The following article will introduce you to the 18 most effective keyboard shortcuts for you to save a lot of time when doing exercises on Powerpoint. But if you do a little touch the mouse will be slower progress sir!

Create new slides in a flash

Before I knew the tip below, to create a new slide, I often right-click and select 'New Slide', which is very laborious. Since I know this secret, I never touched the mouse when doing this operation again.

Ctrl + M: Create a new slide

Ctrl + D: Copy existing slides (duplicate) into new slides

Avoid distractions when giving presentations

When presenting, sometimes you want the listener to pay attention to yourself, instead of looking at a slide on a powerpoint. To avoid distracting the listener in this situation, use the following keyboard shortcuts during a slideshow:

B key: Switch the presentation screen to black

W key: Switch the presentation screen to white

Write drawing on the projection screen

Many times you want to interact directly on your presentation slides by circling important numbers, for example, you often right-click on the screen and select 'Pointer Option' and then select 'Pen'. It's been a long time, trying these shortcuts:

Ctrl + P: Turn cursor into writing to draw on projection screen

Ctrl + E: Turn the cursor into an eraser to remove the drawn lines

Turn on the slideshow screen

Above are the shortcut keys when you have turned on the projection screen, but do not know if you already know how to use the shortcut for this or not. The slideshow button is already available on the screen, but at the right, tiny angle, you have to take the effort to find it and click on the correct place to go. Try the following keys:

F5: Start the slideshow screen from the beginning

Shift F5: Start the slide show screen right now the currently opened slide

Move slides quickly

After the presentation, it's time for the Q&A session, when someone asks on any slide. So you have to exit the slide show screen, then drag the mouse to the slide, and open it again. You try to do the following more professional way to try it out:

1 + Enter: Return to the opening slide

Slide number + Enter: Return to the slide with the corresponding order number (provided you have to remember the slide number is the number)

Align the characters faster

Many times you have chosen the font size (font size), then type it out, then see how small / big. So you have to remove the keyboard, grab the mouse to adjust the size of the text on the toolbar.

Or sometimes you choose type type lowercase letters, finished writing and then see all capital letters are more beautiful. So you have to delete all, then press the Caps Lock key and rewrite from the beginning.

Don't waste your time like that. Please do the following:

Ctrl + Shift +>: Increase text size

Ctrl + Shift +

Shift + F3: Convert lowercase letters to uppercase

Align left and right in a note

Now you do not need to hover on the toolbar and choose the appropriate alignment. Try these keystrokes to save time:

Ctrl + E: Center align

Ctrl + L: Left align

Ctrl + R: Right align

Ctrl + J: Justify Align

Legendary redo key

Now I only know the Ctrl + Z key (undo) to undo the previous action. Done many undo then know that the new is better than the old one. So I have to drag the mouse to the toolbar and find the redo key. You will no longer need to do so with the following shortcut:

Ctrl + Z: Undo

Ctrl + Y: Redo
