Hope folks don't mind that I keep coming back to the well....especially @mfherman!
Can anyone help me create a custom powerpoint template that would correspond to the following slides? Slide 1 is a Cover or Title page, Slide 2 is a Commentary Page (No Charts), and Slide 3 is a mix of Charts and Commentary (Slides 2 and 3 are typically repeated with differing content multiple times within a presentation.)
What have you tried so far? Where are you having problems? Below are some of the resources that have helped me to make PPT templates to render using R Markdown:
I've tried a bunch of different things (kind of throwing stuff against the wall - and I didn't save them when they didn't work.) I'll spend some time with these references - thanks again for the help!
I've tried both of these templates and both produce the same output (Black, Centered Text on Title Page, and Chart on slide 2 without the desired Header Bar and Language.)
The second 3 slides show Template_2 which has 3 slides when viewing the Master Layout - the 3rd slide is blank and PPT won't let me delete it. See attached images.
I've changed the color and alignment of the title on the main slide and added a title slide. Hopefully you can use this as a starting point for futher customization. This is the code the results in the following slide
Thanks Matt - some of the things I’ve read are starting to click as I read your solution. Really appreciate your help and patience with these iterations! Thanks again.
