Truly a masterclass in PowerPoint template creation. As a Mac user, I've often struggled with the intricacies of Microsoft products, but this video provided clear and intuitive insights that have really helped me understand and appreciate PowerPoint more deeply.
Truly a Masterclass! This video is amazing, thorough, and even covers the nuances/differences for those using the Mac version of PowerPoint (which often gets ignored in most PowerPoint tutorials).
Thanks !!! I finally get it. I never understood how this theme & template logic works. This is amazing explanation. I'm very grateful, you've made it so clear.
Wow. Thank you so much - that's most definitely the best training content I've ever seen on here. So thorough and logically delivered. You clearly take great pride in your work!
Thank you Hwayda. You are a masterful teacher!!! I've watch a lot of online tutorials and they are usually a bit painful and stressful to follow but your explanations are so beautifully clear. It's a work of art. I'm actually enjoying watching a PPT training video! And the speed is perfect too. :)
Thank you for such a great training session. I have to create a ppt template for our company and its been a frustrating experience, until I found your class ;) What a lifesaver!
I was looking to create my own template for all the presentations i was planning to do for PhD. Your video has been immensely helpful and I learned the benefit of this system.
Hi - I dropped you a note last week through your website contact form. Can’t thank you enough for this insanely great and valuable content. These three tutorials are chock full of really great stuff and come at a really opportune time for me as I’m being asked to do a lot of deck cleanups. If there’s ever a part 4 can you touch on these: 1)providing specs and use guidance to SMEs or clients; 2) updating templates; 3)animations and their value on placeholders or backgrounds. Thanks.
@@MagnasMedia Hi -- just rewatched this after a year and it continues to impress with the level of helpful insights. It's unfortunate that AI and 3rd-party templates sites are dumbing down the template-creation process. Just curious -- toward the end you ding your resource go-to's for not offering true templates. Have you ever reached out to them about this? Given the cost for some of these subscription sites, seems like they should up the game a bit and learn from the expert. Thanks again!!
Thank you! No I have not reached out as envato elements features hundreds of designers. Technically they are providing design ideas but the files are not setup properly. I stopped buying templates, however I still use EnvatoElements for graphics, images, and icons. I prefer to setup my templates with a new file to avoid importing any bugs. Individual and small companies can use any software they want and click on the AI helpers. However for organizations with 10 users or more, themes and templates will be the way ensure brand consistency and quality.
wow I really learned so much from this video thank you so much!! the information about being able to break down the svg files within powerpoint is GAMECHANGING
Hello. I am Mac user and Roboto is the custom font we use for our PointPoint presentations. I do not understand in your example how you created a Roboto.xml file in your Themes folder. I am starting from scratch and did not get to that step to edit the XML file that you showed in minute 24 of your video. Can you help me understand how or when you created a custom Roboto font in the Slide Master? Thank you for your help.
For sure. I have a special video to show how to do that: ruclips.net/video/ll5ves408RM/видео.html You can also find the sample XML files at: magnasmedia.pro/blog/powerpoint-theme-fonts-mac-users
Hi! I just wanted to say thank you so much for this content, it's really very well made and extremely informative. I'm having one issue with regards to bullets and their formatting and wondered if you might know of a fix; I've noticed that if in the slide master you remove the bullet from the first level of text (as you did in your example) and later add that bullet back in using the design ribbon, the formatting of the subsequent levels breaks (at least when you use tab or shift+tab to adjust levels). So let's say that I start typing in your basic title+content slide (the text appears without a bullet, cause I removed it in slide master), then i want to add a bullet. I click the bullet-button in the design ribbon and want to keep adding sub-bullets so I press shift+tab to indent: this is where the formatting breaks. The font size and bullet style work fine, but the indentation is wrong and only fixes if I reset the slide. The only fix I can think of is if I format the first and second levels to look exactly the same, then pressing shift+tab TWICE gives me the list formatting I want. The downside of this is that now the first line of text is always a bullet, which I wanted to avoid in the first place (like you in your example)😄 Anyways, hopefully I explained it so that you caught the issue and thanks so much if you're able to help. All the best!
Thank you for asking! Yes, that could be an issue if you need the bullet again. In that case, please keep all the bullets on the primary master slide but remove the first one from subsequent theme slides. Or you can create an additional theme slide that has no bullets. That way, you maintain the default slide but have a second option with no bullets. Or keep the bullets in the theme but remove them on the front end as needed. Your decision will depend on how often you use bullets for your content.
