Text Box Alignment

Hello,
When I place a text box on a slide, it centers the text as a default. This
seems to have just started out of the blue.

I have read all of the other posts and done everything but none of them seem
to change the situation.

It is driving me nuts to have to reset the text box every time I place a new
one on the slide. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Click OFF the slide so nothing is selected.
Click the Left or Right justify button on the Formatting toolbar, or choose
Format, Alignment and pick the alignment you want.

That'll set the default for new text boxes you add.
You can set the default font, boldness, size etc. in the same way.
