Select the slide then right click on the image and select "Save as Picture" near the bottom of the menu. If you're lucky this will work - I've tried this with 3 different MS Powerpoint files and it worked fine with two of them but didn't even give me the "Save as Picture" option with the other one :-( > Second q is howto use them for my desktop backgrounds in KDE since, > upon rebuild and relaunch, everything is black. the first question > is howto save a separate image? or are there other tools to do this? > [neither xv nor gv work] Right click on a blank piece of the KDE desktop and select "Configure Desktop". This should open with the "Change the background settings" icon highlighted. In the "Background" section click the "Picture" radio button and click the folder icon on the right to browse to your selected image. -- Mike Clarke
