Crooked lines once published

May 15, 2012

*** I don't know if "crooked" is the right translation - Google translate told me to use it ^^^ ***

This is what i see in Powerpoint :

This is what I see once published :

See the arrows?

Does anybody have something to repair this?

Thanks!

The best way we've found to fix this problem is to rotate the arrow by 0.1 degree on the Z axis:

Right Click -> Format Shape -> 3D Rotation -> Z:

0.1 or -0.1 from the current value.

I hope this helps!

Another note is that sometimes these lines are connectors in Powerpoint, and they are going askew because Powerpoint likes to connect the middle of two objects.

Hi Mario,

I remembered reading about this before in these  forums and searched to find some articles. This one seems to confirm that it's a bug...or an undocumented feature as so many vendors say ).

Lines and arrows in  PowerPoint 2010 may appear slightly rotated...

Hmmm. Maybe we should all put in a feature request?
