Have you wondered about how your paragraphs get positioned as a bulleted list within PowerPoint? How is the indenting space calculated, and how can you make changes that can alter those spaces? These changes are essentially influenced by three types of Indent Markers. Of the three Indent Markers you can see on the Ruler, the Hanging Indent Marker is used to tweak the position of the paragraph following the bullet.

Paper Planes represent aims, ambitions, goals and targets–and you can use these paper plane graphics in your slides to denote any such achievement.

Custom Slide Shows, as indicated by their name itself, are Slide Shows customized by the user. The purpose of creating a Custom Slide Show is to display only selected slides from your presentation, without deleting the slides you do not want to show. To understand a Custom Slide Show, think of your individual slides as songs — then a Custom Slide Show is a playlist of those songs! Even better, since this is like a playlist, you do not have to delete the slides that are not used. And there’s more — you can create any number of Custom Slide Shows from a single presentation!

You get another part of our Irregular Shapes series — this 9th series has larger, curved shapes. We then discuss why bar charts work better than column charts, especially if you have longer axis labels. We explore slides with video Countdown Timers.

We then explore the Learning Dashboard in Adobe Presenter, another add-in for PowerPoint. PowerPoint 2013 users can learn about copying text attributes with the Format Painter. We also look at reordering Sections, and indent markets for bulleted lists. PowerPoint 2011 for Mac users can learn about reordering Sections and comparing / merging presentations.
