I am looking for a way to create a template in which a transparent logo is always on top of an image placeholder.

Google doesn't seem to be very helpful in that area.

What I have found out so far is that PowerPoint always puts the placeholder on top of the eventual slide, and it seems there is no easy way to send a placeholder behind a logo that is placed already in the master.

Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thx Guys.

  • Not certain, but a thought... change the slide background to be your placeholder maybe? That will but it behind all items, including master slide items.

You are correct with your findings, if you place an image in your Slide Master the Placeholders rule - so use a place holder in your layer stack. I find that a Web Image Placeholder is a suitable element to use as its not a commonly used type of placeholder.

  • Create your Logo asset in .png or better still .svg
  • Place Web Image Placeholder in Slide Master and 'Fill' with Logo Asset
  • When you use your Layout, the Placeholder will retain the position in the stack.
