Adding a watermark to an Excel or PowerPoint chart/graph

How can you add a watermark to a chart so others know it is a draft or confidential chart? This video shows you how.

These videos are inspired by the work I do with business professionals to visually communicate financial results and analysis as well as the forum posts I answer from users on MrExcel.com.

In this video I show you how to create a custom watermark in PowerPoint, save it as an image file, and use it as the background in your chart.

In the video I am using Excel 365 on Windows 10, and most modern versions of Excel will look very similar. If you like the video, please subscribe to the channel and add a comment below.
