How do I change the background color of a single slide?

[Latifa]

"Background styles" makes a global change on all slides. But I simply wish to
change the background color of individual slides, so that on some slides the
background color will be white, but on others black. I can't figure out how
to do this.

Thanks for all help!

and choose Format Background.

Your changes will apply to that slide or layout automatically. There's an
"apply to all" button you can use if you need.
