Master slides

What are the benefits of using master slides? I feel it is easier to simply use your company template and click new slide, rather than using master and master title slides.

Kind regards
Jasmine

RE: Master slides

Hi Jasmine, thanks for your query. Your company template already has a Slide and Title Master attached to it as standard. It's into these slides you place all repeating elements such as logos, backgrounds and slide numbering and set the font and bullet hierarchy.

If there were no such things as a Slide and Title Master, you would have to insert repeating elements on every slide which, in a 200 slide presentation would be extremely time-consuming! If your company template is set up correctly, you should not need to alter elements such as font or bullet level font sizes, as these are set on the Master slides. Essentially, if the Slide and Title Master are set up correctly, creating a consistent and well-laid out presentation is a lot easier!

Hope this helps,

Anthony

PowerPoint tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in PowerPoint 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
