Question: I have 1000s of lines in Notepad++. I need a Search and Replace formula that breaks lines with the following pattern:

**a single number/space/name that starts with a capital letter**

The resultant new line must begin with the capitalized letter of the name, so that …

```
Northern Harmony p,3,1:52.2 
SOME VINTAGE BEACH  
Mach Three p,3,1:49 Somebeachsomewhere p,3,1:46.4 -
Wheres The Beach Douknowwhereurgoin p,3,1:52.1

```

… becomes:

```
Northern Harmony p,3,1:52.2 
SOME VINTAGE BEACH  
Mach Three p,3,1:49 
Somebeachsomewhere p,3,1:46.4 -
Wheres The Beach Douknowwhereurgoin p,3,1:52.1

```

I can find the string in “**Find what**” using: (?=[1-9] [A-Z])

But I can’t figure out the simpler task of what to enter into “**Replace with**” to create the new line starting with the capitalized letter of the name.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Answer: 
No, there's no equivalent in PPT; instead, you could select then group all of the shapes you want to move together.
It is possible to create a Drawing Canvas in MS Word then copy/paste into MS PowerPoint. However, as [Steve Rindsberg answered](https://superuser.com/questions/1594898/ms-word-drawing-canvas-equivalent-in-powerpoint#answer-1595682), there does not appear to be native support for creating these in MS PowerPoint. However, the editing experience is not ideal / equivalent. For example, I can move/edit shapes on the canvas, but I can't seem to create new ones in there while in MS PowerPoint -- instead have to do it all in MS Word then copy back, which is cumbersome.
