Power Point Options? Reverse & Sound - can't get them to work

**fat boy** · #1 (**permalink**) 02-20-2010, 07:49 PM

I use PP on the TP2 and I have a need sometimes to reverse the slides for review or because a mistake is made and have gone too far forward. Is there are way to make the option of reverse in a power point presentation? Thanks for any help.

In slideshow mode, Right arrow goes forward, Left arrow goes backwards.

Now, does anyone know how to get sound working?

I have a presentation setup that has sound embedded. I copied the presentation and the sound file over to my SD card, but no matter what I try, I can't get the sound going.

Works fine on my desktop, my laptop, and when I email it to others.

The left and right arrows are on your keyboard, bottom right side near the enter key.

Open the keyboard, put the presentation in slideshow mode, then use the right and left arrows to advance/go backwards.

I was so focused looking for the on screen solution that I didn't think to use the Keyboard, thanks. I used to have a back arrow on screen years ago, I wonder what happened to it and why they removed it, it was MUCH easier to use.

There is an onscreen solution

At the bottom left of the screen in presentation mode is the same hotspot you get in the desktop version. This hotspot opens a menu with "Next", "Previous" etc .. and pen colour selection .. and a navigator by slide title list.

No keyboard necessary!

I was looking for a quick click instead of having to fumble around a menu.
