Editing Outline Icons in PowerPoint

Slide Content

The slide outlines steps for modifying outline icons in PowerPoint, focusing on altering the icon's color and line weight. The ability to change an icon's outline color is demonstrated by showing the PowerPoint color selection tool and its application on handshake icons with varying hues. Furthermore, adjusting the thickness of an icon's outline is simplified via the 'change shape weight' option, which offers different point sizes for outline thickness, again illustrated with different iterations of the handshake icon.

Graphical Look

• The slide background is white, with a light shadow at the top right corner, giving a slight depth effect.
• The title is presented in a large dark font, centered at the top middle of the slide.
• Two main text boxes are colored in dark teal with white text, explaining the actions to edit icons.
