PRESENTATIONS Creating a presentation Capturing slides Reviewing Slides Setting a Slide Title
CREATING PRESENTATIONS Capturing slides includes: The current camera position/extent The current basemap The visibility of the various map items (what’s on, what’s off) Any popup windows that are opened and their size and position Does not include: Individual properties of a map item (symbol, transparency, etc) Application level settings (navigator position, vertical exaggeration, stars, fog, etc.)
EDITING SLIDES Delete the slide from the map Hide the slide: this keeps the slide in the map, but skips it during the presentation Re-capture the slide: this replaces the selected slide with the current state of the map
