How to do one-click annotation with PPT 2003 on a Tablet PC

[Sam Iam]

Hello all,

Would anyone know how I can add a one-click button to change the pointer to
a pen during a presentation on a tablet PC?

There are four faint buttons on the lower-left edge that do forward/reverse
with one tap, but the pen/pointer button is a drop-down list. So I have to
click once, then carefully pick the pen or highlighter from the menu. This
is rather awkward during a presentation and interrupts the whole flow.

All I need is a another button (or two) that is similar to the
forward/reverse buttons, but will select the pen once I tap on it rather
than popping a menu.

Thanks
Sam

Not sure about the button, but I know if you press Ctrl+P while showing a
presentation, you get the default pen color. Hope that helps.

Thanks. I came across this as well, but the computer will be on tablet mode,
so I can't access the keyboard. If I can figure out how to use pen gestures
for hotkeys while in presentation mode, I might be able to bind Ctrl+P to
one.
