You want to use the colors you have already used to respect the graphic charter, but do not have the hexadecimal codes in mind? No problem, just use the eyedropper! Let's see together how to use the eyedropper in Microsoft PowerPoint.

 

Step 1: Select the item(s) you want to edit

 

First, you need to select the element or elements whose color you want to change.

To do this, just click on it! To select multiple items at once, press the Ctrl button on your keyboard as you click.
