It&#8217;s often good to be able to divide the slides into smaller groups and work with them in these situations. To do this, PowerPoint, adds the concept of sections. The following are the main functions that sections can perform:<\/p>\n<h3>Creating Section in PowerPoint<\/h3>\n<p>The steps to create a section are as follows. You can create a section from the Normal as well as the Slide Sorter view.<\/p>\n<p>1. Right-click the position where you want to add the section in the Normal view or the Slide Sorter view and select the add section.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-104320\" src=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add.webp\" alt=\"Powerpoint section add\" width=\"1920\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add.webp 1920w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add-1536x768.webp 1536w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add-720x360.webp 720w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add-520x260.webp 520w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/section-add-320x160.webp 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/a><\/h4>\n<p>2.

You can also rename the section later by right-clicking on the section name and pressing Rename.<\/p>\n<h3>Rearranging the sections in PowerPoint:<\/h3>\n<p>One of the benefits of using sections is that you can group slides together and rearrange them as a single set. You can move the entire section instead of moving each slide individually. You may drag and move the sections just like you can with slides. Also, you can right-click the section and click on the move it up or down option, as illustrated below.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-104323\" src=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section.webp\" alt=\"powerpoint move section\" width=\"1920\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section.webp 1920w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section-1536x768.webp 1536w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section-720x360.webp 720w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section-520x260.webp 520w, https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/move-section-320x160.webp 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/a><\/h4>\n<h3>Collapse or Expand section in PowerPoint:<\/h3>\n<p>To collapse or expand a section, simply click on it.
