Configuring how total number of slides is displayed on slides (ex. 1 of 10)
PowerPoint allows me to insert slide numbers. I'd like to be able to have it worded as "2 (of 12)", "3 (of 12)", etc.
Feature variations:
- #
- # of #
- slide # of #
Ability to not show count on hidden slides.

I'd like the total number of slides to be inserted automatically, like numPages in microsoft Word. Why on earth should we be doing this manually when a machine can do it more accurately?

and it's available in word and excel by inserting a the NumPages field. Why can we not insert document fields in powerpoints? "Hand Counting" the number of slides is so 1990's...

I can only repeat another user: That's a so trivial thing that I'm wondering why it isn't implemented yet.

It would indeed be very interesting. Because when we have noted "by hand" the total number of pages, it often happens then that we add or remove a few slides and the information is incorrect.

MS Word can do this. Why not Power point as well?

And have option to do seperate counts for different sections. So section 2 can start again with slide 1 of 10 (and then 10 being to total of section 2).

This is a great idea. I don't know why this isn't already in effect.

Totally agree this needs to be streamlined to show total slides being presented (and not hidden slides).

It should take into account only the shown slides (i.e not ones hidden) -

I'm gobsmacked this isn't already implemented. I could have sworn I used this in older versions.
