Instead of copying the actual visual element, the format properties can be copied and pasted to another visual element.
Copying and pasting formats can be used with shapes, images, widgets, and text fields, but not with visualizations (bar charts, pie charts, scatterplots, tables, etc.).
Copy the format of the visual element by selecting it, then clicking the copy format paint brush icon (3rd icon) in the upper right corner of the slide.
The copied format can be pasted to another visual element on the same slide or to a different slide.
This example will paste the format to an element on a different slide.
Navigate to the destination slide and select the element to paste the format to.
Then click the paste format icon (the paint brush on the right).
