Default Line graph not visible in slideshow

Using Powerpoint 2010 beta, when I put in an xy line graph in a slide; the
line series is not visible when I run the slideshow. Has anyone else
experienced this?

I don't recall seeing any reports of that during the beta, but I know I
wasn't aware of all bugs.

I can't repro it here on the RTM version. But I don't know what exactly you
mean by "xy line graph," so maybe I'm not looking at the right thing. Is it
an XY Scatter Plot where you've added lines to the data markers, or does it
just mean you selected an XY Scatter with Line option when you created the
chart, or is it something completely different?

Do you have any animations or anything on the chart?

Yes I meant specifically a XY Scatter Plot. I find when I run a slideshow
that I can see the data markers but not the "Smooth lines" that should
connect them when I have selected "Scatter with smooth lines and markers".
But I have discovered if I select "Scatter with straight lines and markers"
that I will see the lines and markers in the running slideshow.

Thanks for the additional information. I cannot repro this here using the
Scatter with Smooth Lines and Markers chart in the Office 2010 RTM (released
to mfg) version.

You might try Windows Safe Mode. If the lines can be seen when you run a
presentation in Windows while it's in Safe Mode, that's usually an indicator
of a video driver issue, and updating the driver may help.

You could also try adjusting hardware acceleration -- that often helps these
odd display issues. http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129.htm explains how.
