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.

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.

Thanks for this deep dive on this feature @Leila. You didn't mention the coolest part of the Subtraction which is that is puts holes in the image/shape which can be coupled with color/content behind in order to bring different focus to elements behind. For example: Very large black rectangle IN FRONT with transparency set to 65%... pop a circular hole in the middle to provide a clear view calling out a part of the content. Move around to change focus from step to step (animation or morph). You rule!

Hi Leila, thanks for the value you share. Do you have any tips on how to create fast multiple choice answers in powerpoint with a layout that should be copied in 100 slides? I know how to do the layout for the multiple choice answers on 1 slide. But how do you copy that to all your other slides if every slide got different multiple choice answers with text of different length?
