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.

    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 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.
