6. What are AutoLayouts ?

• PowerPoint has an AutoLayout feature that attempts to reposition your slide content to match the corresponding slide layout.

• Works only with Text and Diagram Placeholders.

• The AutoLayout feature is switched on by default but can be easily removed:

  • click Tools menu,

    • AutoCorrect Options,

      • click AutoFormat as you type tab,

        • change Automatic layout for inserted objects option.

• Everytime you insert a new slide you will be asked to select the AutoLayout.

• You can always add and delete custom items later.
