Just wondering why Powerpoint on Mac does not have keyboard shortcuts for copy and paste format (format painter)? All other Office apps on Mac and also Windows support this shortcut. On Mac it is Cmd+Shift+C and Cmd+Shift+V.

    Is this what you are looking for?

    Note I am using the latest 16.20 fast Inder Version but it should be in 16.18 series of the regular version.
