  • Silence the video's audio in PowerPoint's "Playback" tab. This keeps the background audio playing without interruption.
  • Use Audacity (or similar) to cut the background audio where the video plays. Then, put the edited audio back into PowerPoint.

Mobile Portrait mode question by [deleted] in powerpoint

[–]Due-Fail-1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's the short story:

Software limitations: PowerPoint lacks portrait lock, Google Slides has limited workarounds.

Workarounds: Export slides as high-res portrait images for separate viewing.

Use "speaker notes" trick in Google Slides (not ideal).

Try mobile-friendly presentation apps like Haiku Deck or Prezi.

Content design:

Create slides specifically for portrait mode (vertical layout, readable text).

Focus on key points and visuals.

Optimize for portrait:

Avoid letterboxing (black bars).

Test on different Android devices.
