Which keyboard shortcut is used in MS PowerPoint 365 to start editing text inside a selected shape or text box?

Correct option is D

The correct answer is (D) F2.

Explanation:

• F2 is the keyboard shortcut used in MS PowerPoint 365 to start editing text inside a selected shape or text box.

• When you select a shape or text box that already contains text, pressing F2 allows you to immediately begin editing the text inside it without needing to click within the text box.

• This shortcut is helpful for quickly editing text within objects during presentations.

Information Booster:

• F5 (Option A) is used to start the slideshow from the beginning, not for editing text.

• Ctrl + E (Option B) is not a default PowerPoint shortcut for text editing; it’s commonly used for center alignment in text-based applications.

• Alt + Enter (Option C) is not used for text editing in PowerPoint; it’s more commonly associated with opening properties in file management contexts.

Additional Information:

• F2 is also a commonly used shortcut in other Microsoft Office applications (like Excel and Word) for editing the contents of cells or text.
