Draw in a presentation
- [Instructor] Drawing directly on your slides when giving a presentation can help direct your audience's attention or emphasize a point. To start your presentation, go to the slideshow tab and click on From Beginning. When you get to a slide that you want to write on, move your mouse until you see icons in the lower left-hand corner. Click on the pen icon and then select Pen. Draw on your slide as you would with pen and paper. Select the pen icon to choose a different color. To turn off the pen, either hit the escape key or go back to the toolbar and click on the pen icon to deselect it. If you make a mistake, select the eraser tool and click on the ink annotation. You can also delete all ink by clicking on Erase All Ink on Slide. When you finish your slideshow, you'll be given the choice to keep or discard your ink annotations. I will choose Keep. Back in editing mode, you can select ink annotations like any other object on your slide to move, delete, or scale them.
