12. SmartArt
The SmartArt Tool allows for a graphical presentation of thoughts and ideas (in contrast to a CHART that displays numerical data).
You could use the SHAPES Drawing Tools, but SmartArt allows for rapid design (STYLE) changes and easier editing of Text with Dialog Panes.
You can: add, delete, and modify parts of an existing shape (Ie: a pyramid with 3 levels and be increased or decreased. Borders, Fill Color, Outlines, Text etc.)
I have not found an easy way to Save custom SmartArt to a Library!
The [SmartArt Tools] Tab becomes active when you select an Object, and then you have two added Tabs: DESIGN and FORMAT to change individual components of the object.
PowerPoint allows you to Convert Text to SmartArt, (but WORD does not!)
Other Formatting Tools used in WordArt and Pictures such as 3D, Shadow, etc. can be seen in the Live Preview Mode.

Picture Formatting

18. Picture Formatting
PowerPoint 2010 has added some enhanced Photo Editing options for
immediate picture transformations.
While there are times you still might want to edit a picture using PAINT, or other graphic manipulation software, the new tools will allow for some quick enhancements to images used in your Presentation.
Microsoft has attempted to standardize options and interfaces across the Office Suite platform and the Ribbon toolbars.
While the commonality of the features are not 100%, if you learn the interface in one MS Office tool, you will find the similar functionality in the other tools..
The [Picture Formatting Tools] Tab becomes active when you select a Picture Object.
You may activate the options by clicking on the [TAB] or using a <Double Left Click> on the object.
A <Right Click> on an object will also bring up a Dialog selection box.

19. Pictures
Selecting a “Picture” with a <Double Left Click> automatically activates the
[Picture Tools] {Format Tab}
Otherwise, you must press the {Format} tab to revel the functions

Corrections, Color, and Background
You may only set ONE color in a picture to be “Transparent”.
So, this does not work with pictures that have gradient or multiple background colors.

26. Special Symbols and Characters
Since the SYMBOL option is really a Character, you need to be in (or create) a TEXT BOX.
With the Cursor in the Text Box, select [INSERT] Ω Symbol.
Depending on the FONT and the special <subset> of characters selected, a list of characters is displayed.
At the bottom of the screen is a row of the last currently used symbols
The ALT+#### and #### <Alt>+X feature used in WORD does not work in PowerPoint
9/19/2018

27. Special Symbols and Characters
There are Characters for each Font and some fonts have multiple <SUBSETS>
. (One place for the “¢” is in ARIAL under the <Latin-1 Supplement>
(1) Click on the Symbol you want
(2) Last Used
Symbols
(3) Assign an AutoCorrect sequence to characters you often use or want to replace.

28. Assign an AutoCorrect Typing Sequence
PowerPoint also has the ability to “Auto-Correct” as you type. It is under the:
[FILE] {Options } Proofing.
For example:
The colon: and a ) becomes the: 
Copy/Paste the character(s) you want into the WITH field.
Enter the character sequence you want to use for the Auto Correct.
In this example the sequence is C/..will be replaced by a: ¢

29. ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Using FONTS
One of the earliest options is to use of Special Character FONTS such as Wingdings and Webdings where letters and numbers are converted into ‘graphic’ symbols: A-Z, a-z,
