Resizing objects
Follow these steps to learn how to resize objects:
- Select the object to resize by clicking on it.
- Place your left mouse pointer on the sizing handle. Hold down the left mouse button and drag toward the center of the image to make it smaller and to keep the proportion of the image intact. Alternatively, drag outward to make the object bigger. The ribbon is another method that can be used if you wish to enter specific widths and heights for objects.
- Select the object by clicking on it.
- Notice that the Drawing Tools or Picture Tools Format tab is now visible, depending on the object type (picture, shape, or chart) that you are resizing.
- Locate the Size group and enter the width and height measurements as desired. The object will adjust on the slide as you enter the new measurements.
- To access even further Layout options, click on the Size dialog box launcher on the Format tab of the ribbon. The dialog box will present itself:
Take note of the Lock aspect ratio checkbox. This is very important if the objects height and width settings must change in relation to one another and not separately.
