SUMMARY

To customize text backgrounds in PowerPoint, utilize the Slide Master feature. This allows users to set specific text as part of a background image, preventing the cursor from changing to an 'I' beam when hovering over the text. By applying these settings in the Master view, the text integrates seamlessly with the background, enhancing the overall design of the presentation. This method is effective for creating visually appealing slides without distracting cursor changes.

Hey,

I wanted to know if there was any way for getting text to becoming a part of a customized background in powerpoint. In other words, I don't want the arrow sign of the mouse to turn into a 'I' everytime I go over the text. I want it to become part of the background image.

Thanks,
