Access to subAddress Property of Hyperlinks in Powerpoint Javascript API
Recently my company has me developing a Taskpane Add-in for Powerpoint using the Javascript API. Right now the API is still missing a 'subAddress' property for the Powerpoint.Hyperlink class. My heart's deepest longing is to add a slide to a presentation with existing slide-to-slide hyperlinks, check those hyperlinks for discrepancies between the slide ID and the text (ie: a Hyperlink reading '13' that now links to slide 14), and finally correct the text to the subaddress ID of the hyperlink in Javascript. It is my burning passion to do this for every hyperlink in my presentation with the push of a button. In the interest of all mankind I would ask that the 'subAddress' property of the hyperlinks be available for use in addition to the 'address' and 'screenTip' properties which now exist. To the microsoft dev who can grant me this boon I offer half my kingdom. Truly there is no dev more favoured than thee.
Stop scrolling across slides
Currently if you slowly scroll to the edge of a slide (to examine/edit the details there), all of a sudden you land in the adjacent slide, defeating the purpose of scrolling. My humble ask: please make mouse scrolling only move inside the same slide. NEVER jump to another slide. If near the edge, show a margin of the next slide but don't jump to it unless the mouse clicks on that margin. Page Up/Down keys should be used to jump between slides, AND jump to the exact same location of that slide -- very useful for quickly going through slides and see if elements stay in the consistent spot (elements could be different and can't be placed using the slide master). Ctrl + mouse drag = pan (feature request) Ctrl + mouse wheel = zoom (existing feature) Mouse drag alone = select (existing feature) Mouse wheel alone = scroll (existing feature -- but don't go across slides!) Page Up/Down = fly through slides (always land in the same location) Left/Right/Up/Down arrows = slow move inside slide (when no element is selected) Now imagine the productivity/experience enabled by this solution...
Font issue Inter in PowerPoint
Hi everyone The font "Inter" in PowerPoint incorrectly displays some special characters (ß, –, —) when exported as PDF. It shows correctly in PowerPoint and only displays as "No Glyph" when exported. As the letter "ß" is commonly used in German, this is a noticeable problem for us. The phenomenon is happening on all checked company devices, in the desktop software and browser version. I deleted the font multiple times and installed different versions (variable and static from Google and GitHub). We only use the light weight, but it also happens in the other weights. Does anyone have any idea why that is and how to fix it? I'm thankful for any hints!

Dear experts, Since version 16.100, the web add-in functionality has stopped working with the Office apps for Mac (PowerPoint, Word and Excel). In may case, Templafy web add-in is not being loaded. According to Templafy's support page: https://support.templafy.com/hc/en-us/articles/29028257609501-Templafy-Web-Add-ins-no-longer-accessible-on-Mac-after-Microsoft-Office-update-16-99 this seems to be a bigger issue. Clearing web add-in cache or deleting the WEF folder will not resolve the issue. I have also tried with a full clean uninstallation of Office365 apps and re-installation, same issue. Note that New Outlook for Mac is not affected, just PowerPoint, Excel and Word.
