Q&A

NOTE: The layout and instructions for this master slide are included on the assumption that you would want to use a different image on each section

break slide. If so, the images have to be inserted on the slides themselves. And an orange circle has to be added in front of the image because the

circle on the master slide will get hidden when the image is added.
