I have created a powerpoint presentation, which I need to edit while viewing
the presentation. Is there a feature within Powerpoint which allows me to do
so without having to come out of the presentation?

Thanks in advance

Nish

I'm afraid not.

Nish Shah,
If you mean editing on screen, and people seeing you editing, no there is
not.

You can press Alt-tab to switch into normal mode and do the editing, then
switch back to the slide show view to see the changes.
Alternately, you can also try holding down ctrl key and click on the slide
show icon to see a mini slideshow. Then click back on the normal mode to do
the editing.

I have seen people with 2 monitors have the presentation open in normal
mode on one screen and presentation mode on the other and they have
been able to edit the presentation while in presentation mode. I
believe that the changes do happen on the presentation monitor
simultaneously with the edits done on the normal mode monitor.
