Converting Smart Art back to bulleted text?

[Bad Bart]

Hi,

After converting bullet points to Smart Art, is there a shortcut or trick
that allows the Smart Art text to be converted back to bulleted text? Just
curious and interested.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Bad Bart,

From the PowerPoint Help button:

If you want both a slide with the text and another slide with the SmartArt
graphic created from that same text, create a copy of the slide before you
convert it to a SmartArt graphic.

If you have not closed and then subsequently reopened your presentation, you
can reverse the conversion to a SmartArt graphic by clicking Undo on the
Quick Access Toolbar.

If you close the presentation, you cannot use Undo, but you can copy and
paste all of the text from the Text pane into a slide. You will lose any
formatting, but you will retain your information.

Seems like there should be an easier way.
