Default Bullet Points in text boxes


Hello,

I have been asked to create a template for a colleague. They specifically asked that if and when a textbox was added, then it would have bullet points in it. In otherwords they do not want a slide with a placeholder whereby this can be done as standard but want to add textboxes.

I am not sure that this can be done and am about to advise her that it is best to add a slide with a placeholder which can be resized and moved accordingly, but I just wanted to make sure that I am not missing anything here. Perhaps this can be done?

Your feedback is appreciated.

Depends what they mean.

If they want levels of bullets as in a placeholder there's no way to get that.

If they want a simple bullet you can do that.

On your template file add a textbox to the slide. Add the bullet and RIGHt click > Set
as Default Textbox.

Delete the box and save (as a potx template)
