Re: Why is it no longer possible to paste PP shapes as MS Drawing

Thanks Bob... so the only thing I can do is being patient and wait :-( But I
still find something like this incredible!
Cheers

Why does Popowerpont send the shape as "graphic object", and
not "drawing object" in the clipboard???

I don't think it's a matter of what PPt *sends* - Copying/cutting to the
clipboard is an OS function over which the source has no control. It's a
matter of what/how the destination program is able to receive the
clipboard's content when pasting takes place.

As Bob indicated, the new graphics engine isn't as richly implemented in
Word as it is in Excel & PPt - which has historically been the case:-) The
good news (as I understand it) is that the newer engine more readily *can
be* integrated into Word than could the old engine - it just hasn't happened
as yet. I tend to think that Word will "catch up" in a future update or at
least in the next major release.
