You can resize an item on a slide by using its resizing handles. When you resize items such as images and text titles, they keep their aspect ratio. Paragraph texts and certain shapes can be resized more freely, both horizontally and vertically.
Snapshots can be resized in two different ways: locked, so keeping the aspect ratio, or unlocked, for free resizing, which also causes the snapshot to use progressive disclosure.
Resizing in general
Do the following:
-
In storytelling view, click on the item you want to resize.
-
Drag one of the resizing handles to resize the item.
- Release the resizing handle.
The item is resized.
Unlocking a snapshot for free resize
The default resize behavior is keeping the aspect ratio. You can unlock the snapshot for free resizing.
Do the following:
- In storytelling view, click on the snapshot you want to resize.
- Click at the top right.
The snapshot can now be resized more freely, using progressive disclosure.
Locking a snapshot to keep the aspect ratio
After you have resized your snapshot to the size you like and displayed the amount of information you want, you can lock your snapshot to keep its aspect ratio.
Do the following:
- In storytelling view, click on the snapshot you want to lock.
- Click at the top right.
The snapshot is now locked to keep the aspect ratio when resizing it.
