PowerPoint builder version 2.0 (preview)
Version 2.0 builds a presentation differently if a layout template is used.
The aim is to improve and facilitate the maintenance of presentations and the compatibility of layout and content models in a new way.
Difference is explained in the table below if the content template slide(s) uses layout(s) that are not found in the layout template

The slide is linked to some of the layout template slide layout. It may not be appropriate for the slide content. | The slide layout is imported from the content template, so the content remains the same as it is in the content template. |
Layouts are compared based on their names. Layout names can be changed in master view.
