Replacing background graphics of a PowerPoint theme

Solution 1

I had the same issue. To edit the background:

  1. Click on View -> Slide Master
  2. Click on View -> Slide Master again.

All the background images will become editable and copy-pasteable.

Definitely not intuitive.

Solution 2

In this case go to your Background Style and click on format background where there is a option picture/texture fill. Click on it and you can find the insert picture option. I think you can upload your desired background picture from here.

    I can do it. We can use Slide Master (view -> Slide Master) to change graphics or copy graphics. If you want to copy more than 1 icon, you can keep Shift key and select objects. After please Ctrl-C. Thought more theme, using Slide Master and press Ctr-V to paste objects. ^^! Very easy!
