How to add instructional text in the slide master
Placeholders are more like predefined containers that hold specific content like text, images, or videos on slides. They simplify content insertion by providing predefined areas for content and ensure a uniform layout across all slides using the same master layout.
If you want instructional text to appear on each slide using the same master layout without the need for further editing on the slide, avoid placing text in text placeholders. Instead, insert a text box with the instructional text.
Thank you Nedim, but I don't understand how adding a textbox in the slide master would function as instructional text. Doing that makes the text fixed (not possible to edit it) once the layout is applied outside of the slide master.
Am I missing something here?
What I want is for the textboxes in a slide layout to show something like "enter slide Header" and have that text dissappear once the user clicks the box to enter the text.
