Now when you add a new slide of the specific type you just set up, the default font will be the one you just choose in the master view. I usually choose the top one in the master view, and change fonts format there.

Then basically whatever slides I insert later, will have that font type by default. PowerPoint Mac 2011 I hate that I had to hunt for a template/theme I used before or change the default one. Here's how I changed the default so I always get the template/theme I always use as my default when opening PowerPoint. • Themes (found on the ribbon tab.

Along from home) • Edit Master (last of the large buttons) > then select 'Slide Master' • Make the changes you want to the Slide Master > Close Master • Save Theme (button to the left of where you found the Edit Master button) • Save Theme (again but now set your theme to 'Set Current Theme As Default').

By If you’re using PowerPoint in Office 2011 for Mac, you’ll find that each time you add a new slide to your presentation, it’ll have a PowerPoint slide layout consisting of placeholder boxes. The Blank layout has no placeholders.

You can choose a slide layout when inserting a new slide. On the Ribbon, click the Home tab. In the Slides group, click the small arrow to the right of the New Slide button to display the slide layout gallery. To switch to a different layout, click the Ribbon’s Home tab, and then in the Slides group, click Layout to display the Layout gallery. You can change the layout of any slide by selecting it and then clicking a different layout from the gallery. There are two basic kinds of placeholders. • Text placeholder: Similar to a regular text box, text placeholders have text in them and can be formatted just like text boxes.

Unlike regular text boxes, most text placeholders have bullets and numbering turned on by default so you type in an outline. • Content placeholder: You can recognize a content placeholder because it has six buttons in it that you click to insert an object such as a table or picture. A content placeholder does double duty. If you click into a content placeholder and then start typing, the buttons disappear and it turns into a text placeholder. All placeholders on a new slide start in a single layer. When you add text or content to a placeholder, each content item or text placeholder box becomes its own layer. When you insert an object that’s larger than your content placeholder, you may activate a floating toolbar that lets you choose how you want to handle the excess size: • Manual: You manually resize and crop the inserted object.
