How can I turn a page in PowerPoint?

To rotate a page (also known as a slide) in PowerPoint, you actually have to rotate each individual object on the slide. There’s no built-in feature to rotate the entire slide, but here are the steps to rotate items:

  1. First, click on the object you want to rotate. This could be a text box, image, shape, or any other item.
  2. When you click on the object, you’ll see a circular arrow at the top. Click on this arrow, hold down the mouse button, and then drag in the direction you want to rotate the object.
  3. Repeat these steps for each object on the slide until you’ve achieved the desired effect.

If you’re looking to create a portrait orientation for your slides, you can do this in the Slide Size settings:

  1. Click on the “Design” tab in the top menu, then click on “Slide Size” on the right side of the ribbon.
  2. Choose “Custom Slide Size” from the dropdown menu.
  3. In the dialog box, you can choose “Portrait” under the “Slides” section.
  4. Click “OK” to apply the changes to your slides.

Remember, changing the slide orientation affects all slides in your presentation. If you only want to change a specific slide, you might consider creating a separate presentation for that slide and then merging the presentations together.
