03:10	Click on the Background tab at the top left in the dialog box.
03:15	Then click on the Bitmap sub-tab and go to the Bitmap section on the left.
03:22	It has a list of images that can be used as a background for the slides.
03:29	Locate the image named ‘Fence’ and then click on it.
03:34	In the Preview box, we immediately see the preview of the selected image.
03:40	Leave all the other settings as default.
03:44	And click on the OK button at the bottom right corner.

04:20	Then click on the Color sub-tab.

04:34	If that is not so in your case, please select the ‘standard’ option.
04:40	From the color palette, click on any colour of your choice. I will select Blue.
04:48	The selected colour will be seen in the New box.
04:53	Now click on the OK button at the bottom right corner.
04:58	Notice that the colour of the entire Master slide has changed.
05:03	The background image is now replaced with this colour.

05:23	Right-click on the selected text.
05:26	From the context menu that appears, click on the Character option.
05:31	The Character dialog box opens up. Here, click on the Font Effects tab.

05:52	From the color palette, click on any colour of your choice. I will select Yellow.
06:01	The selected colour will be reflected in the text in the Preview area.
06:07	Click the OK button at the bottom right corner.
06:11	Click anywhere else outside the textbox.
06:15	Notice that the color of the body text has changed now.
06:20	Let’s now learn how to add other design elements to this slide.
06:26	For example, let’s add a logo to our presentation.
06:36	We’ll draw an imaginary logo of our own.
06:35	To do so, go to the Drawing Toolbar and then click on the ‘Insert Basic Shapes’ drop-down.
06:43	A variety of basic shapes are seen here.
06:48	I will click on the ‘Rectangle’ shape. If you prefer another shape, please choose that.
06:55	Now move the cursor to the top left corner of the title area in the slide.
07:02	The cursor turns into a plus sign with a capital I subscript.
07:08	Hold the left mouse button and drag to draw a rectangle as shown here. Now release the mouse button.
07:18	That is how a shape can be added in a Master slide.
07:23	Adjust the size of the rectangle as per your preference, using the Control points.
07:30	We will change the colour of this rectangle now.
07:34	So, right-click on the Rectangle and then click on the ‘Area’ option.
07:41	The Area dialog box appears on the screen.
07:45	In the Area tab, by default the Color sub-tab should already be selected. If not, please click on it.
07:55	From the Palette section, select any colour of your choice. I will select Light Orange 1.
08:05	The selected colour will be seen in the New box.
08:10	Click the OK button at the bottom right corner.
08:15	Notice that the color of the rectangle has changed.
08:19	However, notice that the text below the orange rectangle is not visible. Let’s learn how to make this text visible.
08:30	Make sure the rectangle is still selected.
08:34	On the Formatting Toolbar, click on the drop-down of the Arrange icon.
08:40	Then click on the Send to Back option.
08:44	Notice that the text becomes visible now.
08:48	Click anywhere else outside the textboxes.
08:52	After all the formatting to the Master slide is done, click on the Master Slide section in the Sidebar.
09:01	In the ‘Used in This Presentation’ section, locate the Master slide named ‘Default’.
09:08	Right-click on the ‘Default’ Master slide and then click on the ‘Apply to All Slides’ option.
09:16	Finally, click on the Close Master View icon in the Standard Toolbar.
09:22	Now close the Master Slide section for a better view.
09:27	The formatting changes made in the Master Slide are applied to all slides in the presentation.
09:35	Also, notice that the orange rectangle is displayed on all the slides.
09:42	And, this rectangle can only be edited using the Master Slide.
09:48	The settings in Master slide overrides any formatting changes or layouts applied to slides.
09:57	Let’s check what happens now when we add a new slide.
10:02	First, select the slide titled ‘Open Source Funny’ in the Slide Pane. And insert a new slide as shown here.
10:12	Notice that the rectangle we added using Master Slide is visible in the new slide as well.
10:20	Type ‘Potential Alternatives’ in the Title textbox and click outside the textbox.
10:28	Click on the Slide Layout icon in the Standard Toolbar. And select ‘Title, 2 Content over Content’ layout.
10:40	Now the inserted slide has three Body textboxes and a Title textbox.
10:47	Enter some content in the Body textboxes of the new slide, as shown here.
10:55	Let’s revisit all the slides and adjust the colour and spacing of the text on each one.
11:15	We will now save all these changes for future use and then close the presentation file.
