After you've typed the caption you can select all or part of it to format

In the example below the entire caption is set to centered and H2 (header size 2). And now the word American is highlighted and set to italic.

These styles apply to the entire caption: H1, H2, H3, left align, center align, right align.

These options only apply to the text you have selected: bold, italic, and link.

Important, using the link caption button only adds the link to the specific words you selected in the caption. If you want the entire slide to be linked you must use the Link button that appears by the Crop button.
