    Hi



    Is it possible that you can use the 'Point and Fix (Ctrl+Shift+A)' method in the Object Spy.  This will allow you to use PowerPoint to right-click on an object within a slide and select context menu options from which you can then highlight a field value then use Ctrl+Shift+A to see the properties.  For example, I was able to obtain a wText value of 5.89cm for a Height field, being one of the properties of an object on a slide.

Hi



I've never worked with PowerPoint and TestComplete before and an initial test shows that I can only see the slide via the Object Spy and not any of its components.  Is it an option for you to obtain a region checkpoint of how the slide should look after the alterations?  If so, you could then do region comparison, which will show in the log file either as having passed or failed.
