PowerPoint allows you to have bulleted text within a bulleted text list. In other words, you can have bulleted text under a bulleted text item. Although this is technically feasible, slides really don’t provide enough information for this level of detail. Typically, this sort of information should be spoken information that you provide as you are talking about the slide.
The Move Up and Move Down Outlining toolbar buttons let you move text up and down. To move a line of text up, select the text and then click the Move Up button. To move text down, select the text and then click the Move Down button.
If you move bulleted text up or down, you simply rearrange the bullet points. However, if you move slides up and down, you rearrange the order of the slides in the presentation. The Collapse and Expand buttons allow you to show more outlining detail or to hide outlining detail
. To hide the lower levels of an outline—those levels below the slide title level—select the portion of the outline you want to hide. Then click the Collapse button. (The Collapse button shows a minus sign.)
