Powerpoint

What are macros

RE: powerpoint

Hello Jessica

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

A macro is a series of steps that have been recorded and are played/run to automatically carry out those same steps, without a person having to manually carry out those steps.

The advantage of creating macro is that it speeds up the carrying out of tasks that you frequently perform in an application.

Kind regards
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Capture Screenshots in Powerpoint 2010

A great new feature to Powerpoint 2010 is the "screen clipping" command. This allows you to capture an image on your screen directly via powerpoint.

Go to your insert tab on the ribbon and in the images box you will see "sreenshot", click on the arrow and select "screen clipping". Powerpoint will minimise and you will be taken to the next open application or your desktop. Wait a few seconds a your screen will grey out a little and your mouse curser will turn into a + sign. Hold your mouse down and select the area you wish to capture. When you let go of your mouse the selected area will be exported into your powerpoint presentation as an image which you can edit.

It really simple and very effective, give it a go!

This feature is also available on Excel and Word.
