RE: timing

Hello Dina

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Rehearse timing is a feature you can use to run your presentation while you are practicing what you are going to say when each slide comes up.

What it does is that it records the amount of time you have a slide up on the screen, so that you can then play the slide show and PowerPoint will change the slides for you using the timings recording whilst using Rehearse timing.

To use Rehearse Timing, go to Slide Show and click Rehearse Timings.

I hope this helps.
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Reduce PowerPoint file sizes

In PowerPoint, images often take up a lot of space which can lead to difficulties when it comes to emailing files. Luckily PowerPoint does contain some tools to help deal with this issue.

1. Disable the Fast Save feature - so that any changes you make will be immediately reflected in the file size. Go to Tools > Options > Save and deselect 'Allow fast saves'.

2. PowerPoint has an inbuilt compression tool, which is located on the Picture Toolbar.

If the Picture toolbar is not visible on your screen, go to View > Toolbars > Picture.

To compress or reduce the size of a picture, select the picture then click the Compress Pictures button on the Picture Toolbar. You can also right-click on a picture to access the option to compress it.
