How-to Guide
1. Open multiple presentation windows
Entry point: Open multiple presentation files in WPS Slides first
- Open WPS Slides.
- Open the first presentation.
- Open a second presentation or more.
- Confirm that multiple presentation windows are already open.
Success Criteria
- UI state: Two or more presentation windows are open on the desktop.
- Next actions: You can go to the View tab and use Rearrange Window.
Tips While Using
- Common mistakes: If only one presentation is open, the rearrangement effect will not be obvious.
- Environment limits: Prepare the files you want to compare in advance.
2. Use Rearrange Window to choose a layout
Entry point: View tab > Rearrange Window
- In any open presentation window, click the View tab at the top.
- Find and click Rearrange Window.
- Select the layout you need.
- Choose Tile Horizontal, Tile Vertical, or Cascade based on your current task.
Success Criteria
- UI state: Multiple presentation windows are rearranged in the selected layout.
- Next actions: You can directly review, compare, or copy content across windows.
Tips While Using
- Common mistakes: If you do not confirm that multiple windows are open first, you may not notice an obvious change after clicking the command.
- Environment limits: When more windows are open, each window will have a smaller visible area.
3. Return to a normal viewing layout
Entry point: The maximize button in the upper-right corner of the window, or manual window adjustment
- After comparison is complete, select the presentation window you want to focus on.
- Click the maximize button in the upper-right corner of the window.
- If needed, drag other windows manually or close the ones you no longer need.
- Return to a single-window view or another layout that better fits your editing task.
Success Criteria
- UI state: The target presentation returns to a larger single-window view.
- Next actions: You can continue editing, presenting, or saving the file.
Tips While Using
- Common mistakes: Do not expect the previous position of every window to be restored automatically after rearrangement; manual adjustment is usually still needed.
