c Drag the marker to change the space between the bullet and its text.

Applying Your Changes as You Work

As you work on a master slide, you can try out your changes on a normal slide to get a

better sense of how the new layout will look. By going back and forth between the

“test” slide and the master slide, you can make fine adjustments, such as making lines

longer or shorter, or adding multiple indent levels. Seeing a slide with text on it is

especially useful when adjusting tab stops and line spacing.

To create a test slide in the slide organizer, create a slide based on the master; if you

make changes to the slide that override the master, reapply the master to the test

slide each time you make a change.

To reapply the master slide to a slide in the slide organizer:

m Select the slide in the slide organizer, then choose Format > Reapply Master to Slide.

Setting Default Slide Transitions

You can specify a default transition style for any master slide. Slides based on this

master use the specified style to go to the next slide.

To set the default transition style for a master slide:

1 Select the master slide in the master slide organizer.

2 In the Transition pane of the Master Slide Inspector, choose a transition style,

direction, and speed.

For more information about slide transitions, see “Adding Transitions Between Slides”

on page 105.
