In this PowerPoint tips and trick tutorial learn how to merge shapes correctly in PowerPoint. This way you can create your own custom shape or typography (Font style) in PowerPoint.
Combining shapes properly and using a custom background image inside the merged shape will allow you to create more professional PowerPoint presentations. You can create custom fonts or typography like the "Walking Dead" title.
Aside from creating custom shapes with the merge shapes feature, you also learn how to edit shapes by adjusting the points. You can also add points to each side of the shape you'd like to adjust. This allows you to alter any existing PowerPoint shape and create your own custom shape library in PowerPoint.
We'll cover some useful PowerPoint shortcuts like copying shapes by holding down the control and the shift keys to make sure they are copied on the same level.

Thank you so much for all of your videos Leila! They've helped me advance my knowledge in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint and I continue to share your name as a MUST for anyone looking to boost their knowledge. There is a raise right around the corner for me at work and it is all because of you! Subscribed and looking forward to every Thursday!
When you fragment the shapes with letters you can then use the Morph transition to create some creative effects! Ex. Having the letters turn into puzzle pieces and form a puzzle.

I really liked this video! There are some many cool things that have been developed and featured in all the MS Office Products. I love how you present them in a clear understandable fashion so that even beginners can follow along! Great Job! The fracture effect was really nice.
You are the best teacher i found on KZread so far. The best and simple explanation of everything. Improved on Powerpoint and Excel a lot. Thank You So So much!!
WOW! So simple, yet so effective!
Amazing....the Excel series...Accounting series and the PowerPoint series.....👏👏👏👏👏
Great help, thank you for the clarification of how to use theese features.
Fantastic topic.... ice cream, my favourite! I remember spending hours trying to draw 4 interlocking jigsaw shapes in PPT 2010 by adding lots of points and smoothing them, this would have saved me so much hassle. A first class presentation. I've seen a number of your videos now and they have all taught me something new. Great work. Thanks.

Love the intersect option. Is there a way to create a shape from, say, a transparent PNG photograph or illustration of an actual "thing", such as a car or a bottle for example? I would like to know how to do this for things with recognisable shapes and put photos inside them, if that makes sense.
This is just awesome. Thank you so much
