Powerpoint Indents

Hi

In the course we learnt about the indents, which seem similar to word. However, on powerpoint I have found that although the top triangle (first line indent?), bottom triangle (second line indent?) and the bottom box all start in alignment, if you move the bottom triangle out you then cant seem to line it up again. Powerpoint seems to stop it abour 1/4" or so, and wont go back into alignment. Is there any way to get round this?

Thanks

Kevin

RE: Powerpoint Indents

Hi Kevin

Thank you for your question regarding indents.

The bottom triangle (second line indent) should automatically snap to the measurement markers on the ruler.

The alternative is to hold down the Ctrl key whilst sliding the second line indent marker along the ruler, this allows for a much smoother movement, allowing you to be more precise in measurements.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.


If you require further assistance, please reply to this post.

PowerPoint tip:

Quick Zooming in Powerpoint with rollerball mouses

Zooming in powerpoint works slightly differently than with word and excel. When you hold down the control key and roll the wheel up and down in will go through the zoom sizes up until 66% which you can choose from the zoom box, but after that it starts jumping up at 25%, 50% and then 100%.

TIP - if your cursor is not on the slide and in the slide/outline pane then when you zoom using CTRL it will zoom that pane instead.
