Translated Presentation Window Is Slightly Smaller PSS ID Number: Q64974 Article last modified on 10-29-1991 PSS database name: W_PowerPt

WINDOWS

Summary:

When translating presentations from Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows to PowerPoint for the Macintosh, some of the presentations will be generated with a smaller window size. Switch to a different view size, and then back to the translated view size to resolve the problem.

For example, when you translate a Genigraphics Clip Art presentation, it comes out on the Macintosh at 50-percent view with the scroll bars active to scroll by a very small amount, which looks like a small, off-slide border width. The zoom box does not fit the windows to page size properly, but changing view to something other than 50 percent and then back to 50 percent corrects the problem.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PowerPoint for Windows version 2.00. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
