Can you copy a Zoom Region?

Rats!  I have already built the all of the slides.  Thanks anyway.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for sharing that idea here, and I'm glad you figured out something that would work for you, although I'm sorry it took a week! In regards to your initial thoughts on copying a zoom region or specifying the size, I'd encourage you to submit those as feature requests. 

I was in Chris' situation, however I had to duplicate "zoom regions" on a software simulation screen capture in "try mode". What I tried to do first, was to (1) duplicate a slide with a zoomed region, and (2) copy the content from another slide to the duplicate. However this did not work, as it seems that one cannot copy screen captured content from slide to slide!!

My solution was to focus/zoom into one corner of my work area, and click back and forth between the slide that contained the correct zoom region, and the next slide where I wanted to match the zoom region. I started in the top left corner to align the original zoom region with the zoom region on the next slide, then moved to the bottom right corner of each to finish. Throughout this process, I continued to click back and forth between slides to "eyeball" the dashed lines.

Although I was manually matching the zoom regions, zooming in on my work space proved to save time, as it enabled me to accurately align the zoom regions between slides. 

Hi Sean,

Thanks for sharing here - whatever works, right? :-) 

Clever!

Thanks for sharing Jean and Welcome to the community!

Thanks for sharing Bruce!

I know this is from a while ago (I don't believe this is still supported) but good thinking Bruce!  Saved me sometime :)

Cool! So glad you found this thread! That's precisely the reason why we don't archive older discussions. :)

Another option that works is to duplicate the entire slide, then put your new content under the saved zoom area.
