CopyC#
// Create a new SlideTitle and set properties for its appearance
SlideTitle slideTitle = new SlideTitle()
{
  Text = "My Slide Title",
  Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 50, FontStyle.Bold),
  TextColor = Color.Yellow,
  BackColor = Color.Black,
  OutlineColor = Color.Orange,
  Outline = 4,
  Transparency = 40,
  DisplayPosition = DisplayPosition.TopRight
};

// Set the Presentation's SlideTitle to be the new slide title
ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.Application.Presentation.SlideTitle = slideTitle;

// Capture a new slide and add it to the Presentation's slide collection
Slide newSlide = ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.Application.Presentation.CaptureSlide();
ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.Application.Presentation.Slides.Add(newSlide);
CopyVB.NET
' Create a new SlideTitle and set properties for its appearance
Dim slideTitle As New SlideTitle
With slideTitle
  .Text = "My Slide Title"
  .Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 50, FontStyle.Bold)
  .TextColor = Color.Yellow
  .BackColor = Color.Black
  .OutlineColor = Color.Orange
  .Outline = 4
  .Transparency = 40

End With

ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.Application.Presentation.SlideTitle = slideTitle

' Capture a new slide and add it to the Presentation's slide collection
Dim newSlide As Slide = ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.Application.Presentation.CaptureSlide()
ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.Application.Presentation.Slides.Add(newSlide)
