A More-Useful Office Suite
New features for Microsoft Office apps are in the mix on Surface Studio, too. One new PowerPoint feature designed for Surface Studio is called Ink Replay, which lets users write or draw on PowerPoint slides and then let recipients play back the creation. For instance, this might let a math student could "look over their teacher's shoulder" to see how the teacher went about solving a problem. The replay can be done with a mouse but it's optimized for use with the new Surface Dial scroll-wheel. Office 365 subscribers are scheduled to get the feature in the near future.
Also coming to Microsoft Word is the new Ink Editor feature, which lets users mark up Word documents with handwritten notes while also using the digital pen to accomplish tasks such as highlighting and strike-through.
