Can you format-paint paragraph formatting?
The format painter in Powerpoint doesn't seem to work the same way it does in Word as far as paragraph formatting is concerned.

Re: Can you format-paint paragraph formatting?
Make sure that you select an entire paragraph, including the invisible paragraph marker, before clicking the Format Painter.
In picture 1 in the screenshot below, only the text has been selected, not the paragraph marker. Using the Format Painter will NOT copy paragraph formatting.
In picture 2, the text AND the invisible paragraph marker have been selected. Using the Format Painter will copy paragraph formatting.
