Is it possible to select multiple shapes in Powerpoint for iPad so, for example, I and move a group of items around the screen together?
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
PowerPoint now supports selecting multiple object on a slide!
You have to press and hold an object with one finger and then tap other objects with another finger.
Problem solved!!!!

Selecting multiple objects is currently not supported in PowerPoint for iPad.
If a set of items is already grouped (using a different client like PowerPoint for Windows/Mac), you can move those objects as a group on the iPad.
Thanks for the feedback, and let us know if there is anything else you would like to see improved!
Completely agreed . Planning on dumping the iPad version without this. I am in the business of consulting and this productivity drain ruins the product singlehandedly
Is selection of multiple objects supported as of 2016 in PowerPoint for iPad? With the iPad Pro, it's almost possible to use PPT for work purposes, and that would make all the difference...
No, selection of multiple objects is not yet supported in PowerPoint for iPad.
