How do i remove the background on a picture in powerpoint to make it transparent? There used to be a wand-function in Office 2003, this seems to have gone in 2007

RE: PowerPoint

Dear Nanna

Thank you for attending Excel Advanced course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

This option is still there. When you insert a picture I hope you are aware that a contextualized tab called Picture tools appears.

On the left hand side you will see Recolor drop down arrow.

Choose Set Transparent colour option which is the same as the pen you used to have in PowerPoint 2003.

I hope this has answered your query.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!

Kindest Regards

Microsoft Office tip:

Short cut tips

Instead of just seeing the default setting of screentip names, when you place the mouse pointer over the toolbar, you can also see the keyboard short cut for accessing the button as well.

To this click on Tools, Customise, options tab.

Under Other you will see the option of Show shortkeys in screentip
