In PPT 2010 I could see all of the upcoming bullet points on my slide. This allowed me to have an overall picture of where I was going and made for smooth presentations. Now that PPT only displays the next upcoming bullet point it's stressful and requires more continued thought. It's also handy to see the next couple of slides without having to click on a different view.

It would be helpful to be able to reference the active/selected user comment. For example, when the user deletes a comment, it would be great to be able to store that comment in a variable.

I don't use the shadows, I don't like blue lines. Why does each time I use a line it has to be blue, 2pt wide, and with a shadow? Why do I need to adapt to your software and not your software adapt to me?

I am pulling my hair out.

With the new powerpoint 2016 you can no longer just copy a slide as the chart in the new slide will be linked to the data source of the original slide. it's not visible until you open the chart in the original slide and it changes to match the data you input for the new slide - so you have to slides with hte exact same data.

I simply can't fathom why this is no longer possible to do

The ability to edit a table in powerpoint is RUBBISH. It would be amazing if we could automatically change column / cell widths etc. so that it had the same formatting flexibility as in excel.

When you save a A4 PowerPoint slide as a jpeg and insert that image in a A4 Word doc, the image does not cover the entire page. Dimensions of the image are smaller than A4.

All is wrong with your user interface. The grid size, not being able to lock items, the bug where you can't reload linked pngs, I can write all day. Do you know Inksscape? Learn from those guys and save my hours of hate.

To be able to copy the objects animated on a slide at their final position to use on next slide as their start point

See above.

Please change the background color on the split screen back to the light color......BLACK is terrible, and the white print is very hard to see!!!

In PowerPoint 2016, the File tab is the same color as the Home tab, I keep clicking File instead of Home which overlays the screen with the welcome screen. You should have a different color for File tab which has a different behavior as other tabs in all themes (not only the white one)

Allow copyprotection of templates

Please make it possible to both edit the standard grid and make it visible.

I use PowerPoint for all sorts of works of my own. From making presentations of contests to promotional videos. I think I have the capability to meet the clients need. I like to work with and without templates and insert images and gifs to make it colorful and attractive. I love to insert simple animations to make presentations trendy yet formal and also add the necessary transitions so, the client does not need to click multiple times to change slides and can give confident speech.
I would really look forward for your reply.

I am a teacher and the idea of walking to the laptop every time to change the slide is tiring. The use of a presenter is somewhat limited as I cannot tell what the next slide is. It would be great if we can pair the phone to the system and use the phone to change the slide and view the upcoming slides. This feature was once available and was one of the best features for teachers.
