<normalViewPr> (Normal View Properties)

This element specifies the view properties associated with the normal view mode. The normal view consists of three content regions: the slide itself, a side content region, and a bottom content region. The content of the side content region and bottom content region is determined by the generating application. Properties pertaining to the positioning of the different content regions are stored in this element. This information allows the application to save its view state to the file, so that when reopened the view is in the same state as when the presentation was last saved.

A vertical splitter bar separates the slide from the side content region. A horizontal splitter bar separates the slide from the content region below the slide. If the presentation is set to left-to-right, the side content region is to the left of the slide. If the presentation is set to right-to-left, the side content region is to the right of the slide.

Attributes

Description

<horzBarState> (State of the Horizontal Splitter Bar)

Specifies the state that the horizontal splitter bar should be in when in normal view mode. The region to be maximized or minimized is the side content region.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_SplitterBarState simple type (§4.8.23).

<preferSingleView> (Prefer Single View)

Specifies whether the user prefers to see a full-window single-content region over the standard normal view with three content regions. If enabled, the application may choose to display one of the content regions in the entire window.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

<showOutlineIcons> (Show Outline Icons in Normal View)

Specifies whether the application should show icons if displaying outline content in any of the content regions of normal view mode.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

<snapVertSplitter> (Snap Vertical Splitter)

Specifies whether the vertical splitter should snap to a minimized state when the side region is sufficiently small. The specific parameters of this behaviour are left to the generating application.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

<vertBarState> (State of the Vertical Splitter Bar)

Specifies the state that the vertical splitter bar should be in when in normal view mode. The region to be maximized or minimized is the slide region.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_SplitterBarState simple type (§4.8.23).
