily reorder your slides, follow the link
entitled Change order of slides.
Options
To view the presentation, follow one of the Show presentation
links. Click done in the upper-right corner of the presentation's
table of contents to return to the editing screen.
Show presentation, viewing comments from collaborators and "edit" links
differs from Show presentation in that it
- displays collaborators' comments on slides and allows you to add your own comments, providing
feedback to others working on the presentation with you.
- displays links in the upper-right corner of slides allowing you to edit or delete slides.
To change the presentation settings which specified when the presentation
was created (e.g., the presentation's title, whether it is public, etc.), click Edit presentation properties.
To set which slides appear in the presentation's table of contents, and when context breaks
are displayed, click Adjust outline and context breaks.
If you're having a bad day, devoid of creative thought, you might just want to
blatantly steal slides instead of creating them: click on one of the Bulk-copy slides links.
If you want to hose your presentation, click Delete this presentation. Be careful, though:
once you delete a presentation there's no way at all to get it back! (This option is only available
to a presentation's owner.)
Viewers/Collaborators
This section lists the users allowed to view or edit the presentation. If you own a presentation,
you can add or remove people from this list by following the
Change people who can view/edit this presentation link at the bottom.
Versioning
Versioning allows you to permanently preserve the current set of slides in your presentation. It's especially useful before you
invite someone to work on your presentation - if he or she messes things up, you can always revert to a previous version.
If you own a presentation, you can Freeze the slide set, i.e., preserve its current state.
Once the slide set has been frozen, you can view a frozen version of the presentation by selecting it
from the pull-down menu and clicking one of the Show buttons. If you want to roll back all
changes to the slides, you can select an old version and click Revert.
