Change inches to pixels in the Format object Size panel?

When I select an object, right-click to get FormatAutoshape, select
the Size tab, I get the object's size in inches. Is there a way to get
pixels instead? Fine tuning with pixels would be a lot easier than
with hundreths of an inch.

I understand what you're asking for but there's a small problem: WHAT pixels?

A shape that's full-slide size will fill the screen ... no matter what size the
screen is, so long as it's proportional to the slide size ... when you view
your show on it.

The same shape might be 1024 x 768 on one of my systems and 1280x1024 on
another. Someone else might see it at 800x600.

To tweak it on a known system, get the free PPTools Starter Set at
http://get.pptools.com

It includes a Units Calculator tool that gives you an idea how big the
currently selected shape is, in pixels, at current video resolution.
