any chance of getting the measuremet in pixels ?
Not unless you can convince MS that pixels is the standard unit of measure in
your country. ;-)
But seriously, it wouldn't be of much use. If I play your presentation on my
1024x768 system, the measurements in pixels will be different from what you get
on your 1200 x 1024 system.
There's a Units Calculator tool in our free PPTools Starter Set
(
http://starterset.pptools.com). This'll tell you the width and height in
pixels -- at the current display setting -- of a chosen shape.
Some day I'll get ambitious and rewrite it to let you set sizes on the fly too.
