[X] I have used the search tool and did not find an issue describing my bug.
Operating System
Windows 10 / 8.1 / 7
Version information
8.1.0.169 (x64 exe)
Expected Behavior
Worksheets originally created/embedded in a pptx using Office 365 PowerPoint (Microsoft® PowerPoint® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2403 Build 16.0.17425.20236) 64-bit) should display as images when the pptx is reopened in PowerPoint after those worksheets are edited in Presentation Editor. This issue does not affect worksheets embedded using Presentation Editor.
Test file created in PowerPoint:
Actual Behavior
Images are displayed in Presentation Editor:
Successfully edited worksheets in Presentation Editor:
Office 365 PowerPoint throws an error and does not display the worksheet images after editing in Presentation Editor. In my case, this affects worksheets that are created and embedded directly in Office 365 PowerPoint or embedded as an object in Office 365 PowerPoint from a separate xlsx file. This does not affect worksheets embedded in Presentation Editor.
Reproduction Steps
Insert worksheet (Insert>Table>Excel Spreadsheet) (or insert/embed separate xlsx file: Insert>Object>Create from file) in Office 365 PowerPoint.
Save pptx in PowerPoint.
Open pptx in Presentation Editor.
Edit and save worksheet in Presentation Editor.
Save pptx in Presentation Editor.
Open pptx in PowerPoint.
Additional information
After re-opening the affected pptx in PowerPoint and getting the error mentioned above, double-clicking on the image placeholder for the affected worksheets brings up the Excel editor, so the worksheets themselves are intact.
Clicking anywhere outside of the worksheet closes out the editor and a new image of the worksheet is generated. This image is successfully displayed when the pptx is saved and opened in PowerPoint at a later time.
This issue is unique.
