Term explanation
Master View in PowerPoint allows presenters to edit the Slide Master — a top-level template that controls the default fonts, colors, backgrounds, and layouts applied across all slides in a presentation. Changes made in Master View propagate automatically to every slide that uses that layout, making it the most efficient way to apply brand guidelines and maintain visual consistency across large presentations. Master View is essential for template creation and company-wide design standardization.
SlideLizard CREATOR takes Slide Master management to the enterprise level: centrally control your master templates across the organization so every team always works from the latest, brand-approved slide master.

Each participant uses a handheld device or smartphone to submit their answer, and results are aggregated and displayed instantly. PRS technology is used in lectures, corporate training, and conferences to increase participation, gauge understanding, and make sessions more interactive.
Learn moreInformal communication is spontaneous, unstructured interaction between people that falls outside official organizational channels. It includes hallway conversations, team chat messages, lunch discussions, and impromptu calls. While informal communication is not planned or documented, it plays a vital role in organizational culture — building relationships, sharing tacit knowledge, and enabling faster problem-solving. In remote and hybrid workplaces, replicating the natural flow of informal communication has become an important design challenge.
Learn moreA .pptm file is a macro-enabled PowerPoint presentation that contains one or more embedded VBA macros in addition to slides with text, images, and formatting. Macros allow presenters to automate repetitive tasks — such as updating data fields or triggering animations — directly within the file. Because .pptm files can run executable code, they are treated with caution by security tools and should only be opened from trusted sources.
