Thanks Glen. This is my situation-- I am taking an
intermediate (Power Point 2002) on line class and this is
a test question which I have no clue as to the correct
answer:
Question: How can Smart Tage help you work with diagram
objects?
Possible answers: (a) you can change an object's colors
with styles (b) If you paste a diagram and don't like the
layout, you can undo it (c) You can change one diagram
object to another (d) You can reverse the diagram elements
with smart tags
My first choice is d but I have no clue to its being the
correct choice.
I hope you can help with this question because I have
about 5 more that I have no clue to. Thanks Jenny

Jenny,
Beats me! My gut feeling is that these are not Smart Tags, as they were
introduced in 2003. I would call these things Smart Paste options. Anyone
else know?

Hi Jenny,
well, normally I do not want to encourage people cheating in courses using
the newsgroup ... ;-))
But anyway - here's my guess:
I'd choose answer b) If you copy and paste a diagram from one presentation
into another, which uses different master and color scheme, the colors of
your diagram are changed to match the new color scheme and you get a
SmartTag to undo that. Try it yourself!
And please post back, which answer the authors of the online class defined
as the right one.
Kind regards,
Ute

Michael,
I don't have 2002 anymore.
In 2003 it says Smart tags have wavy underlines, while Paste Option buttons
have a drop down menu. I'm with Ute and reckon it is a paste button...

Here is an extract from the help file. I'm still running win98SE and Office XP
on my desktop. BTW, i get the same help file in 2003
----------------<snip>----------------
About smart tags
A "smart tag" is a type of button in Microsoft PowerPoint 2002 that appears
after certain actions, such as an automatic text correction or a copy-and-paste,
have taken place. The button has a menu of options that help you control the
result of the action. For instance, if PowerPoint automatically capitalizes the
first letter of a word, but you want the word lowercased in this instance, you
can click the "undo capitalization" option on the button menu to reverse the
action.
PowerPoint includes several of these smart tag buttons. They function similarly
but their look can vary and each has a specific purpose.
AutoCorrect Options button
The AutoCorrect Options button appears after an automatic correction or
change, such as a lowercased letter that's changed to a capital or a network
path that's converted to a hyperlink. The button shows as a small, blue box when
you rest the mouse pointer near text that was changed; it then becomes a button
icon which, when you point to it and click it, displays a menu. If you don't
want the correction, use the options on the menu to undo it; turn off this type
of correction completely; or connect to the AutoCorrect dialog box to adjust
settings.
Paste Options button
The Paste Options button gives you greater control and flexibility in choosing
the format for a pasted item. The button appears just below a pasted item, such
as text, a table, or a slide, with options for formatting. For example, if you
copy and paste a slide and insert it after a slide that uses a different design
template, you can choose to retain the original design for the slide or let the
pasted slide assume the design of the slide it now follows.
AutoFit Options button
The AutoFit Options button appears when PowerPoint resizes text you're typing
to make it fit the current placeholder. If you don't want the text to be
resized, you can select options on the button menu to undo the resizing or to
connect to the AutoCorrect dialog box to turn AutoFit settings off. Also, for
single-column layouts, you can change to a two-column layout, start a new slide
to accommodate the text, or split the text between two slides.
Automatic Layout Options button
The Automatic Layout Options button appears after you insert an item, such as a
picture, diagram, chart, or table, that changes the initial layout of the slide.
To accommodate the added item, PowerPoint will automatically adjust the slide
layout. If you want, use the button options to undo the automatic layout or turn
it off completely.
