I hate Powerpoint! Hate hate hate!


Thank you for your attention.

The damn thing helpfully changes font sizes when printing the slides with notes, so the outcome looks horrible. Also, why the fonts can't be changed in notes? They thought that people wouldn't use copy-paste and thus wouldn't need to change the fonts to same size in the whole text?

I haven’t noticed any font size changes you describe. And yes, you can change the fonts in notes (with the notes view), and use the same fonts, bullets, etc. in notes by changing the notes master page. (Only affects new pages, though, I think.)

I think Power Point is one of the more working tools from MS, actually – at least as long as it is used as intended. :)

Powerpoint is like Exel - everyone knows how to use them, until they have to use them.

Excel (and almost everything else) is a piece of cake compared to Powerpoint. IMO.

Powerpoint made me crazy and complitely frustrated for so many times when I used it during my years at Wihuri. It has a logic of a I-don't-know-what. Or no logic at all.
I still feel like shouting argggh while thinking about Pp, even though it has been well over a year since I had to do anything with it.
My sympathies are with you, Emmuzka!
And I don't agree with Teroyks at all. Sorry. : )

My sympathies are also with Emmuzka. Is there something better that you can use with a mac?

(My DH would say "RTFM" = Read The Fucking Manual)

Define “better”. As in, what would you like to do?

"Better" = A thing that doesn't make Emmuzka angry.

No, that is the desired effect, not an answer to my question, ”what would you like to do”. Maybe I should have said, “better in what” for you nitpicking, Office-using types. :)

Oh, you take delight in vexing me! You have no compassion for my poor nerves! ;-)
