Doesn't seem to work - I want to use or insert multiple shapes w/ same tool
and don't want to go back up to menu bar and select the tool every time.
Thought Lock drawing mode would do this but I don't seem to be able to lock
when using the polygon tool
 
Updating the previous post - It is the 'Freeform' tool I am trying to lock to
use over. Was able to do this in previous versions of ppt.
 
You're using 2007, I take it?

Right-click and choose "lock drawing mode."

Ahhh, but now I see you're absolutely correct -- it doesn't work on the
freeform tool. Nuts.

I'll report this as a bug. I can't think of a viable workround, sorry.

Click to expand...

Or several others, I noticed. I suspect that any tool that forces you to
doubleclick/press ESC to tell it "I'm done now" is broken.
