Create a slide
By default, a new presentation contains one slide. This slide is used to create the title of the presentation and is called the title slide. Other slides should be added to the presentation manually.
By default, the new slide is placed after the slide selected in the Slide bar.
The following rules apply when adding new slides to a presentation:
•If you add a slide after the title slide, the layout of this slide is Title and Text, unless you selected another layout type manually.
•If you add a slide after any other slide type, a slide with an identical layout will be added, unless you selected another layout type manually. For example, if you add a slide after the Title and Text slide, the Title and Text slide will be added.
•If you select the slide layout manually, the slide with the selected layout type is added to the presentation regardless of the previous slide type.
