Slide Master in Storyline 360
May 14, 2019
I am developing Storyline templates for our organisation and want to use the Slide Master. I have a png image as our back ground to a title slide and a thank you slide, however I want the title and content to be blank, plain white. Is there a way I can insert this as part of our template in the Slide Master? Everytime I add in a new slide it comes up whit the png image. My other thought is that I don't use the Slide Master which allows me to insert a blank slide in between the title slide and thank you slide.

Hi Angela,
Here is a link to a short Peek video that will show you how to set up your Master Slide set to suit your needs. If you have any queries, just get back to me with another post.
Dear Mark, thank you so much for your quick reply. Your demonstration was great and exactly what I was after!
Mark, just a quick questions. My title first title slide, where I added in the background, does not come up in the Slides > Basic Layouts (which is fine) but when I go to edit view, the Thank you slide is coming up only. How do I ensure the Title slide is shown?
Hi Angela,
When you select a new slide layout, the main Master Slide won't appear on your list. What you get are all the slides underneath it that form your Master Slide set. The first one is "Title and Content" and the next one is "Title Only", which is why I left the background image on this one.
If you are still having problems, share a copy of your Storyline file here and I will have a look.

I also just noticed the other slides in the Master should be white. I think I have sent you a version where they are blue.
Hi Angela,
I'm not sure I fully understand your query, but based on what I think you're after, the link below will hopefully get you back on track:

Thanks Mark, that is what I was wanting to do :)
With regards to the blue background, just go back into the Slide Master view and change the colour of the solid fill to white and all will be good.
All done and it looks great, thanks again. I will delete my Articulate file on this forum for security purposes now.
Just for future reference, it's Ned not Mark :) :)
Oh goodness, I'm so sorry :/
No need to worry. It made me smile :)
Hi Ned :)
I have populated my Stroyline Slide Master with my background images (I had 7 templates to put together and it was really simple). I'm just wondering why another Master style is coming in in tje Slide Master view, called Vibrance. I've attached the file for you to have a look at. I'm not sure how to get rid of it.
Hi Angela,
The reason you now have the Vibrance Slide Master set in Slide Master View is because slide 1.4 is set to a Vibrance layout (I assume you may have imported the slide from elsewhere and it has brought that layout with it).
You have two options. Either you can live with it because you like the look of the slide as it is or you can apply a layout from your new Slide Master set and then adjust the slide as necessary to recreate its original look.
I have had a quick look at it and if you select the Question layout from your new Slide Master set, all you have to do is to then add back in the grey background behind your options.
Once you have done that, if you select View > Slide Master and right click on the Vibrance Master Slide (the top of the Vibrance tree) and click Delete, it will remove the Vibrance set from your Slide Masters,
If you have any queries, just get back to me.
