PowerPoint offers keys and clicks that you can use to make your PowerPoint presentation run smoothly. If the cursor is hidden, summon it by jiggling the mouse. Then, when the cursor is visible, a faint menu appears in the lower-left corner of the slide. You can use this menu to activate various slide show features.
