Create an outline of your Keynote presentation

You can use outline view in Keynote to get your ideas into a presentation quickly. You can set titles, add bullets and rearrange any of the slides. You can switch from outline view at any time to make further edits to your presentation, such as setting the build order. 

1. In the presentation manager, tap the add button  at the top of the screen. If you're currently editing a presentation, tap the Presentations button  to open the presentation manager.
2. Tap Start an Outline.
3. Enter a title for the first slide.
4. To create a new slide, tap the New Slide button  or press Return twice.
5. To add subtitles or bullets to a slide, tap a slide, then tap Return on the keyboard.
6. To reorder a slide, tap and hold a slide thumbnail, then drag it to a new place. You can change the indent level of a slide or bullet with the Indent  and Outdent  buttons.
7. To change the slide layout, tap the Format button , then choose a new layout.
8. To close outline view, tap the View Options button  or the More button , then tap Slide View or Light Table. Or double-tap a slide thumbnail.
