1. Make your own Swim Lanes
There’s a custom Layout so you can insert a “Swim Lanes” slide
The background is the last slide copied & pasted into the Master View
That way, you can insert shapes/connectors on a Swim Lanes slide without moving the lanes
You can put text on the Master View in the lanes for the roles (or just add text boxes)
Just drag a blank Swim Lanes slide into a different PowerPoint file…it’ll add to your Master style
Need more/less lanes?
Ungroup the image, then resize/rearrange the last slide (the Arrange button is your friend!)
Then, when you’ve got the right number/size:
Select everything (CTRL-A)
Group that (optional but recommended) then copy (CTRL-C…not optional)
Open the Slide Master from the View ribbon
Scroll down to the Swim Lane layout, delete what’s there, & paste in your new Swim Lanes
Exit Master View…your Swim Lanes layout now shows the right number/size
