5.3. Change a Slide Layout
If you decide a slide's original layout no longer works, you can apply a different slide layout in Normal view or Slide Sorter view.
If you select a layout that does not include an element from the original layout — such as a chart that you have set up — PowerPoint will keep that additional element on the slide, even with the new layout.
