PowerPoint probably won&#39;t offer any confirmation that you completed Step 6. After pressing Insert, if you want to make sure the degree sign really was inserted, just move the dialog box out of the way or close it to check.

<h2> Insert a Degree Symbol Using a Shortcut Key Combination </h2> Shortcut keys are more efficient, especially in the case of inserting symbols like this one where you&#39;d have to otherwise scroll through a list of dozens of other symbols to find the right one. In fact, this method works no matter where you are, including in an email, web browser, etc.

If it's on, the keypad will not accept number inputs. You cannot insert the degree symbol using the top row of numbers. Without a Number Keyboard Every laptop keyboard includes an Fn (function) key.

It&#39;s used to access additional features that are not normally available due to the lesser number of keys on a standard laptop keyboard. If you don&#39;t have a keypad on your keyboard, but you do have function keys, try this: Hold down the Alt and Fn keys together.Locate the keys that correspond to the function keys (the ones that are the same color as the Fn keys).Like above, press the keys that show 0176 and then release the Alt and Fn keys to insert the degree symbol.
