Mixing the different designs in the Master Slide within a presen

I have a slide pack template which has three master slides. When I create a new slide in the standard presentation (not a master slide) it will only let me create a slide based on only one of the three master slides. I would like to use a mix of all my master slides in the slide pack. When I right click on the slide that I want to change the template design for and selected "Slide Design" and then choose the slide design I want, it changes all the slides in my slide pack. I only want it to change for the slide I'm selecting.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could help.

Many thanks!

Debra

RE: Mixing the different designs in the Master Slide within a pr

Hello Debra

Thank you for your question.

Are all the master slides preserved in Slide Master view? If they are, then all designs should be available for you to use in the presentation.

To check, go into Slide Master view and see if each slide master has a little pin symbol next to it - if not, right-click on the masters without the pin symbol and select Preserve Master.

Then when you are applying the designs in the presentation, there should be the option to select 'Apply to selected slides' from the dropdown arrow that appears when you hold your mouse over the design.

Kind regards
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Take a Break During a Slide Show

A useful PowerPoint tip for those who give presentations

If you want to stop for a break in your slide show presentation without losing your place, just press the lowercase B key or press the PERIOD (.). This will make the screen go black.

If it is a self-running presentation, it will pause.

To resume the show, press either key again, and it resume right where you left off.
