PPT: Embedded Objects Resize When Title Master Exists (134871)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q134871

SYMPTOMS

If you embed an object through one of the OLE object placeholders in an AutoLayout and then add a Title master to your presentation, the embedded object resizes if its slide is formatted as a Title slide.

CAUSE

In this situation, when you change the AutoLayout, PowerPoint mistakes the OLE object placeholder for the sub-title placeholder. The OLE object takes on the size and positioning of the sub-title placeholder.

NOTE: OLE objects that are not created from AutoLayout placeholders are not affected.

RESOLUTION

If the object resizes and moves, you can drag it back to its original position and resize it by dragging the resize handles.
