I have a pdf powerpoint presentation. On each slide, there are small bullets on the left hand side with the titles of the slides. So you can just click on a little bullet to go to a slide. Also there are page numbers on each slide.
How do you get the small bullets and page numbers on the slides?
Go to insert, then Header and footer.
From here, under the slide tab, check the box for slide number, and click Apply to All
This will make a slide number appear on your page.
Getting a page number on each slide depends somewhat on which version of PPT you have, but basically, you go to the slide master and use Powerpoint's own command to add a slide number footer.
As to the bullets, it's hard to know exactly what you're seeing. It doesn't sound like the normal PDF thumbnail pane. To get the same effect, you could add the bullets (any shape, really) to the slide master, add the slide titles, then add links to each slide. Quite a job if you're doing it manually; it could be done in code, I expect, though.

Running Windows 7 with two monitors, vertical setup
I want to have more convenient window sizing for vertical monitor setup. Currently there is the normal 'drag window to side of screen' to auto-resize the window to half the screen horizontally. Is there a way to auto-resize to half the screen vertically?
ie. drag to the lower half of the side of the screen to resize to take up the bottom half of the screen and drag to the upper side of the screen to resize to take up the top half.
Is this possible? What software would be best for this?
This is not possible in native Windows. Windows 10 might help you a bit however (corner auto-resizse).
I can imagine someone would be able to programm such a solution for Hotkeys, but not by dragging.

I've got an issue with SVG files generated by a program. They validate fine, display fine in browsers and in OS X Preview, but display as a big black box in Illustrator or InkScape or various other programs.
I suspect there's something to do with transparency or a tag not being supported or something, but I don't really know what - and a cursory glance looks fine...
There are hundreds of these. I can write a script to correct them all but I don't know what to correct...!

Using an rgba syntax for fill is not supported everywhere. Try using rgb values e.g. rgb(255, 255, 255), hex colours e.g. #ffffff or named colours e.g. white.
You don't need the a anyway as your opacities are always 1 and if you did it would be more portable to specify a separate fill-opacity value.

Let's say I have a very simple image with a few colours (white, black, grey). And I have a set of tiny images (lots of them). Is there any library that can help me rebuild the big image using all of the tiny images as building blocks? Like a mosaic.
Here's an example: http://d.pr/i/LJ0Z
P.S. I've tried to google a solution, but it seems I can't create correct search query because of my bad english. I only get software solutions for creating mosaics.
Just posting a solution to my problem here in case anyone will need in the future.
Let's say you have a simple image with a few colours. You need to re-create it with a set of smaller images (like a mosaic).
Split your image into cells (4x4, 8x8 or any other number) and assign corresponding colour for each cells (in other words "pixelate" your image), create array of cells for each color you have.
Implement listing #4 for Maximal Rectangle Problem from this article: http://www.drdobbs.com/database/the-maximal-rectangle-problem/184410529 (huge thanks to David Vandevoorde for such a great explanation!)
Now, for each small image you have (pieces of mosaic), determine its size as a rectangle. Then, using rectangle packing algorithm of your choice fill the max rectangles with these small images (I've been using this one for C#: http://kossovsky.net/index.php/2009/07/cshar-rectangle-packing/ again, huge thanks to the author for sharing!)
That's it. It's not very fast, but it gets the job done.
this search turns up various results:
andreamosaic
pixisnap
etc.
adding "python library" found osaic. repeat for whatever language you are using...

I am creating a presentation and I run in a weird situation!
I have a slide divided into 2 columns! On the left I want to have a bullet list whose items appear one by one as I press Enter or the right arrow key and on the right I want to have an image depending on the last visible item of the list.
That means that while I hit Enter and bullet items appear I want the image to change and I want that to happen both ways!
Does anybody know how to do that?! All that action happens in one slide! Creating 20 different slides with each "frame" isnt something I would like to do, unless of course there is no other way!
Thank you very much for your time in advance!:)

Using good animation technique in PowerPoint, its easy to do what you want. The drawback is that it will be hard for others to understand the slide outside the slideshow.
If the no. of items are less, it will be easy for you to do what you seek.
Can you post your slide here for proper understanding?
Anyways, Try these steps if you can undersatnd:
Give Entrance animation to Item 1 name on left [On Click]
Give Entrance animation to the item 1 image on right [with previous]
Give Entrance animation to Item 2 name on left [On Click]
Give Exit animation to the item 1 image on right [with previous]
Give Entrance animation to the item 2 image on right [with previous]
and so on . . .
* Keep the images on the right, one over the other, so that it gives the illusion of images getting replaced.
Hope this helps

I have this larger image: http://imgur.com/henxc that I need to create a smaller tile of to repeat as a background. However I'm having difficulty knowing what part I need to crop. Can someone please explain how to make this into a small piece that will tile? Is there a technique in Photoshop to make this easier maybe?
You can test if an image will "tile" by cutting it in half (copy half to another layer) and moving the left half to the right side and vice versa. Then you will see how the edges of the tile line up and can make adjustments. You can move one half over the other until they match up, mark them, and use that mark as the edge of the tile. Then repeat the process vertically.
This tut explains it better than I can (and with pictures) starting at step 5.
You should use the offset filter. You need to find the value which is exactly half of your image and enter for both of the numebrs. To get to it go to Filter > Other > Offset.
