Just changed the name to better reflect what it does. I will be uploading another micro that does a slightly different task (operates on all images in a section).

Love this macro, just recently I found out, it changes the colour of my pen writings to black. I don't understand why, since the macro is so nicely simply written.

Is there a macro that will work after I write? i often have to edit slides or switch the order during a lecture.

Love the idea behind this macro!  For me though, when I use it...it only sets an image as background if the image is not inside a "text box"  -- also, it changes the Title font to gray, if the title font is white.  Is anyone else seeing this?  I'm running Win 10 & OneNote 2016.
