When you create or import a slideshow, you may end up with slides that you don’t want to show, but you don’t necessarily want to delete either. Maybe you just want to temporarily hide a slide in a Google Slides presentation.
Although it’s not an obvious feature, you can hide a slide and show it again later in just a few steps.
How to hide a slide in Google Slides
After visiting Google Slides, signing in, and opening your presentation, you can hide a slide using skip slide characteristic. Also, you can do this in any view.
Step 1 – Select the slide you want to hide.
- In the Filmstrip, which places slide thumbnails on the left side, select a slide to highlight it.
- In Grid view, which displays slide thumbnails in a grid layout, select a slide to highlight it.
- In normal view, which shows only one slide at a time, press Above either below arrow on the keyboard or move around with the mouse or trackpad until you land on the slide.
Step 2: Go to slide eyelash.
Step 3: Choose skip slide.
Step 4 – Alternatively, you can right-click a slide in the filmstrip or grid view and select skip slide in A shortcut Menu.
When you skip a slide, this places an eye icon with a line through it, hiding it from the presentation.
You can still work on or move the slide that you skip in the slide show. This allows you to keep it out of the presentation but continue editing it.
How to hide multiple slides
If you have more than one slide that you want to hide from your presentation, you can skip multiple slides at once. This saves you from manually going through the slides one by one.
Step 1: Show the filmstrip with View > show filmstrip or enter grid view using View > grid view.
Step 2 – Select the slides you want to hide to highlight them.
- To select adjacent slides, select the first one and hold down Change button and select the last one.
- To select non-adjacent slides, select the first one and hold down Control on windows or Domain on the Mac and select each additional slide.
Step 3: Go to slide eyelash.
Step 4: Choose skip slides.
Step 5: Alternatively, you can right-click on one of the slides and select skip slides in A shortcut Menu.
You will then see an icon with an eye and a line on each slide you skipped. These slides are not displayed when you present your slideshow.
How to show a slide in Google Slides
When you’re ready to show the slides you’ve hidden or skipped, you can follow the same process as above to show them.
Step 1 – Select the slide or all slides you want to show.
Step 2: Go to slide eyelash.
Step 3: Choose Skip slide(s) to remove the check mark.
Step 4 – Alternatively, you can right-click a slide or group of slides in the Filmstrip or Grid view and select Skip slide(s) in the context menu to remove the check mark.
This then removes the icon from the slides and displays it in your presentation.
How to show a slide during a presentation
You may have hidden a slide and then decided to show it during your presentation. You can show a skipped slide when you use presenter view in Google Slides.
Step 1 – When you’re ready to launch, choose Slideshow dropdown box in the upper right corner and select exhibitor view.
Step 2 – You will see the main browser window with a slideshow and a smaller window that allows you to control the slideshow.
Step 3 – In the control window, select the dropdown box in the upper left corner that shows the slide numbers. You’ll see your hidden slides, each with the familiar eye icon with a line through it.
Select the skipped slide you want to show and it will appear in your presentation.
Step 4 – When you’re done with that slide, select the next one you’d like to present from the dropdown box and continue your slideshow as usual.
You can keep unfinished slides or those you’re saving for another audience hidden and show them when you’re ready. Take advantage of this Google Slides feature!
