    PowerPoint 2016 pen coordinates zigzag


    In a PowerPoint presentation, if I draw a vertical line, it will suddenly zigzag to the left an inch on the screen. I makes my lines look jagged. I think it must have a coordinate error where the x coordinate of pen location is sometimes mis-read. I normally use a mouse, but have tried with touch pad too. See sample below.

    PowerPoint 2016 high CPU usage after file is saved

    Hi,

    There's a possibility that an add-in that is installed and enabled in PowerPoint is causing the problem. For us to sort this out, we suggest checking the add-ins in PowerPoint and verify if a
    CoPentaBar add-in is enabled. Follow these steps:

    • Start PowerPoint.
    • On the File menu, click Options.
    • Then, click Add-ins.
    • At the bottom of the Add-Ins dialog box, select COM Add-ins and then click
      Go.
    • Click to disable the CoPentaBar add-in.
    • Click OK.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.

    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
    most of the time it works to me. *Smile PowerPoint 2016 pen coordinates zigzag :)
