In-line Navigation Template
In-line style typically features a strip of navigation at the bottom of regular content slides. This strip may be composed of either text links or picture thumbnail links (as shown in the examples below). As the presenter jumps from one content slide to another, the links remain fixed in place and always visible, regardless of what content appears above. Having this kind of random access to individual slides within a collection of related slides is extremely useful for showing specific product offerings, reviewing or previewing concepts during a teaching session or simply highlighting particular concepts during public speaking events.
What makes In-line style especially attractive to many speakers is the fact that the navigation strip acts like a cheat sheet, constantly displaying all slide options available in the show. In other words, the presenter doesn't have to try and remember what slides are coming up later in the presentation. A preview of all slides is visible at any time, and any of those slides can be chosen in any order—or skipped entirely. As such, the presenter has complete flexibility to control the length of a talk and the amount of information shown.

In-line navigation can have either text-based or thumbnail-based navigation elements (see examples below). Some people prefer thumbnail links because the small pictures give presentation materials a professional look, show previews of available slides and occupy less space—enabling more links per area. Others prefer text links, especially in certain situations. Text links require less time to make and modify, don't increase file size and are better if many slides in a show look alike—for example, when slide content is mostly bullet points, tables and so forth. A rule of thumb: If slides contain a lot of visually descriptive pictures or graphics, go with thumbnails. Otherwise if slides are mostly text, use text links.
