    - Hardware acceleration in 2007 I've had PPT 2007 installed on two very powerful laptops but find that hardware acceleration just doesn't work like it did in 2003. With HA enabled the result is the same on both computers: Problem #1: the object animations do not play out in the slide preview - everything just appears (but play correctly with HA off) Problem #2: when playing the slideshow HA has no affect on the speed whatsoever - and is sometimes even slower. Problem #3: all the object animations are slower with much faster computers in PPT 2007 than they were with slower computers in PPT 2003 It seems that MS has managed to just break the hardware acceleration function between versions. I can't be the only one who has this problem. Config: Dell XPS M1530 Intel Duo Core 2.4 4Gb RAM 256Mb video RAM 200Gb, 7200 RPM HD Vista Ultimate All updates installed for Vista and Office Tag: vids:xvid decompressor Tag: 386442

    - Macro won't run in slideshow view I am in the process of making a game for a meeting resembling Wheel of Fortune. I was planning on creating a macro for each of the letters of the alphabet so that when clicking on the letter it automatically poplulates the letter in the puzzle. The macro will run if i run it from clicking on tools/macro/macro and clicking run, but they won't work when i add them in the action setting for the slide show. I've tried both action buttons and just text and adding the new action setting so that on click it runs the macro, but they won't run. It underlines the text so i know it recognizes that there is an action associated with it, but when i click on it from the slideshow, it won't run. What am i doing wrong!?!?! I've also tried changing my security to low, but that doesn't make it work either. :( Tag: vids:xvid decompressor Tag: 386424

    - Default shadow settings Is there a way to change the default shadow settings when I choose a lower-right drop shadow for example? I would like to have the default be 0% transparency and 10 for distance. It is a pain to have to set it for every object I create. I don't want to use format pickup, because I don't want all the attributes all the time. What about other object settings? I assume if there's a way for one then there's a way for all. Can this be done in the registry? It has to be getting it's defaults from somewhere. It sure would be nice if you could change these defaults through the interface.

    - Power Point Slide show not working correctly I recently sent a copy of a Power Point slide show, that I had received, to both my daughters. Both of them are using Windows XP and Office 2007. On one computer the show runs correctly (as it does on my Windows XP and Office 2003) but on the other it does not show text in a box which "fades in". What could be causing this? I have opened the file and saved it as html in order to see what types of files are within the slide show and there are no swf files which I thought may be causing the problem. The files within are htm, css, jpg, gif, js, wmf, wav and xml. Where to now? Tag: vids:xvid decompressor Tag: 386383

    - embedding .swf files in PowerPoint 2007 I am trying to embed a .swf file into a PowerPoint 2007 presentation so that the .pptx file can be moved and copied and opened anywhere and the animation still work, without having to also move the .swf file. I found a tutorial that seems to be able to do this in Office 2003 (http://www.flashgeek.com/tutorials/02_embed_09.asp), however this does not work for 2007. I know how to get a .swf file into a presentation and linked, but this requires that the .swf file be moved with the .pptx file. I cannot figure out how to get it actually embedded so that only the .pptx file has to be moved. I am also not interested in the "package for CD" option. It seems to me that this is one area where PowerPoint could use significant improvement - I have the same trouble with movie files and sound files. Embedding these things into a presentation file should be easy to do. Tag: vids:xvid decompressor Tag: 386371

    - "X-out" an object after used with hyperlinks Hey everyone, I'm very familiar with hyperlinks and how to create them using Autoshapes. Thing is, I've created a 'game' with a home page that has 20 Rectangle autoshapes, all of which hyperlink to some place new. What I want to do is create the hyperlinks in such a way that when a person clicks on it, and then comes back to this main slide, the autoshape they clicked on is crossed out with X, or made Red, or somethig similar. See, with text, when you click a hyperlink, it changes color. But the autoshapes don't. So can I make an autoshape change in color (or get crossed out) once it's used? Thanks so much!

    - Freeform drawing preview colour in Powerpoint 2007 I use a black background for most of my presentations. In PPT 2003 drawing with the freeform tool would preview in white before the shape was finalised by double clicking. In PPT 2007 the preview is black and hence invisible while drawing the freeform, so I can't see what I am drawing! The results are usually entertaining. I can't find any option to change the contrast colour of the freeform tool (in 2003 it appeared to change automatically so was dark on a light background). Same seems to apply to the scribble and curve tool. I can change the background colour, but this seems unnecessarily clunky. Any suggestions on how to modify this behaviour? Many thanks.

This is basically saying that your computer does not have a 'codec' called
xvids.

It need this to uncompress and display the movie.

Visit
http://www.playsforcertain.com

download the free trial and it should convert your movie to something that
powerpoint will quite happily play.
