"Insert Icon" function missing, Macbook Pro, Office 365

Dear all,

After a lifetime spent downloading SVGs icons, I felt relieved when finally Microsoft decided to implement the insert icon function for the MacOS version of Office as well.

However, this feature is recently not available for me anymore. 

Here you find the details about my subscription:

  • Microsoft Office 2016, Personal 365 subscription;
  • Macbook Pro running Sierra 13.5

I already tried several things to fix this issue:

  • I already try to search for the function in ribbon & toolbar, the function is not even there
  • I contacted the Microsoft service twice; none of the assistants was able to fix this issue
  • I uninstalled Office and reinstalled the older version, did not work
  • I updated Office, along with joining the Office insiderprogram, did not work either.

What is happening and how can I fix this? I work a lot with PowerPoint and that tool was a life-saver for me!

Thanks

    You should extend the screenshot to show the type of license 2 lines down.

    Hi, I am well aware of where to find the insert icon option. I am an advanced user and have been using PPT for a very long time.

    As you can see in the screenshot here, the option is missing and, before you say anything, it is also disappeared from the ribbon options.
