Is there a way to make a text or object of a slide master be on top level of a child item?
Use the footer to put text on the slide master and layouts. The master footer will sit on the slide; if you send the slide's other content to back, the footer text will sit above it.
You can insert an image on a master slide that is shown in front of everything else by inserting it as an ActiveX image control.
- If you are using PowerPoint 2010 or later, show the Developer ribbon group by going to File>Options>Customize Ribbon, and selecting Developer in the right-hand list.
- Open the Slide Master view.
- From the Developer ribbon tab, Controls group (or equivalent with older versions of PowerPoint), click on the Image control (looks like a mountain with the sun above it) and click on the slide to insert it.
- Right-click on the inserted image control and choose Properties to obtain its Properties dialog.
- Click on the
…
button on the Picture line and select the picture you want to show. - Optionally, modify PictureSizeMode to fmPictureSizeModeZoon so that the loaded image resizes to fit the control.
- Optionally, modify BorderStyle to remove the border, and BackStyle to make any part of the control not covered by the picture transparent.
- Drag the image control to the size and position that you want.
For text, you could do a similar thing using a label control instead of the image control.
