    PowerPoint is a great presentation tool, but it can also be a creative tool. While this video focuses on standard presentations, please feel free to share the creative ways you use PowerPoint.

    This is the best explanation. You literally demonstrated how to do the process.

    Back when I had a job, I definitely needed to do this. Alas, it doesn't much matter now. But if I get a new job and need to set my PPT up, I'll have to look this up again! Thanks for the video! 👍

  • @homeedconnect
    Heather, at the intro to your video when you're looking at the camera talking, do you have a script you're reading from? Why aren't your eyes moving? I'm trying to figure out how to put together my tutorials and I need a script! but I don't know how to deliver it. You do a really nice job.

    Hi Heather, thanks for the great video. I tried the "intersect" of picture and shape but whenever I leave the slide master and go to the main deck, the "hexagon" let's say is unclickable. Could this be due to a different PP version?
  • @jennyelenihealth
    Thanks! I saved my presentation with all the new designs in Slide Master, as a Template. Though I also Saved As a PowerPoint Project under my projects name elsewhere. Did I do that correctly?! As I wanted it as a template . But also thought I should Save As my actual presentation I did today.

    hi Heather. Great Slide. Quick Question. When I do a union of picture and hexagon, only the hexagon shape remains. Could you please on how that can be fixed
