Add a layers window that allows page elements to be turned off/on

[Bob Cozzi]

When creating a complex powerpoint page with animations, it is often very
difficult to select objects that are beneath other objects.

By adding a layers windows that has specific controls that let me:

1) Select any object listed
2) Hide/reveal any object
3) Set properties, such as animation or B/W mode display
4) Don't show during presentation


This would allow me to do more with animation specifically and allow me to
more quickly modify a page with a lot of object on it.

Hi Bob

I take it you don't have PowerPoint 2007 as the new selection and Visibility
pane pretty well does this. You might want to look at the add_in here which
gives a similar feature to 2002/3. Its completely free and comes "as is"
