Annotating Presentation

Hi,
How can I add annotation notes to my presentation while it is running and save the notes for the next time I run the presentation ?

RE: Annotating Presentation

Hello Richard,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft PowerPoint introduction course with Best STL.

Thank you for your question regarding Annotating your presentation.

Whilst the presentation is running move your mouse pointer to the bottom left corner of the screen. Here you will find a button that looks like a pen. Clicking this button opens an easy to use menu. Use whichever style you want and then your mouse changes from an arrow to a ballpoint pen, a felt tip pen or a highlighter.

Now perform your annotation then stop the presentation running. PowerPoint will ask if you wish to keep or discard your annotations.

Take a look at the slide/s that now contain annotation. You can remove annotation by clicking on the drawing/text and pressing delete.

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. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Rodney

PowerPoint tip:

Blank The Screen During a Presentation

You sometimes need eye-to-eye contact with your audience, so to remove the temptation of the presentation screen behind you, blank out the screen.

Ctrl+B blacks the screen out, and use it again to continue.

Ctrl+W whites the screen, but be careful not to use this in a dark room. You may blind your audience with a strong white light.
