How do you center an object horizontally in PowerPoint?

To center an object horizontally, select the object, go to the 'Shape Format' tab, and choose 'Align' followed by 'Align Center'. This will position the object in the middle of the slide horizontally.

What does the 'Align Middle' option do in PowerPoint?

'Align Middle' aligns objects vertically to the center of the slide. This option is useful when you want to ensure objects are evenly placed in the middle from top to bottom.

How can you make objects evenly spaced between each other in PowerPoint?

To make objects evenly spaced, you can select all the objects, go to the 'Shape Format' tab, click 'Align', and then choose either 'Distribute Horizontally' or 'Distribute Vertically' depending on the orientation you need.

What is the purpose of the 'Send to Back' and 'Bring to Front' options?

'Send to Back' moves an object behind all other objects, while 'Bring to Front' brings it to the very front. These options help control the layering order of objects in PowerPoint slides.

How do you group objects in PowerPoint?

To group objects, select all the objects you want to group, right-click, and choose 'Group' then 'Group' again. You can also use the shortcut 'Ctrl + G' to group the objects.

Yes, you can ungroup objects. Simply right-click on the grouped object, select 'Group', and then choose 'Ungroup'. Alternatively, use the shortcut 'Ctrl + Shift + G'.

What is the 'Selection Pane' in PowerPoint?

The 'Selection Pane' allows you to manage the visibility, order, and properties of objects on a slide. It lets you hide, show, lock, or reorder objects without directly interacting with them on the slide.

How can you hide an object using the Selection Pane?

To hide an object, open the Selection Pane ('Home' > 'Select' > 'Selection Pane'), find the object in the list, and click the eye icon next to it. This will make the object invisible on the slide.

What is the function of the 'Lock' icon in the Selection Pane?

The 'Lock' icon in the Selection Pane prevents an object from being moved or edited. Clicking the lock icon will 'lock' the object, making it unmovable unless you unlock it by clicking the icon again.
