Create a slide master in PowerPoint
PowerPoint 2013
A slide master is the top slide in a hierarchy of slides that stores information about the theme and slide layouts of a presentation, including the background, color, fonts, effects, placeholder sizes, and positioning. To create a master slide:
On the View tab, click Slide Master. In Slide Master View, the slide master appears at the top of the thumbnail pane with related layouts beneath it.
Click to select the master slide, then click Master Layout on the Slide Master tab.
Make the updates that you want.
To remove any built-in slide layouts that accompany the default slide master, in the slide thumbnail pane, right-click each slide layout that you want to delete, then click Delete Layout.
To set the page orientation for all of the slides in your presentation, on the Slide Master tab, click Slide Orientation, then click either Portrait or Landscape.
On the File tab, click Save As.
In the File name box, type a file name.
In the Save as type list, click PowerPoint Template, then click Save.
Import a customized Quick Access Toolbar
You can import customization files to replace the current layout of the ribbon and Quick Access Toolbar. By being able to import the customization, you can keep Microsoft Office programs looking the same as your coworkers or from computer to computer.
Important: When you import a ribbon customization file, you lose all prior ribbon and Quick Access Toolbar customizations. If you think that you might want to revert to the customization you currently have, you should export them before importing any new customizations.
Click the File tab.
Under Help, click Options.
Click Quick Access Toolbar.
Click Import/Export, and then click Import customization file.
For more information about how to customize the ribbon, see Customize the ribbon in Office.
Why am I seeing a green ball?
You see a green ball if you added a custom group or command to the Quick Access Toolbar after you customized the ribbon, but didn't assign an icon to represent that custom group or command.
The icon is used if you do the following:
Add the custom group to the Quick Access Toolbar.
To help differentiate between your own customized ribbon and the default ribbon.
Add an icon to represent the custom group or command
Click the File tab.
Under Help, click Options.
Click Customize Ribbon.
In the Customize the Ribbon window, under the Customize the Ribbon list, click the custom group or command that you added.
Click Rename, and then in the Symbol list, click an icon.
In the Rename dialog box, click OK.
To see and save your customizations, click OK.
