Is there a way to align the text from right to left (it's Arabic) on all slides in a PowerPoint Presentation with a macro ? (I'm using O365).
In a Microsoft example I found this :
Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes(2) _
.TextFrame.TextRange.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = ppAlignLeft
But i think that this example aligns the paragraphs of form 2 on slide 1 of the active presentation to the left.
So i don't know how to do it with all the shapes/slides types.
The professional coders may improve it, but I think this one should help you. You just have to select all slides before you click it, if you want the entire presentation to be done in one move. I think it is better than any entire-presentation-solution, because it gives you the opportunity to choose.
