Term explanation
Live online training is a synchronous learning format in which an instructor leads a session in real time via video conferencing or webinar platforms. Participants join from different locations and interact with the trainer and fellow learners through chat, polls, breakout rooms, and Q&A. Unlike pre-recorded e-learning, live online training maintains the immediacy and interactivity of in-person training while removing geographic barriers.
SlideLizard LIVE integrates directly with Microsoft Teams and PowerPoint: run live polls, quizzes, and Q&A sessions during your online training — so remote participants stay as engaged as those in the room.

Learn moreMaster View in PowerPoint allows presenters to edit the Slide Master — a top-level template that controls the default fonts, colors, backgrounds, and layouts applied across all slides in a presentation. Changes made in Master View propagate automatically to every slide that uses that layout, making it the most efficient way to apply brand guidelines and maintain visual consistency across large presentations. Master View is essential for template creation and company-wide design standardization.
Learn moreA virtual event is an event that takes place entirely online, with all participants joining remotely via digital platforms. Virtual events range from webinars and online conferences to virtual trade shows, networking events, and team celebrations. They eliminate geographic and logistical barriers, allowing global participation at low cost. Successful virtual events invest in interactivity — live polls, Q&A sessions, breakout rooms, and networking features — to compensate for the lack of physical presence.
Learn moreSlide transitions are visual effects that play when moving from one slide to the next during a PowerPoint presentation. They range from simple fades and cuts to more elaborate animations like wipes, pushes, and morph effects. Used thoughtfully, transitions can reinforce the flow of a narrative and add polish to a presentation. Overusing dramatic transitions, however, can distract from the content. Consistency — using the same transition style throughout — is generally recommended for professional presentations.
