Converting a Text-based Slide to a Picture Slide
It is recommended that a vertical, 3D pie or doughnut chart be used.
1
Create a polling slide.
The text in the answer region will be replaced by pictures. Therefore, it is recommended to use descriptive words or
phrases in the answer region because this text will be used for the chart labels, reports, extracted question lists and in
the session editor. Correct answer indicators need to be inserted on the slide before converting it to a picture slide.
Short answer, numericand essay slides do not support the Convert to Picture tool.
2
Use PowerPoint’s Insert > Picture menu to insert one picture for each answer choice, or drag and drop images onto
the slide.
Find more information on inserting pictures at Microsoft's Office Support:

Resize and arrange the pictures so that they are properly displayed on the
slide.

a
Click outside the slide to ensure that no objects on the slide are selected.
b
Click the picture that corresponds to the first answer choice.
c
Hold down the Shift or Command on the keyboard and click the second picture.
Now both the first and second pictures are selected.
d
Repeat step c for each additional picture until all of the pictures have been selected.
NOTE
Pictures may be included on the slide that are not associated with one of the answers (for
decoration or illustration). Do not click these pictures.

Click the Tools icon on the TurningPoint toolbar and select Convert to
Picture.
The pictures are given a label and the text-based answer options are now

The Standards tool allows for the use of downloaded K-12 standards (per state or country, topic, subject, or grade level) or to

meet.
To open the standards window, click Tools on the TurningPoint Cloud toolbar and select Standards.
