Presentation Mode in Visio

Presentation mode is used for presentation in Visio. Presentation is very important in general. Mostly, we design presentations in Microsoft PowerPoint but we can design presentations in Visio. If our presentation is mostly included a flowchart, content, and other data then we can design our presentation in Visio.

When we click on Presentation Mode then only a page will appear and we can present our presentation in Visio. Shortcut Key for Presentation Mode "F5".

We can see only the page where we have insert data in Visio. Nothing is visible in Visio like the ribbon tab, shape pane, and format pane in Visio.

Guides, Grid, Ruler, and Page Breaks 

Guides: Turn on guides that help align objects, shapes, and pictures in the document. Guides are dragged out from the horizontal and vertical rulers. If our rulers are not visible then we can't drag our guides.

We can see the ruler, guide, and grid in Show. we have to check all boxes from the show group then we have to drag and drop the guide from the ruler and we will insert it where we want to insert it for aligning shapes in our Visio document.

We can see the blue line and we have placed these three red shapes aligns with the help of guides. If we want to insert a horizontal guideline then we have to drag and drop the guide's line from the upper ruler. If we want to insert a vertical line then we have to drag and drop guidelines from the left-hand side ruler. If we want to delete the guideline just click on the guideline then press the Delete button the guideline will be deleted automatically from our Visio document.

Grid: The grid lines make it easy to align objects with text, other objects, or a particular spot. We can see the small boxes below the flowchart are grid lines with this line we align objects, shapes, and text.

Gridlines are an important fact for aligning purposes. Mostly we use grid lines or guidelines for aligning objects in our Visio document.

Ruler: Rulers are important for measurement in Visio. We can use guidelines from rulers and we can show and hide rulers in Visio.

Page Breaks: Page breaks have their own value if we are working in our Visio drag then we increase the no. of the page then page breaks show the dotted line between each page in Visio.
