Reduce vertical space between two titles in Powerpoint slide

[ghosh]

proc template; 
	define style styles.mystyle; 
	parent=styles.powerpointlight;
	class SystemTitle /    fontsize=24pt textalign=left  ;
	class SystemTitle2 /    fontsize=12pt textalign=right ;
	end; 
run;

I would like to reduce the vertical space between the two titles in my Powerpoint slide which I am generating  with ODS Gridded layout using this modified style template.

I have tried various options that EG shows while editing the code, none of which works.  I would appreciate any suggestions

Thanks.

You should provide a small example data set and some of the code or perhaps use a SAS supplied data set like SASHELP.CLASS and a procedure like print to create some output, including all of your ODS Powerpoint options to demonstrate the behavior and so we have something we can test options with.

Then indicate specifically which text has too much space.

No promises about "fixing" this but this is the minimum information needed to have a chance.

There can be a largish number of things interacting when creating an ODS document and without all of the options you may be using it can be difficult to make suggestions. And blind guesses waste a lot of time.
