--- Comment #15 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
"Presentation Styles" are styles, which are only available in Impress, whereas
"Drawing Styles" are available in Draw too and hopefully soon in Calc and
Writer. So you should read "Presentation Styles" as "Styles which are used in
presentations for objects which are specific for presentations". And "Drawing
Styles" are "Styles for all kind of drawing objects, regardless whether they
are used in Impress or Draw".

"Presentation Styles" are connected to a master page. If you change such style,
when you are not in master view, the master page of the current page is
affected.

Some of these styles are bound to certain objects of the master page. These are
"Title", "Subtitle" and the "Outline"-styles. The "Background objects" style is
used for all other objects on a master page. Footer, Date/Time and Page number
fields belong to this group too, but you will notice it only if you remove the
direct formatting which they have got as default.
The "Background" is for the background of the master page. "Notes" is for the
object, were you enter your notes to a slide.

"Title", "Subtitle", "Outline" and "Notes" are not simple drawing objects, but
they have a placeholder feature.

When you examine these objects with the Development Tools and look at their
ShapeType, you will see, that they are of kind com.sun.star.presentation,
whereas other objects are of kind com.sun.star.drawing.

So for me "Presentation Styles" is a correct short label. If a little bit
longer text is possible, then "presentation specific styles" might work.
