View Slides
You can view slides individually using VSLIDE. To view a series of slides for a
presentation, use a script file.
Be careful about using editing commands while you view a slide, which looks
like an ordinary drawing. Editing commands affect the current drawing
underneath the slide but not the slide itself.
Some commands may force redrawing, which removes the slide from display.

1 At the command prompt, enter vslide.
2 In the Select Slide File dialog box, select a slide to view and click OK.
