PPT97: Screen Flashes when Adding Object to Slide Show Via Macro
This article was previously published under Q176786
During a slide show, if you run a macro that adds an object, such as a
drawing object or shape, the screen flashes as the object appears.
When you add an object during a slide show, PowerPoint redraws the new
image on the slide. To redraw the image, PowerPoint refreshes the entire
screen. This causes the screen to flash.
There is no workaround currently available.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the products listed at the
beginning of this article.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft PowerPoint 97 Standard Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
