• The next slide is in the preview window on the right

• Use your arrow keys to change slides forward or backward

• There is a timer showing the length of your show

• Click End Show in the upper left-hand corner of the screen

  

• You will be asked if you want to save the new slide timings

• If you are happy with your recording, click Yes. If you want to re-record it, choose No

• To turn your presentation into a movie, go to File> Export

• Name, choose a location and save your presentation as an MP4 file which can be played on many devices
