155 6 Slide types and layouts
Every slide you have inserted has had placeholders formatted in a default way. A default background colour. Default positioning on the slide and no animation efects applied whatsoever. If we could change the defaults for each of the slide
layouts you have applied to your presentation then we could concentrate putting the text in the outline and the slides themselves would be already formatted for the main part in the way we would like. his is a much faster way of working and
enables us to concentrate on the content rather than having to spend so much time formatting each and every slide. To do
this we use master slides to hold the default formatting or objects that we wish. BUT NOT THE TEXTUAL CONTENT.
Inserting Slides
he most regular thing you will have to do when building a presentation is to insert a new slide into the presentation. he slides holding your textual and graphical information can be inserted in several ways as you will notice throughout
this manual. We look here at the standard way of inserting slides so that you can then learn how to change the layout and format the slides.
To insert a slide
