Default Changing slide size deletes slide master settings

Hi everyone,

I'm using a PPT file to make a card game. I have the slide master all set up with formatting, and the slides are in a business card size. Every slide uses the same slide master layout.

But now I have to change the game, and change the card size to 4"x6". But every time I change the slide size (either on the slide master tab or on the design tab), it completely deletes all of my existing formatting on the slide master, including the color theme for the file.



For example, the current slide master has the slide heading a colored-in box with a bevel, and the font is white.

When I resize the slides, the default no border/no fill slide heading and content boxes appear, and in their default sizes and places. Additionally, my custom color theme for the file is gone--not even a choice in the file anymore.

Is there any way around this? I just want to change the slide size and keep all my formatting.

Thanks!

Holly

I can repro that Holly in 2013 (not in 2010 though)

Looks like a bug to me.
