Did you try to install an add-in?
Can you give us the exact steps you're using to "deploy" and information on
what "shortcut menus" you're referring to?

I have tried to deploy this feature as a adjunct to my toolbar feature set.
However, whenever I select it, it appears and then disappears when I close
the toolbar modification dialogue box. What is this all about?
I go to VIEW>TOOLBARS>CUSTOMIZE, then I choose "Shortcut Menus." I look up at
the toolbar in the open presentation window, and a secondary toolbar appears
which allows for the editing of text, table, draw, & slide show. When I close
the customize dialogue box for toolbars, this specialized toolbar disappears.
What do you think? It seems like a pretty useful feature to have available.

Echo S said:Oooh, yeah, I can see where that toolbar would be useful.
Unfortunately, it disappears here, too, and I can't get it to stay visible.
I think it's probably a bug.
I tried docking it, and that didn't help. So I tried moving the commands on
it to another toolbar, but that didn't work, either.
You can actually build your own version of this by going to
View>Toolbars>Customize>Commands and choosing "built-in menus." You can drag
those to a new toolbar, and you can add other commands from the Commands tab
by dragging them to the new menus on the new toolbar.

Bill Foley said:This toolbar is only visible long enough for you to add items to it (similar
to adding icons to other toolbars, etc.), then they are subsequently
accessed by right-clicking (Shortcut menus) on various items throughout
PowerPoint. Of course it depends on which shortcut menu you added the new
items to. They cannot remain visible as a regular toolbar!

<CLICK!> [looks up] Wow, neat lightbulb! Bright, too.
Hey, you can even add items to the SlideShow popup menu. The couple I tried
don't seem to *work* mind you ... they're grayed out, but it's a start.
Thanks!
