Public API and Backwards Incompatible Changes
ChangeMaster(Aspose.Slides.Slide master, System.Boolean changeStyle, System.Boolean placeholderRelayouting) method has been added to Slide class
This method allows keeping placeholders� layout when master slide is changed. Shapes keep size and position when the placeholderRelayouting parameter is �false� otherwise shapes are updated according to new master slide layout.

// presentation with the first placeholders layout
Presentation p1 = new Presentation("Presentation1.ppt");
// presetnation with the second placeholders layout
Presentation p2 = new Presentation("Presentation2.ppt");
p2.Slides.Remove(p2.GetSlideByPosition(1));
SortedList list = new SortedList();
p1.CloneSlide(p1.GetSlideByPosition(1), p2.Slides.LastSlidePosition + 1, p2, list);
p1.CloneSlide(p1.GetSlideByPosition(1), p2.Slides.LastSlidePosition + 1, p2, list);
// slide from the first presentation and with the second placeholders layout (default behavior)
p2.GetSlideByPosition(1).ChangeMaster(p2.MainMaster, true);
// slide form the first presentation and with the first placeholder layout (new behavior)
p2.GetSlideByPosition(2).ChangeMaster(p2.MainMaster, true, false);
p2.Save("out.ppt", SaveFormat.Ppt);
