FAQ
Can I edit an inserted object?
- Select the inserted object on the slide.
- Double-click the object and check whether it opens in the related application or editing state.
- After editing, return to the presentation and confirm that the content has updated.
What is the difference between Create New and Create from File?
- Create New Object is used to create a new blank object directly.
- Create from File is used to insert an existing file into the current slide.
