When handling large presentations (1,000+ slides) one uses the 'slide sort' view a lot. The use of sections adds to the usability. What would further improve handling such a large number of slides is the addition of swimming lanes. Preferably done in both ways:

-1- Vertically: Make use of the sections and then being able to indent particular sections. Thereby keeping good (visual) sight of the structure of the presentation. Each indent should have a (changeable) name. There should be >10 indent levels.

-2- Horizontally: Make use of so called swimming lanes: sections or slides can be dragged into a particular (labeled) swimming lane and thereby gives a nice visual oversight of the presentation structure. All slides are ordered (as thumbnails) from left to right in this view.

Both features would give users better handling tools for presentations with lots of slides. This will reduce the amount of time being spent creating/ refining a slide deck. And that would be great, thanks in advance!

When showing a powerPoint presentation projected or on another monitor using Presenter view on the computer, there is a need to be able to view other docs/apps without stopping the presentation. But Presenter view only operates in full screen mode, leaving no access to other docs/apps/windows. Toggle window doesn't work on a Mac. Either toggle window needs to work, or the Presenter view window needs to be smaller than fullscreen to allow access to other docs/apps/windows. This is especially important for a Zoom session when there is a need to look at other documents while sharing one monitor showing the ppt presentation and having the Presenter view on another monitor.

The annotation functionality during live presentations is rather primitive.

• There is no UNDO button or shortcut,
• there is no shortcut to switch to the eraser,
• the back of the pen is NOT detected as an eraser.

The combination of these three issues makes teaching with a graphic tablet NOT PRACTICAL.

Moreover, add 10 circles on screen where I can choose the theme colours. Now, to change the pen colour I have to click through menus and can choose only 3 bit colours! Are we in the 1970s?

Finally, allow the user to choose a pen size and switch on/off pen pressure sensitivity.

It would be extremely helpful to have a design search box embedded onto the Powerpoint application. For example, I often create themed presentation for business and it would be helpful to have the option to type in the theme/design that I am searching for, right in Powerpoint versus, scrolling through tons of designs that I am not interested in. It would save a lot of time. Since Microsoft does not have this option, I usually google the themes that I am search of. For example, I recently googled camouflage powerpoint presentation, and received a design from a third party source called slidesgo. Being that I purchased Office 365, it would be nice if MS Office can also support this need for it's customers.
