Real-time data displayed on your slide’s screen is informative to look at, and not too difficult to achieve. Microsoft PowerPoint is certainly the most widely used tool to create presentation slides. When combined with the DataPoint add-in from PresentationPoint, you can bring real-time data to your slides or slideshows.
You can easily connect a text box, chart, or table to your factory production figures or KPIs (key performance indicators), and have it updated at regular intervals–every 200 milliseconds, or every minute, depending on your needs. In our Nobody Knows How to Display Real-Time Dashboards in PowerPoint article, we showed you DataPoint’s great capability of showing dynamic dashboards, but here in this article, we will show how you can use text boxes and assign dynamic rules to their values.
