Special feature slide 1
After opening Impress and the Default template only slide 1 is available without bullets.
If you create a second slide ( Ctrl + M ), it already contains bullets.
Used presentation
The presentation used for this video was created based on the standard template.
To bypass the different behavior of Slide 1 and Slide 2, a Slide 2 was created and Slide 1 was deleted.
Thus, all slides will later behave the same with respect to the bullets.
Font size adjustment
If you write text and it does not fit into the field in one line, then the font size is automatically changed.
If you then enlarge the field, the font size may also be changed back to increased.
Bullet points in the structures/levels
You can use different characters as bullets in the individual outlines.
View/edit bullets of the outlines
With the file "Bullets in Impress - LO70.odp" open, click on in the sidebar.
In the slide in the "Object Area for Autolayouts" the outline with the assigned bullets is displayed.
If you now place the cursor in the text of an structuring level, you can select the following in the "Text Formatting" toolbar "Toggle Bulleted List>More Bullets..." and select a desired bullet for the outline level.
