Attributes

Description

preserve (Preserve Slide Master)

Specifies whether the corresponding slide layout is deleted when all the slides that follow that layout are deleted. If this attribute is not specified then a value of false should be assumed by the generating application. This would mean that the slide would in fact be deleted if no slides within the presentation were related to it.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the W3C XML Schema boolean datatype.
