You can view slides in a presentation as slide images within the slide area, slide descriptions, thumbnails (small images), text slide lists, and as a full-screen slide show in a separate window. You can also view chapters in the slide area if they are available in the presentation. Slide descriptions, text slide lists, and chapters can be read by text readers like GW Micro Window-Eyes®.

Update navigation view
When you are navigating through the slides using a view other than the slide images view (text, thumbnails, chapters), by default, once you select a slide the Viewer begins playing at the point the selected slide appears in the presentation and the slides return to the slide image view.
To prevent the Viewer from returning to the slide image view when you are navigating through a presentation's slides in a different view, select Options > On Navigate Display > Current View.
To return to the default slide navigation settings, select Options > On Navigate Display > Slide Show.
