Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 - Preview a Slide and Make Edits at Same Time

Did you know you can preview your slide slow and make edits at the same time? Yes, you can. Hold down the Control Key and Click on the Show Slide (Screen) button and PowerPoint will open a small window that will display the slide as it will look in presentation mode. You close the preview window by clicking the Esc key.

When you see something you need to edit, just click on the edit slide and make your edits. A small box will appear that says “Resume Slide Show”; click on that to continue previewing your presentation. This is much easier than running the show and going back to the edit mode.

What a great time saving tool.
