Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Open pps as ppt

Hi :)

I think pps is specifically designed to avoid dropping into edit mode.  People 
wanted to play a professional series of slides without worrying about looking 
dumb at the end of the show in front of an audience.

To edit, just right-click on the pps and rename it so that you can change the 
pps to ppt.  When you are ready to show it to an audience right-click and change 
the ppt to pps again.  It doesn't change the formatting of the slides at all.  
It just means the show doesn't end with an embarrassing view of 
behind-the-scenes.

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Wanna know something weird? I open LibreOffice, I chose 'Open' command, it
opens the file, plays it, and closes! I can't find a way to edit it. I don't
think is desirable to rename it just to edit. And it didn't do so until it
was the stable build. As beta behaved as I need.
