This approach makes sense because viewing slides in Slide Show view gives an entirely different perspective than editing them in Normal view. Further, it’s easier to reorder and work with multiple slides in Slide Sorter view, and make changes to individual slides in Normal view.

PowerPoint 2019 for Windows continues providing several views that enable you to view and edit your slides. Unarguably, Normal view is the default and most often used view. This view displays one slide at a time in the Slide Area, and is used mainly for editing and creating slides, and shows PowerPoint’s typical tri-pane interface that includes the Slides Pane, the Slide Area, and the Notes Pane. If you cannot see the Slides Pane in Normal view, scroll down this page to read a tip that will help you restore that pane.

This approach makes sense because viewing slides in Slide Show view gives an entirely different perspective than editing them in Normal view. Further, it’s easier to reorder and work with multiple slides in Slide Sorter view, and make changes to individual slides in Normal view. All put together, PowerPoint 365 for Windows provides you with ten different views.

Even better, did you know that these suggestions also show for pictures you insert via the cool Photo Album feature—you can thus literally create a photo book from hundreds of pictures in mere minutes!
