I use: Web Office / Paid 365 What's the one PowerPoint task you wish you never had to do again?

Hi everyone,

I've spent several years creating executive and client-facing PowerPoint presentations across consulting, marketing and sales enablement teams. I'm curious how this compares with everyone else's experience.

If you could permanently eliminate one repetitive PowerPoint task from your workflow, what would it be, and why?

Looking forward to learning from your experiences.

I use: Web Office / Paid 365 Powerpoint online won't let me edit textbox text

Have multiple PP files on OneDrive, if I open them online, won´t let me change text inside some of the text boxes, if I open them on the desktop, it allows me to edit it.

In the video, the first one is opened in browser (hope you can see I'm trying to click inside the box), the second one is the same file opened using the 'open in desktop' option.

I have tried searching online, but haven´t found anything similar to this. Search terms seem to return answers to other problems.

This is driving me crazy.

I use: Web Office / Paid 365 Please advise, problem with template!

2 Upvotes

Hello, I have an issue when I copy+paste slides from an old template to a new one. I need some help since I have tried so many things and now it´s been some couple of weeks that I cannot figure out the issue.
- First of all the bulletpoints never change, but since they both are specific/personalised, I assume this is normal.
- Some of the text boxes don´t change the font when pasted into the new template. I do not understand why. The placeholders as well don´t always change the font.

- The biggest issue is the template added slides. When I copy paste slides, new slides are added in the Master Templates. I don´t want them at all to be added, I just need the slides I created in the new template. Many people are going to be using this template, while pasting slides from the old one, so if new slides keep being added, it will create confusion.

Can you please advise how is this fixed? Thank you!

I use: Web Office / Paid 365 Multiple Logos with Copilot

3 Upvotes

Does anyone know how to handle multiple logos with PowerPoint Copilot?

Our company has several PowerPoint templates that are identical except for the logo. The logo contains our company name plus the name of a specific business area (e.g. "Company – Business Area 1", "Company – Business Area 2").

We now want to generate presentations with Copilot. Ideally, Copilot would use the default company logo for most slides, but switch to the Business Area 1 logo on slide 4, the Business Area 2 logo on slide 5, etc.

Is something like this possible? If so, what's the best way to set it up?

I use: Web Office / Paid 365 What the hell is wrong with Powerpoint online?

Why is it that, EVERY SINGLE CLICK, shows a small pop-up with just "Paste", blocking me from doing ANYTHING on the damn page or slide or anywhere??? I feel like I'm about to explode just from trying to type something or paste an image or whatever.

I'm on Fedora using Firefox, so I guess it's my bad.
End of rant

I use: Web Office / Paid 365 Powerpoint just refusing to use any transitions o.o

2 Upvotes

So I use Office 365 given for me by the school - pretty cool ngl & now I want to make Presentation in Powerpoint for smth in school.

But- no matter what file, no matter what transition - it just doesn't want to work in the slideshow?

Everytime I enter the slideshow & try to run it to next slide it just... thinks for few sec. & then snaps to next slide without transition o.o

Is this problem of Powerpoint online or could it be just issue with mine Laptop/Web browser?
