Menus for presentations Buttons for common presentation tasks
Controls window Use to add and organize slides and master slides, and to set slide show options.
The presentation environment is new in AppleWorks 6. In a presentation document, you can do everything you can do in a drawing document and much more, including organizing slides visually and drafting speaker's notes. You can hide specific slides so you can use the same presentation for different audiences, add special slide transitions such as the "fade out" and "fade in" effects, and include movie or sound files.
See this presentation example:

Beyond the Basics This section introduces you to some popular things you can do with AppleWorks: integrating different types of content in a document using frames, adding tables to your documents, determining the way items interact with text, and exchanging documents between different computers and applications.
Integrating Different Kinds of Content in a Document (Frames)
There are a number of ways to include different kinds of content within your document, depending on what you want to do. To create paintings, spreadsheets, sections of text, or tables in a document of a different type, you start by selecting a frame tool and then dragging in your document to create a frame. For example, to paint in a word-processing document, you create a painting frame. How frames work in a document: m When you select the frame, the drawing menus appear in the menu bar so you can manipulate the frame. m Choose Insert from the File menu and select the file (or drag it to your document). m Choose Text Wrap from the Options menu and choose a text wrap style. m Choose Text Wrap from the Options menu and choose a text wrap style.
File
Object or frame in another document or application, or an item from Clippings or Mac OS Scrapbook
To remove the text wrap effect, select the item and then choose Text Wrap from the Options menu and select None.

Exchanging Documents Between Different Computers and Applications
Exchanging documents between different computers and applications is easy because AppleWorks includes document translators that automate conversion from a variety of formats (including the Windows and Macintosh versions of AppleWorks). AppleWorks preserves as much as possible of the original document's colors, layout, and other formatting.
Opening a Document From Another Application or Computer
To open a document from another application or computer:
1 2
If the document is on another computer, copy it to your computer. (See "Methods for Transferring a Document From One Computer to Another, " below. ) Open the file as usual. Note: If the file cannot be translated, try choosing a generic file format--for example, Text or RTF for word-processing files. For more information, see "Opening a document" in the "AppleWorks basics" section of AppleWorks Help.
Saving a Document so That It Can Be Opened in Another Application
To save a document so that it can be opened in another application:
1
Choose Save As from the File menu and enter a name for the file. Note: If you're saving a document on a Macintosh for use on a Windows computer, be sure the Windows extension ". CWK" (or ". CWS" for template files) is at the end of the filename. From the Format pop-up menu, choose a format that is accepted by the other application. For more information, click "Saving a document" in the "AppleWorks basics" section of AppleWorks Help, then click "file format" to see "Types of file formats that AppleWorks can read. "
