I need some advanced help with creating "Click to add" placeholder text in PowerPoint. I'm looking for the same concept as the placeholder text you create for the "Master" slide, but this would be for the actual slide not on a Master slide.



I'm building out a communications template where the user will fill in their own content, but I want to put instructions in the text fields that they will be filling out. So, when they click in the text field my instructions disappear and the text field becomes editable for the end user.

I have to do this on the slide and not the Master slide, to many variables in the content/layout.

Anyone know how to tap into the coding/visual basic functions allowed within Powerpoint? Or any other tips??

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks...
