Paste Special in PowerPoint

There are essentially two ways in which you can bring content within PowerPoint — either by using options within the Insert tab of the Ribbon or by copying content from other programs and pasting within PowerPoint. In this post, we will explore the latter way, and also look at why you should explore the Paste Special option rather than using the plain vanilla Paste button that slide-creators typically use.

Outsmart Your Brain: How to Master Your Mind When Emotions Take the Wheel

Quotes

Change Your Thoughts: by Dr. Marcia Reynolds

"For years, “Change your thoughts, you change your behavior” was the mantra for life improvement. Through experience and science, we have since learned that affirmations rarely change behavior when emotions have taken the wheel. When your buttons get pushed into anger and your mind floods with fear, telling yourself to be calm or courageous won’t stand up to the voices in your head telling you to defend or shut up."

Disable, Enable, and Set the Default Custom Dictionary in PowerPoint 365 for Windows

Any custom spelling dictionary that you create within PowerPoint or any other Microsoft Office program is used by all the Office applications installed on your computer. Also, any changes made to the list of words within a custom dictionary reflect in proofing tools of all Office applications. Each logged-in user has a default custom dictionary called RoamingCustom.dic, stored in a separate folder for each local user. So, what exactly is a default dictionary?

Learn how to disable, enable, and set the default custom dictionary in PowerPoint 365 for Windows.

Add and Remove Proofing Dictionaries for Foreign Languages in PowerPoint 365 for Windows

PowerPoint includes proofing tools (spelling dictionaries, thesauri, and grammar rules) for more than one language. For example, if you use English as your main language, then Spanish and French dictionaries may already be installed. This enables you to spell-check Spanish and French words. To proof text in a foreign language, you need to install and enable proofing tools for the language you require. When these tools are installed, you can tell PowerPoint if a particular text placeholder or text box needs to be proofed as a foreign language.
