I need to edit the master slide to include two title areas. I have tried
copying and pasting the one that is already there but it becomes a regular
text box and not an autoformat to be able to add text to each slide. Adding
a text box does the same thing. My goal is to have a main title, a subtitle
and a main area to add bullet points. When I click the "master layout" on
the Master slide toolbar none of the placeholder options are enabled. Please
help!!!
 
Sorry, this feature is not currently supported, but so many people ask
about it that maybe Microsoft will put it into a future release.

Click to expand...

Can't do it in PowerPoint, I'm afraid.

But have a look at http://shapestyles.pptools.com

It'll make adding a properly formatted subtitle a one-click affair. The free
demo allows you to create up to five styles, which may be all you need. If so,
use it in good health, no cost, no obligations, enjoy.
