Pictures in Presentations
Is a picture is worth a thousand words? You probably have heard this adage so often that we decided not to repeat this phrase
throughout this book! Now here's some more info: the human brain uses a larger part of its area to store visual information
rather than textual content. And that's possibly because a picture describes so much more than text.

Learn PowerPoint 2019 for Windows
Live Preview
Editing any slide object works the same way, irrespective of whether you are editing a picture, a chart, some SmartArt, or even
text. You select the object you want to edit and change some attributes. You then get to see your changes, and then you either
undo your changes if you are not too happy with them or just accept them. You can then start working with another object! What if
you could see/preview how an actual change will look on the slide object before you decide to accept or decline that change?
PowerPoint 2019's Live Preview allows you to do just that.

Quick Access Toolbar
Soon after power users install a new application, they want to customize their menus and toolbars so that their most often used
commands are accessible with fewer clicks, or even custom keyboard shortcuts. And even if you are not a power user, you should
explore a very useful option that we explain in this tutorial, this will make your tasks easier, and quicker. PowerPoint has no
toolbars other than the Quick Access Toolbar. Almost everyone who uses this toolbar just calls it the QAT, and that's the name we
will use for the rest of this tutorial. The QAT's raison d'être is customization, and accessing all your favorite commands
in one place. It's important to note that the QAT does not add new commands, it just places your favorite commands in one place.
