Abstract
A method and system for organizing slides and providing navigational elements within the slides using a presentation application is provided. The presentation application automatically generates an organized set of linkable slides corresponding to subheadings provided by the creator. Prompting a presentation creator to initially consider the presentation structure and provide subheadings that relate to broad concepts within the presentation assists in preventing a potential massive reorganization of the presentation after content has been added.
