Powerpoint, compare, tracked changes

Hello, Is there a way to make tracked changes in PPT, in a similar way to Word? Thanks

RE: powerpoint, compare, tracked changes

Hi Lisa

You can make track changes in PPT 2010 but not in 2007.

Suppose you have 2 presentations PPT A and PPT B where changes have been made in PPT B.

1. Open PPT A and select Review tab, Compare.
2. Select and open PPT B.
3. The changes appear as Markup and a Reviewing pane appears on the right of the screen displaying PPT B as a slide or you can see the detailed changes.

You can also hover over the pencils to see what's changed.
The Next and Previous buttons are like in Word where you can navigate to each change and accept or decline the change or accept/decline all changes.

In PPT 2007 you can only track inserted comments rather than compare any changes between 2 presentations.

Please pass on to Brenda!

PowerPoint tip:

Display pictures inside shapes

Here is a suggestion for adding a professional touch to your presentations: displaying pictures within shapes. This can look particularly good if you use pictures within circles or stars.

To create this effect, draw a shape on your slide from the Drawing toolbar.

Click on the Fill Color button found on the Draw Toolbar usually found at the bottom of the screen; or alternatively right-click on the shape and select 'Format Autoshape'.

Select the Fill Effects option then the Picture tab. Use the 'Select picture' button to find the picture on your computer, then click Insert. Selecting the 'Lock picture aspect ratio' helps to keep the picture in proportion.
