How to replace a single Landscape slide with a Portrait slide? Solved

Question

Hello everyone  I want to replace one slide in a PowerPoint presentation where all slides are in "landscape" with one in "portrait". This is a question that has been asked of me and I can't solve it. I think only m@rina or Raymond Pentier have the solution. I can't do it despite the tutorial below from m@rina  https://www.faqword.com/index.php/powerpoint/faq-ppt/environnement/713-peut-on-mixer-plusieurs-formats-de-diapositive-dans-une-meme-presentation-portrait-et-paysage  or even with this tutorial found online https://support.microsoft.com/fr-fr/office/puis-je-appliquer-des-orientations-portrait-et-paysage-aux-diapositives-d-une-m%c3%aame-pr%c3%a9sentation-d8c21781-1fb6-4406-bcd6-25cfac37b5d6?ui=fr-fr&rs=fr-fr&ad=fr  Thank you in advance  Have a good end of the afternoon

Hello everyone,  landscape display allows for optimal presentation of a slideshow on our screens, which are generally wider than they are tall. Changing the orientation of even a single slide results in reducing the slide's size to the height of the screen instead of its width. Of course, we can fiddle with it, but the result is questionable; the size of a slide is dependent on several criteria, but the average size is 965 x 725 pixels, which is 25.53 x 19.18 cm.  It’s better to use a central area of the slide that has a height equal to the height of the slide, 19.18, which would be 14.45 x 19.18 cm on a black background, as this would correspond to the same display and be much easier to implement.  -- A+ Mike-31  I am responsible for what I say, not for what you understand...

Hello according to the provided link, the principle is to create two slideshows one in landscape the other in portrait and create a hyperlink to switch from one to the other.

Hello,  I think only m@rina or Raymond Pentier have the solution.  Okay, we'll abstain then :-) eric  -- By continuously trying, we eventually succeed. So the more it fails, the more chances we have that it will work. (the Shadoks) In addition to the thank you (yes, it can be done!!!), remember to mark it as resolved. Thank you.

Hello Erric Don't take offense; I'm not questioning your skills, but I know that m@rina and Raymond Pentier are very competent but also overloaded with requests. However, if you have the solution, I will prostrate myself at your feet.  Hello Yclik  Yes, I had to make two presentations: one in landscape and one in portrait, as well as a hyperlink. The tutorials seem clear, and despite that, I can't get it to work. But since I have limited skills and intelligence, I took the liberty of asking for help from CCM.  Thank you both for responding. Have a great weekend to you and to the whole forum.

Hello Mike_31  What you say is true In PowerPoint, you can change the orientation of the slide from portrait to landscape or vice versa  To do this, go to the "Design" tab, click on "Slide Size" and on the small slider  to the right and choose "Custom Slide Size". In the "Orientation" dialog box, click on "Portrait" or "Landscape" You can also change the frame of the slide, but this choice applies to all  slides in the current slideshow. However, according to the two tutorials, there is a tip to set, for example, a single slide to "Portrait" while keeping the others in "Landscape"  It is recommended to create two slideshows: one in "Landscape" and one in "Portrait" and also a hyperlink But I can't get it to work!  Thank you for responding Have a great weekend

Hello,  I think you understand: it is not possible to have two formats in a single presentation. So, if it is absolutely necessary, there must be two presentations. And to switch from one to the other, this can be done via a hyperlink, or (especially if it's just one slide) by inserting this presentation as an object.  I don't see where the difficulty lies since I explain the procedure in detail.  -- There's no need to ask me your questions in private. I won't respond.

Hello m@rina  I have noticed that two slideshows are required and a hyperlink. Despite a well-detailed tutorial, I must be making a mistake on PPoint 2013.  I will keep trying Thank you for your response. Have a good weekend.
