Add Text to a Slide

The first slide, the Title Slide, has a different layout than the rest of the slides. The Title slide is like the cover on a book.

 

The technical term for the Text Box is Placeholder. The first example adds text into the placeholder.

 

Before You Begin: Use the Slide Pane on the left side to click on Slide 1. When it is selected you will see it highlighted with a border.

 

2. Try it: Enter Text in a Text Box

Slide 1 is selected. There are two Text Boxes. Click in the top Text Box.

Type: Spring Has Sprung

 

What Do You See? The Text Box has a dashed line around the Border. There are handles in each corner and on the sides.

 

What Else Do You See? The words in the Title are big (60 pt) and centered.
