Where the 'Rehearse Timings' values saved in PowerPoint file?

Question

I have just created a powerpoint content file, and put a click event to all bullet points. After I rehearsed the timing for each bullet points using "Rehearse Timings". Now I want to see where the timing value for each bullet points saved. I can only see the new duration values for each slide transition. But I cannot able to see where rehearsed timing values saved for each bullet points.

Any help where I can see rehearsed time value for bullet points?

Answer 1

There's no way to view these timings via the user interface, but you can view them using VBA code. They're stored in a tag named TIMING on the slide object and look like this:

TIMING |4.5|3.4|3.7|1.4|0.2

Here's a little code that'll display the timings for each slide:

Sub thing()
Dim x As Long
Dim oSl As Slide
For Each oSl In ActivePresentation.Slides

 Debug.Print "Slide: " & oSl.SlideIndex
 For x = 1 To oSl.Tags.Count
    Debug.Print vbTab; oSl.Tags.Name(x) & vbTab & oSl.Tags.Value(x)
 Next

Next    ' Slide
End Sub

1. rename pptx->zip
2. locate folder /pub/slides
3. for each slide{NN}.xml locate tag "advTm" and its value
