"Linked" Masters in PowerPoint 2002
By Selecting View, Master, Slide Master, I can see that this presentation has 4 Masters. Master's 2 and 3 are connected with a little grey line on their left side. Also, when clicking the Design icon and viewing "Used in this Presentation", I see only 3 Masters. And while using the down arrow to cycle through the 4 Masters back on the left side of the screen, the highlight of course goes from one "Used in this Presentation" at a time back on the right side of the screen. However, it takes two down arrows on the left ("Linked" Masters 2 & 3) to make a corresponding movement back on the right. I've searched help for connected, linked, etc. but don't know what this is, or how to undo it, or why it may even be necessary. |

"Linked" Masters in PowerPoint 2002
It's connected because one is a slide master, while the other is a titile
master. In the design panel, you will see only 3 master. The title master will not be there. To get the title master, you will need to select the slide master that is connected to the title master. Then, go to Format Slide Layout, and select one of the options under the text layouts. -- Shawn Toh (tohlz) Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP PowerPoint) Site Updated: May 21, 2006 Added PowerPoint Movies. http://pptheaven.mvps.org PowerPoint Heaven - The Power to Animate "Access101" wrote: By Selecting View, Master, Slide Master, I can see that this presentation has 4 Masters.

"Linked" Masters in PowerPoint 2002
Thanks for your quick response.
Just needed to make a clarification. After selecting the Slide Master, and then selecting Format, I don't see Slide Layout. I see Slide Design or Master Layout. If I select Master layout, i see a dlg with Placeholders, and greyed out chkboxes for Title, Text, Date, Slide Number, Footer. If I choose Slide Design, I see those pictures of slides "Used in this presentation". What option should I choose to get to the Title Master itself. Your continued assistance is appreciated.

What option should I choose to get to the Title Master itself. PowerPoint will use the "connected" Title Master if you add a slide with a Title autolayout. Otherwise it uses the regular Slide Master from the connected pair. |

Just needed to make a clarification. After selecting the Slide Master,
and then selecting Format, I don't see Slide Layout. You have to be in Normal view to see the slide layouts. So close Master view first. Best regards, Ute -- Ute Simon Microsoft PowerPoint MVP Team und PowerPoint-User-Team Tipps, Tricks und Kostenloser Newsletter: www.ppt-user.de |
