PPT97: Format Painter Lost Trying To Apply Text Style to Shape (157786)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q157786 SYMPTOMS
If you select some text, click the Format Painter tool and then click
a drawing object that has no text, your pointer changes to a Move pointer
(four-headed arrow). This behavior is different from PowerPoint for
Windows 95, version 7.0, which displays a paintbrush pointer until you
click an object that contains text or until you click an unoccupied part
of your slide.
CAUSE
This behavior is a design change in the enhanced drawing abilities in
PowerPoint 97.
