goddi Posted September 23, 2019 Report Posted September 23, 2019 Igor, I understand that we can use 'Project Options', 'Defaults', 'Insert template'. Make a selection and then 'Apply to all slides'. This can be applied to all existing slides and new slides. However, it would be helpful to be able to 'insert a template' from this menu to individually selected slides (not all existing slides) that have already been placed in the Slides. I don't think this can be done presently. (As Lin has pointed out, you can 'apply to all slides' and then individually remove the ones you don't want in O&A). Gary Quote
davegee Posted September 23, 2019 Report Posted September 23, 2019 Not to detract from your suggestion, but you CAN apply a Style to selected slides. DG Quote

DG Yes, but then you have to deal with resetting the Duration and applying a Style will remove any previous settings made for the slide. Gary Quote

DG Dave, If I am offtrack in what I have said, let me know. No, no problems with Styles but if I can do something within the existing menus and not undue any setting I have already put into a slide, it makes sense not to use a Style. The Style is good for a slide that has not had any processing or settings made to it yet. A Style can be disruptive to what you have already implemented to a slide. Styles are great for what they do but you have to be a bit careful in their use. I've actually used them and made some for myself!!!! Gary Quote
davegee Posted September 23, 2019 Report Posted September 23, 2019 No, you are good. I was thinking that Composite Styles and forward thinking in the planning of a show can make Styles very useful and time-saving during a project. If captioning is an afterthought then I agree that a captioning Style would "undo" some hard work done in animating a slide. Quote

I just noticed that since I went to the RCs, all my 'Settings/Preferences' were not all checked and I did not see the 'Comment' box was missing. Gary Quote
