How to present two PowerPoint Presentations (side-by-side)

• PowerPoint Tutorials
• Shortcuts & Hacks
• February 1, 2024

Yes, you can run two PowerPoint presentations at the same time from your computer. This dogged me for years until I realized how easy this was to setup in PowerPoint.

As you begin to do deals overseas, work with international clients and investors, you will eventually be asked to run two different translations of your PowerPoint presentation, at the same time on the same monitor. When I was working in China, I was asked to do this all the time. That is, showing both an English and Chinese version of our deal, at the same time as you can see below.

To be clear, PowerPoint presentations by default, run as full screen slides. That is, after starting your slide show, your slides take up the entirety of your screen, monitor, or overhead projector.

The trick to running two PowerPoint presentations at the same time is to change the default behavior of how PowerPoint runs your presentations in slide show mode. That is, you need to change them to run as individual windows that you can resize and rearrange. In this way, you can present two or more presentations at the same time, on the same screen.

Presenting two or more presentations at the same time is useful when you need to:

• Present the same presentation in two different languages (or for two different audiences)
• Compare two different presentations side-by-side in Slide Show mode
• Run a presentation on half of your screen, while you add speaker notes in the other half

NOTE: When running two presentations at the same time on your computer, each presentation needs to be advanced individually. On top of that, some of the presentation tools like the pen and highlighter do not work when running multiple presentations at the same time. See below for further details.

Setting up two presentations to run side-by-side

Setting up two presentations to run like this is easy in PowerPoint. Just remember to change the settings back before you send your presentation to your boss or client.

Once you change how PowerPoint runs in Slide Show mode, it remains that way until you change it back to its default.

If you send your client a deck that runs differently than they expect, I guarantee they will send it back to you and tell you that PowerPoint is broken. This has happened to be a couple of times over the years, so that is a friendly reminder for you.

1. Open the Set Up Slide Show dialog box

To open the Set Up Slide Show dialog box, simply:

• Click the Slide Show tab
• Select the Set Up Slide Show command

You can also shortcut the process by holding the Shift key on your keyboard and clicking the Reading Pane icon at the bottom of your PowerPoint screen.

NOTE:  Once you have your two or more presentations setup to run as individual windows, you can use the Windows snap shortcuts to quickly arrange the windows on your screen. To learn how to use these Windows shortcuts and more,  read my guide here .

2. Select Browsed by an individual (window)

The goal of this step is to get your presentations to run in a resizable window as pictured below. This allows you to then run and resize as many presentations as you want on the same monitor.

To present multiple presentations at the same time like this, you need to change the default behavior from Presented by a speaker (full screen) to Browsed by an individual (window) .

Once you’ve made the selection, click OK to return to the Normal View in PowerPoint.

3. Snap your two slide shows into place on your computer

In the image below, I’m using the Windows snap feature options at the top of my screen. To open these, simply click and drag your window to the top of your screen to display them.

After you have changed both of your PowerPoint presentations to run in individual windows, snap the two presentations into place, in the order you want them to display in. The easiest way to do this is to use the Windows snap features at the top of your screen. In this case, I’m using the side-by-side view.

As you do this, make sure you put the presentations in the order you want them to present in. In this case, I’ve put the English version of my presentation on the left, and the Chinese version on the right.

NOTE: You can alternatively start your slide shows first, and then snap them. Once your presentations are set to run as individual windows, is doesn’t matter which order you do this in.

4. Start your two slide shows individually

Once your two presentations are set up the way you want them, all you need to do is start your presentations. The easiest way to do that is to hit F5 on your keyboard. To see alternative ways to start your presentations (including shortcuts), see my guide here .

Below is an example of two 16×9 presentations running side-by-side in slide show mode. My computer monitor is not large enough to show each Slide Show well in the 16:9 format, but you get the idea of how this works.

NOTE: There is no easy way to flip between the 4:3 and 16:9 slide sizes without messing up your presentation. To see why, see my slide size guide here .

NOTE: You can still use the PowerPoint laser pointer shortcut when running two presentations side-by-side. The laser pointer works, but only if you use its shortcut.

Advancing side-by-side slide shows

Now that you are running two or more presentations on the same monitor, your next question is going to be “Can I advance both presentations at the same time?”

Unfortunately, each slide show must be advanced on its own. There is no way to advance both PowerPoint presentations with the single click of your mouse. Instead, you need to click into each presentation individually and advance it.

NOTE: The number of Slide Show commands is limited when running two presentations at the same time. For example, you cannot draw on your PowerPoint slides , and can only use a limited number of commands in the right-click menu.

You are all set for doing international deals now! The next time you are pitching a client and your boss asked you to get two translations of your presentation running at the same time, you will know how to set it up using the Set Up Slide Show dialog box.

Just remember that when running presentations in an individual windows like this, there are a limited number of slide show commands you can use, and you need to advanced each presentation separately.

How to view multiple slides from same Powerpoint presentation simultaneously?

I want to be able to do:

• View two slides from same PowerPoint presentation simultaneously
• Edit these slides

My current workflow is to just make the far left "Slides" pane large enough I can see the content for the non-active slide and then jump back and forth as needed. This is somewhat annoying, though, because small text is not readable as you can only make this pane so large.

It would be great to not have to do this, but rather be able to more easily edit/view them simultaneously.

• microsoft-powerpoint-2010

• I'm trying to do something similar - specifically, these slides are meant to be used to make a booklet of some kind... Any success with this? –  Michael Merchant Jul 2, 2014 at 20:47

There is a "View" tab, and then there is a "New Window" button. Just click it and place the two windows side by side.

• 1 Maybe you could add that the New Window button automatically creates a second instance of the already opened PowerPoint file –  nixda Dec 29, 2014 at 10:42
• But this is not in the same window. Isn't there any way to see more than a slide in a MS Powerpoint window? When you zoom out, it is very useful to see other slides in a continuous manner. –  Alisa Jan 3, 2016 at 17:08
• There's no such button in PowerPoint for Mac. –  mjaggard Jan 15, 2019 at 15:21

In Powerpoint for Mac, open the top menu named "Window" (the menu, not the ribbon), and select "New Window".

I found a much better solution for Mac users:

• In PowerPoint click the print button and go to print preview screen.
• Go to layout and select 6 pages per sheet etc.. if you want to view 6 slides.
• Click the pdf button on bottom left and just save it as a PDF.

• I think the other Mac solution is better because it allows copying objects between slides easily. –  mjaggard Jan 15, 2019 at 15:55

The answer is very simple and easy.

Open your PowerPoint file. Open your other Powerpoint file.

Now you only see the last one. Correct?

OK, go to view and click on Cascade.

Now you see both. Correct?

Adjust the files so you see them parallel next to each other>

Advice: stretch your page to the full screen so you can enlarge your text for better view.

• 2 You haven't mentioned how to open the second file. Since it is the same file as already open, a simple double-click doesn't work –  nixda Dec 29, 2014 at 10:44

Lead3's suggestion may or may not work, depending on the version of PPT you have.

Basically, though, open one of your presentations, then open the other.

Then choose Window, Arrange All (if in PPT 2003 or earlier) or View tab | Window group | Arrange all if in PPT 2007 or later.

Are you looking to enhance your PowerPoint skills?

In this tutorial by Regina Griffin, a teacher in Oregon, US, we will explore the various features and functions of PowerPoint.

From creating a new presentation to arranging slides and using visual aids effectively, this article covers everything you need to know.

Stay tuned to learn how to view two slides side by side in PowerPoint and pick up some tips for creating an effective presentation. Let’s get started!

Key Takeaways:

• To view two slides side by side in PowerPoint, go to the View tab and click on the “View Side by Side” option.
• Using the “Arrange All” feature in PowerPoint, you can view multiple slides at once and compare them for consistency and flow.
• By viewing two slides side by side, you can easily identify any inconsistencies or errors in your presentation and make necessary changes.

What Is PowerPoint Used For?

PowerPoint is a versatile software application developed by Microsoft, primarily used for creating visually engaging presentations.

It offers a wide range of tools that allow users to design and customize slideshows with ease. Users can incorporate images , text , charts, graphs, animations, and multimedia elements to make their presentations dynamic and interactive.

One of the key features that make PowerPoint a popular choice for presentations is its user-friendly interface and intuitive design tools. With a simple drag-and-drop functionality, users can arrange content, apply templates, and create professional-looking slides within minutes.

PowerPoint provides various built-in themes, transitions, and effects to enhance the visual appeal of presentations, making them more engaging and impactful.

How To Open PowerPoint and Create a New Presentation

To open PowerPoint and create a new presentation, launch the application and select the option to create a new slideshow.

Once you have launched PowerPoint, you will be greeted with a welcoming screen. This screen gives you several options to start your project. To begin creating a new presentation, click on the ‘Blank Presentation’ option or explore the template gallery for pre-designed slide layouts.

After selecting the desired option, you will enter the main PowerPoint interface. Here, you can customize the overall design of your slides by choosing from a variety of slide layouts located in the ‘Layout’ tab.

Next, start adding content to your slides by selecting the ‘Insert’ tab, where you can incorporate text, images, charts, tables, and other multimedia elements with ease.

How To Insert Slides in PowerPoint

Adding slides to your PowerPoint presentation is essential for organizing your content effectively and presenting information in a structured manner.

There are various ways you can insert new slides into your PowerPoint presentation. One option is to click on the ‘New Slide’ button in the ‘Slides’ group on the Home tab. This will add a new slide based on the default layout chosen. Another method is to right-click on an existing slide in the thumbnail pane and select ‘New Slide’ from the context menu.

If you want to duplicate an existing slide, simply right-click on the slide you wish to duplicate and choose ‘Duplicate Slide’. This will create an identical copy of the selected slide.

Once you have added or duplicated slides, you can rearrange the order by dragging and dropping slides in the slide thumbnail pane. To customize the content of each slide, you can click on the placeholders and type in your text or insert images, charts, or multimedia elements.

What Are the Different Slide Layouts Available?

PowerPoint offers a diverse range of slide layouts to cater to different presentation styles and content needs.

For instance, title slides provide a professional introduction to your presentation, setting the tone for what’s to follow. They often include the title of your presentation, your name, and any relevant affiliations.

On the other hand, content slides are versatile and commonly used for presenting textual information, bullet points, and data. Image-focused layouts, as the name suggests, prioritize visual elements, ideal for showcasing photographs, diagrams, or graphics.

Additionally, multi-column designs allow for a more organized display of content, enabling you to present information in a structured and easily digestible format.

How To Duplicate Slides in PowerPoint?

Duplicating slides in PowerPoint allows you to create multiple copies of the same slide for consistent content or design elements across your presentation.

When you duplicate slides in PowerPoint, you save valuable time by avoiding the need to recreate each slide from scratch. It is an efficient way to maintain a cohesive visual identity throughout your presentation, especially when there are specific layouts, logos, or backgrounds you want to replicate.

Duplicating slides can streamline the editing process. For instance, if you have a template slide with certain placeholders, duplicating it ensures that all subsequent slides retain the same format, minimizing errors and ensuring a professional finish.

How To Arrange Slides in PowerPoint

Arranging slides in PowerPoint allows one to control the flow and structure of a presentation, ensuring a logical progression of content.

When arranging slides, keep in mind the story you want to tell. Begin by outlining the key points you intend to cover and the order that best conveys your message. Consider starting with an engaging introduction to captivate your audience’s attention. Next, strategically place supporting information in a clear and organized manner.

Grouping slides into sections can assist in segmenting complex topics and enhancing the audience’s understanding. Use PowerPoint’s Slide Sorter view to easily drag and drop slides into the desired sequence. Remember to maintain a consistent visual theme throughout to create a cohesive and professional look for your presentation.

What Are the Different Ways To Arrange Slides?

PowerPoint offers multiple methods for arranging slides, including manual reordering, using slide sorter view, and grouping slides into sections.

Manual reordering allows users to simply drag and drop slides into their preferred sequence, offering full control over the slide order.

Slide sorter view provides a visual representation of all the slides in the presentation, allowing for easy rearrangement by clicking and dragging them into place.

Grouping slides into sections is perfect for categorizing related content, making it easier to navigate through the presentation and focus on specific topics.

How To Rearrange Slides in PowerPoint?

Rearranging slides in PowerPoint allows you to adjust the order of your presentation content to improve flow and coherence.

To rearrange slides, open your PowerPoint presentation and navigate to the Slide Sorter view, which provides a comprehensive overview of all slides. You can easily move slides by clicking and dragging them to the desired position. Another method is to use slide thumbnails at the side of the screen for quick navigation and rearranging. Simply click on a slide thumbnail and drag it to the new location. This visual approach makes it efficient to reorder your slides and ensure a logical sequence for your presentation.

How To View Slides in PowerPoint

Viewing slides in PowerPoint is essential for reviewing your presentation content, checking for errors, and ensuring visual consistency.

There are several ways to view slides in PowerPoint, each offering unique benefits for different purposes. In Normal View, you can easily edit individual slides, add content, and adjust formatting. Slide Sorter View allows you to quickly rearrange slides, helping you organize the flow of your presentation. Lastly, Presentation Mode enables you to see how your slides will appear to the audience, with options for rehearsing timings and transitions. By utilizing these various view modes, you can efficiently create, organize, and deliver impactful presentations.

What Are the Different Ways To View Slides?

PowerPoint provides users with various display modes to view slides, including normal view , outline view , and slide sorter view .

In normal view, users can see one slide at a time, enabling detailed editing with access to several tools and features for precise adjustments.

The outline view displays the slide content in a simplified text format, allowing users to focus on the structure and content flow.

Slide sorter view presents miniature versions of all slides in a grid layout, facilitating easy rearrangement and organizing slides visually. By utilizing these different viewing options, individuals can efficiently manage their presentation layout, content, and overall design based on their specific requirements and preferences.

How To View Two Slides Side By Side in PowerPoint?

Viewing two slides side by side in PowerPoint enables users to compare content, design elements, or transitions between slides for a more detailed analysis.

By opening two slides simultaneously, users can easily ensure continuity in design choices, evaluate visual impact, and maintain a coherent narrative flow throughout their presentation. This feature is particularly beneficial for checking alignment, consistency in font styles, and color schemes across multiple slides.

Comparing two slides side by side allows presenters to spot any potential errors or discrepancies in content placement, enabling them to make necessary adjustments seamlessly. It also facilitates a quick overview of the overall structure and organization of the presentation, aiding in refining the delivery and enhancing audience engagement.

Tips for Creating an Effective PowerPoint Presentation

Creating an effective PowerPoint presentation involves utilizing visual aids, transitions, fonts, and colors strategically to engage your audience and convey your message effectively.

Visual aids, such as images, charts, and graphs, can help simplify complex information and make it more understandable for your audience. Incorporating relevant visuals can increase comprehension and retention of key points.

Transitions between slides play a crucial role in maintaining the flow of your presentation. Use subtle transitions to smoothly shift between ideas and prevent abrupt jumps that might distract or confuse your audience.

When selecting fonts, opt for clean, readable typefaces that ensure your content remains accessible. Avoid overly decorative fonts that might hinder readability, and maintain consistency in font styles throughout your presentation.

Color choice is not just about aesthetics; it can also influence how your message is perceived. Use colors that complement each other and create a visually appealing contrast to highlight key information or main points.

How To Use Visual Aids Effectively?

Utilizing visual aids effectively in a PowerPoint presentation can enhance audience engagement, clarify complex concepts, and make your content more memorable.

When selecting visual aids for your presentation, it’s crucial to choose images, charts, graphs, and multimedia elements that complement your message rather than distract from it.

Ensure that the visuals align with the tone and key points of your presentation to reinforce the information you are delivering.

By integrating relevant visual elements strategically, you can convey information more effectively and create a visually compelling experience that enhances audience understanding and retention.

How To Use Transitions and Animations?

Incorporating transitions and animations into your PowerPoint presentation can add visual interest, highlight key points, and create a dynamic delivery experience for your audience.

Transitions are used to smoothly move from one slide to another and can be chosen based on the flow of your content. For instance, a ‘Fade’ transition can be perfect for a subtle shift, while a ‘Cut’ transition may signify a more abrupt change. On the other hand, entrance animations can bring elements onto the slide, like text flying in or images appearing gradually.

Exit animations, such as ‘Fade Out’ or ‘Zoom Out’, can be effective in guiding the audience’s focus towards the next point or conclusion. A key tip is to use transitions and animations judiciously to avoid overwhelming your audience and instead enhance the overall message delivery.

How To Use Fonts and Colors?

Choosing the right fonts and colors for your PowerPoint presentation is crucial for maintaining visual consistency, readability, and aesthetic appeal.

When selecting fonts, it’s essential to consider readability, avoiding overly decorative or complex fonts that might hinder comprehension. Simple and clear fonts such as Arial, Calibri, or Helvetica are commonly recommended for body text, while a bolder font can be chosen for headings to create contrast.

Color schemes play a significant role in enhancing the overall design. Opt for a harmonious color palette that complements your content rather than distracts. Consider using a tool like the color wheel to find complementary or analogous colors that work well together.

View 2 presentations side by side

May 7, 2010 by Ellen Finkelstein 32 Comments

Have you ever wanted to compare two PowerPoint 2003 or 2007 files side-by-side? You’ve probably done it in Microsoft Word many times. You just open the two Word documents and drag one of them to the side.

But when you try that in PowerPoint, it doesn’t work. The entire application window moves. So how to you see both presentations at the same time?

Instead, go to View tab> Window group> Arrange All. (You can also choose Cascade and then move and resize the windows as you want.) In PowerPoint 2003, choose Window> Arrange All.

PowerPoint-view two presentations side by side

Here’s the result:

Result: view 2 presentations side by side

In PowerPoint 2010, you can drag the two (or more) presentation windows, like you can in Word.

Awesome tip!!

Wow, why do people give advise when they don’t know what they’re talking about? don’t you understand that you are misleading people? I have come across so many posts where people give advice and are not even sure if its the right advise. This individual is simply looking for a way to view two documents side by side. Stop telling him to click view, arrange all. that does not open two documents side by side. it opens two documents within power point. In addition, don’t mislead people and tell them it cant be done, when in reality, it very well …  Read more »

Dear creativeny1, The instructions I give do work. It’s true that in 2003 & 2007, you don’t get separate windows (you do in 2010), but you can still see your presentations side by side. Try the instructions, and you’ll see that they work. I’ve tested them.

It would be good to keep your comments less harsh; we’re all trying to provide good and useful information. Ellen

Ellen, Thanks! I’ve been trying to figure this out for a while in the new versions of powerpoint and excel. Very clear instructions.

Ellen, Protech is correct. The two separate files show up side by side but you cannot go through the slides locked together in 2003. In order to view slides side by side you have to go back and forth between the two windows and move seperately. I have a peeve about the question not being understood.

Yes, but you can still see them both. This is a limitation of 2003 and the tip explained a way to see both presentations at the same time. Yes, you have to move separately in each window. Thank goodness, the latest version makes it easier.

Open your PowerPoint file. Open your other Powerpoint file.

Now you only see the last one. Correct?

OK, go to view and click on Cascade.

Now you see both. Correct?

Adjust the files so you see them parallel next to each other>

Advice: stretch your page to the full screen so you can enlarge your text for better view.

Younis, The blog post applies only to 2003 and 2007 and I mention Cascade as one of the solutions. Choosing Arrange All also works.

Cheers Ellen. problem solved for all on this aspect.

So, from what all are saying, it is impossible to view two documents side by side without having two monitors? I have presentations in english and spanish I like to side by side but it takes me hours to cut and paste each paragraph in each language, arrange font, etc., etc. YOu would think they would have come up with a way to do this by now. It would be easier to just be able to view the documents side by side. I tried the instructions the first person left and got lost after “drag the document to the side”! …  Read more »

What if you want to see two slides of the SAME FILE next to each other, just like you can do this in MS-Word?

Thank you all. I found the solution. so simple.

Open a Power Presentation document.

Go to view click on Cascade adjust your document to fit on one side of the window as it now spreading all over the current window, leaving space for your next document.

Open your next document, you will see it overlapping the adjusted first document.

adjust this last document to fit on the other side of the window.

Now you have two documents side by side.

You open more and more if you can view them all at once.

If not clear please let me know.

None of you have a solution… Nothing works… ‘adjust this last document’ whatever do you mean?

Thanks a lot! I have been needing this information for a long time.

very useful thank you

Comparing two PowerPoint 97 .ppt files in WindowsXP. Open two (or more) .ppt files. Hit ctl-F5. Resize & reposition desired. Alt-V + D to see Slide Sorter. I do it all the time. Lesky

My mistake, I’m using WinXP with PowerPoint 2003. But I think I used to do it with PP 97.

When I hit “arrange all,” the ppts show up off-set about 1/2 inch to the right side of the screen. I have to manually move each one over that 1/2 inch before I can see all of both ppts. This has been the case for me for the last several versions of ppt. (Currently working in Office 365/2016.) I can’t find this problem mentioned any where on the internet. Any clue what I’m doing wrong?

I don’t have that experience. Are both files maximized before you arrange them? It could be an issue with the resolution or monitor display setting, too.

Yes, maximized. Doesn’t matter which computer I work on or which monitor I use. Has been happening for years.

Don’t suppose anyone can help me. I like and want to keep 2003 powerpoint. I use to have this feature but recently a computer guy had to reinstall this software and now I can only have one document open at a time. I like to toggle back and forth. Any direction would be appreciated.

It does open them side by side – but you can’t move back and forth between the two.

How to Compare Two PowerPoint Presentations

3-minute read

• 1st May 2019

Microsoft PowerPoint is widely used for creating slideshow presentations in business and education . But how do you compare two versions of a presentation? And is there a way to flag edits in a PowerPoint file? Let us introduce the Compare and Comment functions in PowerPoint.

The Compare Function

You may need to compare two versions of a PowerPoint presentation to see the differences between them (e.g., if a colleague has edited it directly without noting the changes). And the quickest way to do this is with PowerPoint’s built-in Compare function. To use this:

• Open the original version of your presentation.
• Go to Review > Compare .
• Click Compare to open a browser window.
• Select the edited version of the presentation and click Merge .

You will then enter Review Mode . This will open the Reviewing Pane , which shows a list of all edits in the presentation at the right of the screen.

Reviewing Edits in a PowerPoint Presentation

• Slide Changes – A list of edits on the current slide.
• Presentation Changes – A list of changes made to the presentation as a whole.

Clicking the edits in either section will take you to the relevant part of the presentation and bring up a list of individual changes. You can then review each edit in turn:

• Select an edit from the list to view it, or select  All changes to… to see all edits from part of a slide (e.g., every change made in a text box ).
• To reject an edit after you’ve viewed it, simply deselect it.

Finally, when you’ve finished reviewing edits, click End Review .

All selected edits will then become part of the open document, so don’t forget to save it after reviewing.

Commenting on a PowerPoint Presentation

If you are editing a PowerPoint presentation, rather than relying on the Compare function, you can track changes between versions using the Comment tool . To do this:

• Place the cursor at the point of the edit or issue you want to highlight.
• Go to Review > Comments and click New Comment .
• Add your comment text in the Comments pane.

You can then view comments either via the Comments pane or by clicking the comment icons within the presentation. And you can delete comments by clicking the ✘ icon in the Comments pane or by right clicking the comment icon on the slide and selecting Delete Comment .

You can also reply to comments in a PowerPoint presentation. To do this:

• Select a comment or click Show Comments .
• In the Comments pane, click Reply…
• Add your response to the original comment.

You can then repeat this process to reply to a reply on a comment (and so on). This can be useful if a presentation goes through several rounds of editing, as it allows each editor to provide feedback. And don’t forget to have your work checked by a professional to ensure it’s error free.
