Once you have inserted an organization chart (org chart) within PowerPoint, you might need to change its layout. The “layout” means how the subordinate levels in the hierarchy branch out from top to bottom. Probably you want all subordinates flushed to the left, hanging to the right, or distributed evenly across a horizontal plane.

Area charts emphasize the magnitude of change over time, and can be used to draw attention to the total value across a trend. For example, data that represents profit over time can be plotted in an area chart to emphasize the total profit. By displaying the sum of the plotted values, an area chart also shows the relationship of parts to a whole.
