Change a Picture from Clipboard via custom PowerPoint shortcut keys.

In standard PowerPoint it is not possible to change a picture from clipboard via shorcut keys (that is, to select a picture on your PowerPoint slide and select to paste your clipboard contents to replace the existing picture). But you can do this with PPT Productivity.

To set the shortcut, on the PPT Productivity Ribbon in PowerPoint go to Shortcuts > Manage shortcuts. The Manage Shortcuts popup will appear. In the 'Command Name' field type: Picture Change. A list of options will appear in the box below. Select the 'From clipboard....' option. Next, in the Assign new shortcut section, place your cursor in the field next to the words 'Press shortcut keys' and then press the shortcut key combination you would like to select for this shortcut. Next click Assign

Now you will be able to copy a picture to your clipboard, then select a picture in your presentation that needs to be updated. Once selected, if you use your shortcut key combination to Change Picture from Clipboard, the existing picture in the presentation will be replaced with the picture from your clipboard, but the original dimensions of the picture already in the presentation will be retained.
