If you did manage to find another technique that is easier on PowerPoint, I will be happy to feature another tutorial and give full credit to you.I just want to add a shadow to the shapes that I am creating while using python-pptx. The method I have posted is the only method I have found, till now, that works on a consistent basis. These methods were simply inconsistent because the vector designs vary considerably. I’ve tried the methods such as moving the icon to the bottom right and fragmenting a shape in between to snap to the icon. Just keep in mind that PowerPoint, although functional, is limited. You might have done this before on a different piece of software such as Photoshop, Illustrator or InkScape. P.S.: A NOTE TO ALL THE PROFESSIONAL DESIGNERS OUT THERE

But, once you get going and know exactly what to do, it’s really easy to do. I have to level with you, you may find some difficulty at the beginning.

In this post, we’re going to take PowerPoint design to the next level by adding icon shadow effects. I’ve even made a blog post explaining why right over here.

I’ve mentioned this so many times, and I’ll mention it again: icons are really important for your PowerPoint slides. In this tutorial, we’re going to discover how to add icon shadow effects to really make your icons pop on your PowerPoint slides.
