Show the filename in Presenter View
Show the filename in Presenter View. Helpful in live corporate meetings when versions are constantly updated. It'd be nice to see the filename somewhere in the presenter view so you know you're in the correct deck without having to escape out of show mode. Thanks!

It would be very useful to be able to customise the text highlight colours when creating a template file for a more cohesive 'on-brand' feel.

Support ligatures in PowerPoint for macOS
Just like Keynote or Word does it, ligatures such as "Fi" of "Ff" should be automatically formatted by PowerPoint on the Mac. Pretty much every font supports them. This being 21st century, text—especially in headings—looks unprofessional without ligatures.

Restore Right Scroll Bar and arrows
I am distraught that PowerPoint 2019 for Mac, which I just installed on a new Mac, does not have the right side scroll bar and slide advance errors when editing slides.
I have used PPT for more than 30 years. Why does it make sense to take away part of the core navigation? I don't want to use thumbnails at left all the time.

Allow setting of default file extension for "Save as Picture" or at least remember the last format choice.
The ability to save images and shapes as pictures in PDF is a great feature of PowerPoint on Mac. Please enable users to set the default file extension for "Save as Picture", for example, as PDF. Currently, PowerPoint always defaults saving to .PNG file.
At the very least, PowerPoint should remember the user's last format choice and default to that.

macOS only fonts support in Slide Master
Currently we can't set macOS only fonts (ex.Hiragino Gothic) in Slide Master's default one. We need to set fonts manually to all slide master objects.

Full customizable keyboard shortcuts
Please allow us to customize keyboard shortcut or at a minimum set keyboard shortcuts for the quick access toolbar similar to the Windows version of powerpoint. Alt-1 etc. is very powerful once customized.

Enable offline ability to browse version history
I was shocked to see that I can no longer use PowerPoint or Word with offline access to previous versions. Browsing version history only works if you're using OneDrive. First, I frequently work in places without internet access, and second, I hate OneDrive, and third, it feels like manipulation to get me to use OneDrive against my will, and fourth, it is a downgrade from my previous Office software. When I mis-save a version or don't save one by mistake, I expect the previous version to be available to me as has been the case on earlier Office products. I…

Ability to disable the slideshow strip of slides across the bottom of the presenter view.
Let us remove the space-wasting strip of slides across the bottom of the presenter view. Or at least return to allowing us to reduce their size. When you upgrade don't remove features.

Syncing PPT with video to OneDrive shouldn't re-link to local files
Links to video files in the same folder as the presentation should not store the full path as the presentation cannot be moved.
I often edit on PC, sync presentation via onedrive to mac but then find I have to re-link the videos because the path cannot be found even though the videos are in the same folder as the presentation.
