I was collecting here several different tips which I have discovered during my research and my teaching, and I wanted to share the best of them with you. I am also taking the opportunity to announce through this issue of MasterView that my company, IKONOS New Media, is looking for a Presentation Trainer to join and support my increasingly demanding position. I am indeed eagerly looking forward to find a fine candidate, that I can train and coach in becoming a skilled trainer/facilitator like me. Requirements for this position are not what you would normally expect for a Computer Trainer. I look in fact for talented young people, possibly with a university degree and high fluency in English, that have great presence and communication skills. Computer know-how is of course a must, but much of the specific technical content and even the training delivery methods have to be learned anew for anyone. If you think you know someone that could be a potential candidate, please do not hesitate in dropping me a note at: Simone.Luchini#ikonosnewmedia.com Applications are open now and the position is available immediately. For more details check the Official Announcement at: http://masterview.ikonosnewmedia.com/announcement.htm I would like to wish you a great end of summer and a merited rest time, in order for all of you to be in full shape when back to business by September. Simone Luchini MasterView Executive Editor ============================================================== A) *Advanced options in PowerPoint* ============================================================== In this article, I have referred to PowerPoint 2002 (XP) version, but most of the options I will introduce can be found also in the previous versions, and almost in the same location. I wanted to explain here what is important in the "Options" and "Customize" menus under "Tools". This is usually the place where you find advanced options that let you customize your software and get the best of it. Let's see in detail what you can obtain from fully utilizing these PowerPoint advanced functions. "TOOLS >> CUSTOMIZE" MENU Click on "Tools" >> "Customize" Under the first tab, "Toolbars", you can decide which toolbars to show (like "View" >> "Toolbars") and you can also create your custom toolbar by clicking on "New". You can then customize this new toolbar by inserting all of your preferred icons by using the second tab, "Command", and by dragging those icons into the new toolbar. You can then drag the new toolbar wherever you need it on the screen, or place it close to the other toolbars at the top or bottom of the screen. Finally, in the third tab, "Options", you will find something that you will like. Have you ever wondered why, since the 2000 version of MS Office, the menus were showing only a few voices in the list, and you had to click on the down arrow at the end to be able to see the others? Well, that option was created to show only the recently used commands, so that it would have been easier not to get confused by too many entries in the menu lists. Nevertheless, I know many people who don't like this feature, and I personally don't either. Here is where you can finally change it and go back to a regular menu choice which lists all the entries, regardless of their previous use. By the way, the trick to work around this issue, without changing these options, is to double-click on the chosen menu in the Menu Toolbar. Doing this, the menu would display all the entries and not only the ones you recently used. In your "Options" tab in the "Customize" menu under "Tools", you have two options for the menus: a) "Always show full menus" b) "Show full menus after a short delay" You can choose only one of the two options. Some other important options which can make your life (PowerPoint-wise!) easier are: 1) "Large icons". Put a tick mark in this check box if you have difficulties to see properly at very high resolutions. 2) "List font names in their font". This is a great advantage brought by Office 2000, since it allows you to see exactly how each font will look like, before deciding to apply it. I suggest you to leave this box always checked. 3) "Show ScreenTips on toolbars". The ScreenTips are those small yellow callouts that appear when you rest your mouse on top of any icon and that let you know the name or purpose of that icon. My suggestion is to leave this option on. 4) "Show shortcut keys in ScreenTips". With this additional box selected, the ScreenTip will also tell you the useful keyboard shortcut that you have to use to perform the same action. I like this and I think that keyboard shortcuts are a great help when working with any computer. 5) "Menu animations". Do not waste your time in this option, it is completely useless. "TOOLS >> OPTIONS" MENU This option has many different sub-entries, but I will focus only on some of them, the ones that I believe are more important. Starting from the "General" tab, the only good option you have is: "Recently used file lists: 4 entries". You can increase this setting if you find useful the list of the recently used files you find under "File" any time you work with PowerPoint (you have the same option in all the other Office applications). In the "View" tab, besides some specific entries for the XP version (like the possibility to show or not the startup task pane), you find 3 options under SlideShow. We have discussed them in an old article (MasterView Issue #4, art. 2). 1) I can remind you here that, by unchecking the option "Popup menu on right mouse click" you will be able to use the right- click of the mouse to move back to the previous slide instead of getting a popup navigation menu. 2) The "Show popup menu button" will hide, if selected, the annoying and ugly icon you have at the left bottom corner of each slide (its purpose should be to help you run the show and navigate the presentation, but I personally don't like it). So, untick it if you like a clean and tidy presentation. 3) The black slide trick should always be part of your presentation, inserted at the beginning and at the end. Here PowerPoint tries to help you creating an automatic black slide for you. My suggestion is to forget this option and always use your personal black slides instead. Just remember that, to create a black slide, you can always click on "New slide", and then draw a rectangle that is as big as the whole slide and make its fill black. Easy enough, isn't it? Under the "Edit" tab you can: a) choose whether, "When selecting, automatically select entire word" b) decide the maximum number of undos (the default option is 20) c) Disable new features (only if you have PowerPoint XP version). See previous issue at MasterView Issue #12, art. 1 In the "Print" tab, remember to tick the voice: "Print inserted objects at printer resolution", so that your printouts (especially charts and graphs) will have a better quality. In the "Save" tab, you can remove the "Allow fast saves" tickmark (you will reduce the file size: see also the previous article at MasterView Issue #2, art. 4) and change the default file location, that is usually C:\my documents. You can also decide, for the current document only, to embed all the True Type Fonts so to: a) "embed characters in use only" (better solution for reducing file size) b) "embed all characters" (better solution for letting others edit your file) The "Security" tab lets you do what you could not do in previous versions of PowerPoint: assign a password to open the presentation file (like you do in Word). Besides, you can put a check mark in the box which says: "Remove personal information from this file on save", so that the properties of the file will not show anymore your personal information. In the last tab we examine, the "Spelling" tab, you can set some rules about the way PowerPoint checks for spelling or grammar mistakes and can suggest corrections. You can also define some specific rules (like the default font case for titles or bullets) from the "Style Options..." button in the "Spelling" tab. Remember that most of these options which are set from this menu ("Tools" >> "Options") are relative to the computer, not to the file. For instance, if you decide to remove the "popup menu button" from the right mouse click, this change will reflect on all the future presentation files run on this specific machine. But I am sure that, after customizing the look and functions of any program you use, you save time and stress for yourself. ============================================================= B) *AutoCorrect* ============================================================= The AutoCorrect feature works almost like it does in MS Word. It is a useful option that can automatically replace for you the text as you type. For example, it can modify some common mistakes you may type: if you type "thsi" you can have PowerPoint replacing this text with "this". Or if you type "fIRST", you can set the AutoCorrect feature to change the capitalization of the letter automatically to "First". The AutoCorrect tool can be easily customized and it replaces, by default, most of the common typographical symbols like smart quotes, fractions, superscripts, arrows and special symbols. Let's see in detail what you can do by knowing how to customize the AutoCorrect feature. In PowerPoint (I am referring in this article to version 2002- XP), click on "Tools" >> "AutoCorrect Options..." "AUTOCORRECT" In the first tab, "AutoCorrect", you can tick or untick different useful options which will correct for you all the wrong words you may type. For instance, it capitalizes the first letter of sentences and the names of the days, it corrects the "TWo INitial CApitals" and the accidental use of "cAPS LOCK key". What you can add here is a list of words which you would like to see replaced when you type. In Word you already have a standard dictionary of all the most common typing mistakes. Here you can add it according to your language or to the words you use the most. Imagine you want to use acronyms which always require dots between the letters: if you like, you can set PowerPoint so that you type FAO and it will display F.A.O., or you type Sim and it will display Simone. This is a useful option for the ones concerned about time saving. To use this option, just put a check mark where it says: "Replace text as you type". Then, in the boxes below, type the word you want to replace (put it under "Replace") with the new word you want to see in PowerPoint (type it under "With"). If for some reasons you have the need of not having replaced some words (especially for what it concerns capitalization), you can click in the "Exceptions" button and set PowerPoint not to correct or replace the words in those cases. When you are finished, click "OK" and it is done. "AUTOFORMAT AS YOU TYPE" If you move to the second tab, "AutoFormat As You Type", you can set PowerPoint to replace for you some common symbols which are not in the keyboard. For example, PowerPoint can replace, as you type, the common "straight quotes" with "smart quotes", which are nicer to see. Or it can replace a normal fraction with the fraction character, which looks more professional. It can also replace smile symbols like this ":-)" or arrows "==>" with the appropriate symbols, without having you the need of using the "Insert" >> "Symbol" menu. In the second part of this tab there are some options that I would like to discuss in detail, since I have noticed that most of the times people don't like them even though, by default, they are always on. I am referring to the "Apply as you type" section. Here you have three options: 1) "Automatic bulleted and numbered lists" (remember that in PowerPoint 97 you had no numbered list option) 2) "AutoFit title text to placeholder" 3) "AutoFit body text to placeholder" If the first feature can be of great help since it is going to apply an automatic bulleted or numbered list as soon as you type items of a list, the other two options will often cause you some layout troubles. Let me explain: if you have the second and the third option checked, PowerPoint will adapt the size of the text (for titles and body) to the size of the placeholder (the text box) which contains it. Imagine you have a bulleted list with three items in the list. Imagine also that the font size is set to 24 points. What do you think is going to happen if you remove the last item in the list so that you end up having only two items? Well, PowerPoint will move the remaining two items of the list to center them into the new space and will also increase their size of some points so that the new amount of lines will adapt to the placeholder (the text box). Therefore this option can be annoying since you will always have the text size changing according to the dimensions of the text box. My suggestion is to leave these two options unticked. ============================================================= C) *Black And White Preview: what is it for?* ============================================================== Most of you may have noticed an icon with some colors. It is placed at the top right side of the Standard toolbar, in all the versions of PowerPoint. In the newer XP version, its shape is a bit different, but it can be easily located on the right side of the zoom drop down list. The icon is called "Color/Grayscale" or "Grayscale Preview". What is it for? How can you use it? My first suggestion is to use it as a "Print preview" before printing, so you will not waste too much paper. If you click on the icon you will not see any color, but your slides will appear in black and white. Once your slides are black and white (in the XP version you can choose among Color, Grayscale or Pure Black and White), you can right-click on any slide and decide different settings all related to the black and white. For instance, by right-clicking on a slide which has been previously set as black and white, you have the following options: 1) Automatic 2) Grayscale 3) Light Grayscale 4) Inverse Grayscale 5) Gray with White fill 6) Black with Grayscale fill 7) Black with White fill 8) Black 9) White All these different black and white options can be used when printing, so that you will be able to obtain the best quality from your printer. Another nice trick I have discovered during my training experience is this: when using text boxes on top of a colored background, most of the times you cannot read the text you have typed in your text box. This is due to the black strip of the selection which covers the text behind. This is very annoying because if you want to see what you have typed, you need to click outside to deselect the text box and then click back again in the text box to keep editing it. The trick you can use is this: when facing this situation (the selection black strip is covering the text and you cannot read it), just click on the "Black and White" or "Grayscale" icon and you will resolve your problems. This is valid also when you are typing using white text, because sometimes the text selection strip appears white and not black. ============================================================== D) *Handout Master, Notes Pages and Handout...* ============================================================== You may have noticed the presence, under the "View" >> "Master" menu, also of Handout Master and Notes Master. What are they for? What is the difference between them and the Slide Master? Handout Master: by choosing this option, you will be able to edit or slightly modify the appearance of all the printouts you will get when printing choosing the option "handouts". Once you have displayed the Handout Master ("View" >> "Master" >> "Handout") you have four text boxes, in the four corners, where you can type any additional information you would like to appear ONLY in the handout but not in the slides or in your presentation. You can add any text info by clicking on any of the four text boxes (the header and the footer) and type your text, which will be displayed in your printouts. Check also the following article about "Header and Footer" because it is strictly connected to this. Notes Master: what you can do when you select the "Notes Master" is more or less the same as the Handout Master. In this view, you can add your specific headers and footers by using the same method shown above, and you can also modify the style of the text that will appear in the printouts of your notes. When you choose to show the notes in the Notes Page view mode, you have the preview of each slide and some room below for writing speakers' notes which you can print to help you remember what you have to say during your presentation. Therefore the Notes Master can be used to apply headers and footers and also to format, as you would like, the text which will be printed below the slide preview when printing the Notes Pages. You also have another Master, the Title Master (not in PowerPoint XP). Sometimes the Title Master option is there but it is grayed out. That means that you need to create a Title Master since it is not present yet. In order to create a new Title Master, you can do the following: a) Click on "View" >> "Master" >> "Slide Master" b) Click on "Insert" >> "New Title Master" or alternatively, only if you have PowerPoint 97 or 2000: a) Hold down the [Shift] key b) Press the "New Slide" icon The Title Master works as a normal Slide Master. The only difference is that it applies ONLY to those slides which have a Title layout. Then you can easily use it as a second Slide Master: any time that you want your slides to be formatted as the Title Master, apply to them the Title layout and they will change according to the Title Master . =============================================================== E) *Header and Footer* =============================================================== The header and footer command lets you customize your slides adding a header, a footer, the slide number and the date (which can be updated automatically). You access this option by clicking on "View" >> "Header and footer" as you do in Microsoft Word. In the latest version of PowerPoint (XP) you have two tabs ("Slide" and "Notes and handouts"), the same you can find in the previous versions (97 and 2000). The only difference is that in the XP version of this box you have the possibility to choose a different "Calendar type" for the date. The date can be fixed (you will type it) or can be updated automatically. In this case you can also set the language you want to use to display the format of the date. You can also decide not to show all the info from the header and footer on the title slide (like in Word you can choose not to show the page number in the first page of the document). For what it concerns the "Slide" tab, you can decide whether you want to apply the header and footer only to the current slide or to all the slides. So far, you know how to display the header and the footer on your presentation. What many people don't know is that you don't have to accept the default Arial 14 or 18 points, but you can customize and format the headers and footers as you wish. Once you have inserted the text by using the "View" >> "Header and footer", you should move into the Slide Master ("View" >> "Master" >> "Slide Master"). From the Slide Master, just click on the text boxes which contain the header and footer you want to modify (you have a placeholder for the date, one for the slide numbers and others for the text you have inserted) and just format them as you would do with a normal text box. Remember not to type anything on the Slide Master, just format the text boxes as you wish. =============================================================== F) *What is saved in a template?* =============================================================== When you apply one of The Microsoft ready made templates ("Format" >> "Slide Design..." in PowerPoint XP, "Format" >> "Apply Design" in the previous versions), what are you actually applying to your presentation? Or when you decide to save a presentation as a template, what kind of information are you actually saving inside that file? In a few words, what type of information, settings and format are stored and saved in a PowerPoint template file? Well, a template contains the following info: a) Slide size and orientation (which you can change from "File" >> "Page layout") b) Color Scheme: (including colors for default fill, line, shadow, text etc.) - which you could modify (in PPT 97 and 200) from "Format" >> "Slide Color Scheme" c) Text Styles: (e.g. Title and Body Text placeholder formatting) - which you can then modify from the Slide Master d) Defaults for text and AutoShapes objects: Fill and Line color and styles, shadowed, etc. - these options can then be modified by right-clicking on any AutoShape object and choosing "Set AutoShape Defaults". e) Printer settings for slides, notes and handouts: Which can be modified from "File" >> "Print..." f) Initial view: Slides, Notes Page, Slide Sorter, etc. Now you know what type of settings you are saving every time you save a presentation as a template or you use any ready-made templates saved as *.pot files. ============================================================== G) *Talk live and deliver online presentations on the Web* ============================================================== New online technology allows Presenters and Trainers to deliver live presentations online with crystal clear audio sessions by Luigi Canali De Rossi Do you want to Train and Present online live? Are you looking for an alternative to the high cost of WebEx, Placeware and other conferencing systems? If you are a Trainer, Professor or Expert and need to present your know-how to groups of people online, there is a new interesting technology that I have recently discovered, and that allows you to do following: 1) Talk online with up to 25 people with high quality audio 2) Show your PowerPoint presentation live to all participants 3) Sync surf to different web sites with all of your participants 4) Text chat 5) Send files directly to participants during the presentation 6) Listen to participants audio feedback Further you can moderate your group and talk or send specific messages to individual participants. The great advantage of this tool over similar technologies is that it offers unparalleled audio quality, real-time exchange with no or little delay, a stable ad-free private environment to work in, no software to install, registration or other frustrating task for whoever you invite into the room. First time you access it a short automatic download installs all you need in less than a minute. There are a lot more applications to this technology that I can possibly list here, but let me list some of the most appropriate for the ones of you who teach, train and support students and trainees of all kinds: a) Virtual Office for professors to give students support - Don't need to be on campus anymore. b) Mentoring tool for online educators who need to show materials, presentations or web pages to their remote students. c) Customer service or support area for an academic or university web site. When people have a problem can access this room and can receive immediate help by a live person via text, voice and can be even guided to appropriate pages and links. d) Hold live group discussions with your class by playing the moderator and providing means for students to support their arguments by showing a web site or a presentation they have posted online. e) Have remote peer learning groups show their presentations and present them live to other participants at remote locations. f) Meeting room for students to discuss and analyze issues, projects and assignments. To provide opportunities and technology-based facilities for students to meet and interact, a private virtual room in which they can freely talk, text chat, exchange files and show each other web pages or presentations. g) Expert Presentation Room. You may have an expert lecturer, or a guest speaker around for a day only or for just a few hours. Through the Virtual Room you can make your guest accessible by all class participants and people can pose direct questions to him/her via voice or via text chat.

The page I refer to (http://www.presentingsolutions.com/portablereport/summer2002.a sp) is called "Portable Projector Report" and it deals with the main issues to face when one is about to buy a portable projector. You will find notes on "Projectors as Commodities", "Price Erosion", "Video Performance and Home Theatre", "Usable Warranties" and other useful info. The Home page of this Web site (http://www.presentingsolutions.com) will provide you with support, info, and online purchase of projectors, home theatre, plasma displays and so on. =============================================================== I) *Questions and Answers from the readers* =============================================================== One of our readers, Budikawi, wanted to know "How to make multiple (repeated) connector without going to AutoShapes menu again and again?" This was my answer about the problem: "Hi Budikavi, Thanks for posting a question to Ask MasterView. I found some solutions for you. There are a few things you can do to create connectors and do it in a faster way: 1) When you click on "Autoshapes", and then "Connectors", you see an additional small menu opening, and it contains all the different types of connectors. Well, if you move your mouse on top of the gray bar at the top side of this small menu, you see that it says: "Drag to make this menu float". You can click on the gray bar, which will become now blue, and drag it anywhere you like on the PowerPoint interface. Doing so, you will have your connectors more handy. 2) You can customize the Drawing toolbar by right-clicking on it, and choosing "Customize". Then in the "Command" tab you will find the "AutoShape" icon and then the "Connectors" icon. Drag this one from here to the Drawing toolbar, so you will be able to display it directly there. 3) With icons like Rectangle, Line or Oval, what you can do to have multiple connectors is just double-click on the icon. Doing this will let you draw several objects without having the need of clicking again on the icon. If you want to use this system also with icons which are not on the drawing toolbar, use method 2) to customize the toolbar. When you are about to customize the toolbar, you will be able to find exactly all the connectors you need, just by scrolling down the list under "AutoShapes". Once your needed connector has been placed on the Drawing toolbar, you can just double-click on it and you will be able to draw as many connectors as you like without clicking the icon again. 4) You can create one connector, select it and then press [Ctrl]+D to make duplicates of it, as many as you need. Then you will resize the ones which need to be modified.
