How can I activate a PowerPoint designer?

Activating PowerPoint Designer is simple and straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  • First, open your PowerPoint program. Make sure you have a valid Office 365 subscription, as the PowerPoint Designer feature is exclusive to this.
  • Go to the ‘File’ menu, select ‘Options’, and then choose ‘General’. Scroll down to the ‘PowerPoint Designer’ section.
  • Check the box that says “Automatically show me design ideas”. This will enable the PowerPoint Designer function.
  • Click ‘OK’ to save the changes. Now, when you start creating a slide and add content to it, you should see the Designer pane on the right, offering you design ideas.

Please note that the PowerPoint Designer feature is only available if you’re using PowerPoint for Windows, PowerPoint for Mac, or PowerPoint for the web, and you’re connected to the internet. Also, this feature is not available in certain regions. If you’re not seeing the design ideas, ensure that your PowerPoint is updated to the latest version.
