A feature missing in Peer 2 is the ability to export an entire folder of graphs to PPT. Currently, you must do each one individually and if you click on the PPT icon, it opens a new instance of the program each time. The programmers have this on the fix list, but in the meantime I thought I'd share a shortcut that someone 'accidentally' stumbled on.
The first step is to click on "Copy" not "PowerPoint"

Next, open a new PPT presentation and select the layout that has a title box and content box, as seen below. Click
inside the box like you were going to type in text.
This is the critical step (and what had me jumping for joy when I found it)
. If you
don't highlight the box, the image pastes too large for the slide and you have re-size each one (don't ask how many presentations I built this way before figuring it out...)

Hit CTRL + V (for paste). The graph image is inserted in the box. Type in a title (hint: the graph already has a description--eg. "Loan Composition"--so make a statement about what you want the audience to take away from the graph).

Repeat as necessary. Not quite as simple and clean as Peer 1, but it's a decent work around until that upgrade is done.
