MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / July 2005Any Equivalent to MS Word CTL-RETURN?
This has got to be a pretty easy one, but I have not been able to find the answer ....... Is there a way to insert a "page break" in a bullet list. In effect, whatever follows the "page break" would be on a new page? For example if there are 5 bullets and the "page break" inserted after number 3, bullets 1 through 3 would be on one page and 4 through 5 would be on the next. I have used the "duplicate current slide", however I then have to delete what I do not want on the slides; a bit of a waste of time. Thanks! Don Normally Ctrl+M will bring up a new slide, and you continue your data entry. Just press the tab key to get to the next level of indent as indents normally starts at the first level on a new slide.

Don Michael, Unfortunately, his does not transfer the bullets after the break to the new slide. It simply creates a new slide following the current one. I am referring to the case where in the midst of a slide the user decides it would look better over two slides and wants to split the existing information. Thanks anyway!

If you do this, you can adjust where slides start and stop just as you want. If you put your cursor at the beginning of the line to go on the next slide, you can shift tab to demote the text until it creates a new slide. You will need to add a new title to the slide, but once that is done, you can re-adjust the first line to be indented to where you want.

The ease of editing that you're looking for comes with using the Outline: Shortcut Keys: SHIFT+TAB or ALT+SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW - Promote a paragraph TAB or ALT+SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW - Demote a paragraph ALT+SHIFT+UP ARROW - Move selected paragraphs up ALT+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW - Move selected paragraphs down ALT+SHIFT+1 - Show heading level 1 ALT+SHIFT+PLUS SIGN - Expand text below a heading ALT+SHIFT+MINUS SIGN - Collapse text below a heading ALT+SHIFT+A - Show all text or headings SLASH (/) on the numeric keypad - Turn character formatting on/off CTRL Enter will add a new Slide. Another option is to click on the AutoFit options next to the text placeholder and choose Split Text between 2 slides or one of the other options.
