Three Tasty PowerPoint Shortcuts
There are three incredibly useful shortcuts that every presenter must know when they stand up to deliver a PowerPoint Presentation. What are they?
• B - Display a black screen, or return to the slide show from a black screen
• W - Display a white screen, or return to the slide show from a white screen
• H - Go to the next hidden slide
If you already know these three presentation shortcuts, good for you. But when I showed these three little “tricks” to a very seasoned presenter recently… he “remembered” that he knew them at one point, but he “forgot” them while he was developing a new PowerPoint presentation!
I can totally empathize with forgetting something basic: sometimes we get into our groove, and we forget how much we actually know! A tiny little thing like a B, W, or H is bound to slip our memories!
What tiny little PowerPoint or presentation tip do you find most useful?
