We explored how you can add 3D objects in PowerPoint using the new 3D feature available to Microsoft Office 365 subscribers. But until now, any movement happened using the Morph transition effect. And herein lay the problem: this seemed like a workaround. And now it seems true that this was indeed a workaround because Microsoft just introduced real 3D animations in PowerPoint. At the time of writing, these animations are only available to Office Insider subscribers of Office 365. Both Office Insider Slow and Office Insider Fast rings have access to these animations.

Sometimes, you want to know whether you are running a 32 or 64-bit version of PowerPoint or Office. Yes, if you are running a 32-bit version of Windows, then there's no ambiguity in the fact that you have to be running a 32-bit version of Office. But if you are running a 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows, you may be running a 32 or a 64-bit version of Office. It is not uncommon for sysadmins and even users to run 32-bit Office within a 64-bit Windows environment. Why? That's because there are add-ins for Office products that may not work in a 64-bit version of Office. Or you may have another reason. Luckily, it's easy to identify 32-bit or 64-bit if you know where to look.
Find out whether your PowerPoint and Office 2013 version is 32 or 64-bit.

Successful leadership is built upon four practices: Establishing a clear vision; sharing that vision with others, in a clear and compelling way; providing others with the resources to realize that vision; and coordinating, the sometimes conflicting, interests of all stakeholders.
But there is a fifth, often overlooked characteristic; the need for leaders to be able to flex their style, dependent on the situation. A business with its back against the wall, requires a different style to one which is enjoying a profitable, steady state.

Your slides remain the same, yet the various views in PowerPoint make exploring those same slides a little different. This approach makes sense because viewing slides in Slide Show view gives an entirely different perspective than editing them in Editing view. Further, it's easier to skim through your slides in Reading view, and then make changes to individual slides in Editing view. All put together, PowerPoint Online provides you with three different views.
