MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / April 2006Adding a "Title Area for AutoLayouts" text box to master slide
I need to edit the master slide to include two title areas. I have tried copying and pasting the one that is already there but it becomes a regular text box and not an autoformat to be able to add text to each slide. Adding a text box does the same thing. My goal is to have a main title, a subtitle and a main area to add bullet points. When I click the "master layout" on the Master slide toolbar none of the placeholder options are enabled. Please help!!! sorry you cant add placeholders!  SignatureHope that helps > I need to edit the master slide to include two title areas.

Please > help!!! Can't do it in PowerPoint, I'm afraid. But have a look at http://shapestyles.pptools.com It'll make adding a properly formatted subtitle a one-click affair. The free demo allows you to create up to five styles, which may be all you need. If so, use it in good health, no cost, no obligations, enjoy. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ |
