Problems when pasting as link in Powerpoint
Hi Everybody,
Stumbled upon a rather curious little thing (bug?) when trying to pase a chart as a link ( so that when the info the chart is based on changes, the chart updates. This does not happen if i pase the chart in as a picture) As can be seen here in the first screenshot, this is the Powerpoint template i would like to paste to: When activating a text box in the Powerpoint presentation and select paste, it fits the chart correctly in the text box- as can be seen below: The error (user or machine ) occurs here, i activate the text box like i do when pasting normally - however this time i choose paste special and "paste link" and as you can see below the chart goes all over the place and does contain itself within the text box. I have tried: different charts, different PC´s - this leads me to believe that this is a general bug/feature in Office. Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. |

Yes, I tried and found the same problem. When you choose "paste special", the chart always appears in the middle of the slide. Just try to move the chart manually, it would be OK

The whole idea is to get it contained in the box as i need several charts pasted on that slide. |
