PowerPoint offers various layouts to help you define and place the elements you want on a slide, such as a bulleted list, a chart, a table, or an organization chart.
To choose a layout:
-
Choose a layout from the Slide Layout task pane. If task panes are not open in the right column, choose View > Task Pane and then choose the Slide Layout task pane (Figure 2.7).
-
Click the desired layout to apply it to the current slide.

the task pane column on the right. (If the task panes are closed, choose View
> Task Pane from the main menu.)
TIP
With the Slide Layout task pane, you can request a new slide and a specific layout together. Pick the desired layout, click the drop-down list, and choose Insert New Slide. PowerPoint creates a new slide with that layout.
