2. On the Formatting toolbar, click Decrease Indent until a new slide icon and number appear (the split text will appear below that, as body text), and then type the title for the new slide.
Tip
There's another way to split a text between two slides. While you're typing into a text placeholder on a slide, in a single-column layout, if the amount of the text is more than the placeholder can contain, the AutoFit Options button appears to the left of the text. When you click it, it displays options that include splitting the text onto two slides or creating a blank second slide with the same slide title, on which you can type an additional text.
Duplicated slides are inserted directly below the slides you have selected.
