i think its office 2013 or 2016, and heck. thank you for typing 'merge shape' and be on top of comment section, the video is just starting and now I got what I want. Means a lot to me, seriously
Tim, by any chance do you have any technique insight on converting custom shapes to become an image 'placeholder'? I have had limited success using the Merge/Intersect functions that work part of the time.
Yeah that is what this video should have been about. The question mark is still shaped like a question mark. It did not take on a shape, which is what fitting words into a shape should be. This video is more about "welding" text to other things so they can stay fixed together.
How can i convert a picture into form, i do not have this icon. I mean i saw by some powerpoint presentation after they insert an illustration, then right click, convert into shape, then they could edit it. Thanks!
Thanks but there is a problem with letter that has a "whole" inside such as D, O, P etc, how do I make that there is also a "whole" for the punched shape?

Nice video. Thanks. As an aside, am I the only one who doesn't know how to get the mini menu box to change the font? It's brilliant.
Thank you. Learned something new!
Thank you! I completely forgot this could be done.
Oh thank you! Worked like a charm!
Still relevant in 2022! Thank you for this. I'm able to complete my task. 😀
It saved my time . Thank you very much .
I don't know what version of PPT you are using + I work on a Mac. Great instruction, but can't find "merge shapes" in Mac version of Office 2011

This is amazing thanks for the brilliant tutorial 🔥🔥🔥
Is it possible to save the shape so it is available in other .ppt's, or must one do it on the fly every time it's needed?
question: How can I convert a custom irregular shape into a text box where text will wrap according to the shape?
Thanks in Advance!

Amazing thank you
Thanks but there is a problem with letter that has a "whole" inside such as D, O, P etc, how do I make that there is also a "whole" for the punched shape?
after you fragment, you have 3 pieces. you have to select the 'hole' and delete it.
thanks for solving my problem
Very nice. A bit more work if you have a letter with enclosed space (like a B or an A) but a very nice trick nonetheless!!
Merging text box with shape is not working at my PC.. (PP 2010) Merging Shape option not functioning i mean not highliting.

Thanks Bro.!

Any idea how to do Powerpoint 10
take off any fills or strokes and put squared shape onto the text and then merge them in any way u need. !2
So each time you want a different font you go all over again? Nah!
Just go to the point. this is a waste of time video
