Similar to how you can change an individual shape within SmartArt, you can even resize shapes within a SmartArt graphic. This can be helpful if you want one shape to be larger than the others. Perhaps you want one shape to stand out? Whatever be the reason behind you wanting to resize these shapes, these tutorials will explore how you can resize individual shapes within a SmartArt graphic in PowerPoint.
To learn more, choose your version of PowerPoint. If we do not have a tutorial for your version of PowerPoint, explore the version closest to the one you use.

While it is easy to change proofing language for selected text containers, that happens to be a piece meal approach and can be a wonderful timewaster if you need the language changed across all content in a hundred or more slides! There are two ways to set the proofing language for your entire presentation, and you can use one or both approaches. Make sure you have the proofing tools installed for all or any of the languages that you need to work within PowerPoint.

We already looked at getting started with the Morph transition in PowerPoint. In this next tutorial of the Morph transition series, we will look at using the Curve line tool to create some drawings. These drawings can be duplicated on subsequent slides and edited slightly in each slide. The results can differ depending upon what you draw. While it will be great if you have artistic skills to draw within PowerPoint, it doesn’t matter if you cannot draw. We will also provide a sample presentation and video walkthrough to help.
