Cory Jim started designing presentations in the US military for top secret combat operations in Iraq in 2003. He had to learn really quick and be extremely accurate, precise, and clear as to what information was included in each presentation. Not so much design, but more efficiency. Shortly after, he went on to pursue graphic design in 4 different colleges in Hawaii. Learning from various books and studying the other professionals in the industry, he quickly picked up his own style and technique. Cory founded Empowered Presentations with his business partner, Yancey Unequivocally, in 2010 based out of Honolulu, Hawaii.
In this conversation, Cory talks about Smoke, his winning entry in SlideShare‘s World’s Best Presentation Contest 2010.

If you have lots of shapes and other slide objects placed one above the other on your PowerPoint slide, you’ll find that some shape or slide object may be hidden or overlapped. In this scenario, you can use the options within the Order command to bring any shape or slide object right on top of all others, or even send it behind everything else on your slide.

Presentation designers have requirements that are different from anyone else who just presents or even creates slides several times a month. They need to create slides every single day, and any time saved for them by not having to do repetitive tasks, or even having some assets available at the click of a button can be a lifesaver. Efficient Elements, a PowerPoint add-in that contains tons of useful options can be that lifesaver.

Nudging a shape or any other slide object is essentially moving it just a wee bit using the arrow keys on your keyboard rather than the mouse. Move is different in that it is more of a super-nudge, and you can use the mouse to move rather than just nudge. PowerPoint provides more than one way to nudge or move any selected shape or slide object.
Learn how you can nudge or move a shape or any other slide object in PowerPoint 2010 for Windows.
