In this PowerPoint tips and trick tutorial learn how to merge shapes correctly in PowerPoint. This way you can create your own custom shape or typography (Font style) in PowerPoint.
Understanding how to use merge shapes can be a bit tricky. Depending on whether you select Union, Combine, Fragment, Intersect or Subtract merge shape option, you will get different results. It also matters which shape you click on first before going to merge shapes options.

Combining shapes properly and using a custom background image inside the merged shape will allow you to create more professional PowerPoint presentations. You can create custom fonts or typography like the “Walking Dead” title.

Aside from creating custom shapes with the merge shapes feature, you also learn how to edit shapes by adjusting the points. You can also add points to each side of the shape you’d like to adjust. This allows you to alter any existing PowerPoint shape and create your own custom shape library in PowerPoint.
