Description Eyal Rozenberg 2024-11-23 18:34:42 UTC 
If I right-click the area of a slide in the main pane of my Impress window, I can choose "Change Slide Master..." and get a dialog for choosing a different master.

However - the same is not true when I right-click one, or multiple-selected, slides in the Slides Pane. There is just no such context-menu item - and there really shoud be. This is definitely something I need to do revatively frequently in multi-master slide decks.
