changing text box position on multiple slides within project

Hello,

I have 42 slides with a layout like this in a project.

I want to change the text box position to the same place

on all slides.

Is there a way to do this in one stroke as opposed to doing

each one individually?

thanks!

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.4

Text Box - Resizing Handles - On All 4 Sides, or Just at the Top & Bottom I work in Keynote editing PowerPoint presentations for my organization. I am still a beginner with Keynote. I've noticed that the text box style on the slides I work on (converted from .ppt) appears to be random. Some have boxes with 4 resizing white dots, one on each side. Other text boxes only have a resizing white box on the sides. On these latter boxes, the box just resizes automatically as you type, which is no good if you have more text for your font than the slide allows. How can get text boxes that have exclusively 4 resizing handles? Alternatively, how can convert the two handled resizing boxes to 4 handled ones?

Can the content of Keynote slides be made to automatically overflow into a new slide? If I am cutting-and-pasting content in Keynote slides in larger chunks, the text may overflow the textbox for the slide. Is there a way of making the overflow automatically fill a new slide (such as happens in Pages, when a page is full) rather than merely overflowing the text box and having to be manually transferred to another slide? I believe that PowerPoint has that feature.

How do I edit a Master slide in Keynote? I don't see this in the dropdown menu in View where others suggest I go. My goal is to have a bit of the same text on each slide. Thank you.

Thanks for the reply!

Please forgive the lack of detail, but

each text box has different text and

although it changed the position on all

slides, it contained the original text as well

which doesn't work..

Just want to move all the boxes.
