Creating a Presentation
Each Keynote theme includes a family of master slides. Each master slide has a
different layout that may include title and body placeholder text, as well as object
placeholders for graphics, tables, and charts.
Most themes come with the master slide layouts described here:
When you create a new slide, it uses the master slide of the selected slide (except
when the selected slide is the first slide, Title & Subtitle). You can change a slide’s
master slide layout at any time.
To change the master for a slide:
1
Select the slide whose master slide layout you want to change.
2
Click Masters in the toolbar.
3
Select a master slide in the list.
For more information about modifying themes and master slides, see Chapter 9,
“Designing Your Own Master Slides and Themes.”
