IBM Lotus Symphony


Applying a slide template to a slide Master

In IBM® Lotus® Symphony™ Presentations, you can set master pages for specified pages, import, or export template files.

Every slide in a presentation has exactly one slide master, also known as master page. A slide master determines the text formatting style for the title and outline and the background design for all slides that use this slide master. IBM Lotus Symphony Presentations supports template with multiple master pages.

To apply a new slide master

  1. Select Layout > Slide Templates or click the Slide Templates icon slide templates icon on the sidebar.
  2. On the Slide Templates panel, select a slide template category.
  3. Click one of the designs that you want to apply and the template will apply to all the slides. You can select Show Large Previewor Show Small Preview from the context menu.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • To apply the slide template to all slides in your presentation, right-click the template, and select Apply to All Slides from the context menu.
    • To apply the slide template to the current slide only, right-click the template, and select Apply to Selected Slides from the context menu.

In IBM Lotus Symphony Presentations, master slide can be copied and pasted in current presentation or among different presentations. The pasted master slide can be used as standard master slide and can be edited, be applied to normal slide, and be stored into ODF format.
