A useful feature of the LibreOffice suite is that the Writer and Impress products are fully integrated and have the same interface. When you select File → Open, you get to chose if you will create a text file or a presentation file.  Hence most functions explained  for LibreOffice Writer can be used in the same manner in LibreOffice Impress, including  entering text, formatting text, inserting a numbered list and inserting a text box (image 36).

You can change the background and line colours in the text boxes in your slides. To change the background colour, select Format → Style → Edit Style → Area.
