Precise Rotation

Is there a more precise way to go about rotating an object? Using the green rotate handle means I have to guess as I drag.

RE: Precise Rotation

Answer to the question:

A quick way of ensuring a more precise method of rotation; Hold down the SHIFT key whilst you rotate the object using the 'green' rotate handle, this will ensure that it rotates in 15 degree clicks.
If however you want to be even more precise in your rotation, then you should use the Format Picture dialog box; (Select the Graphic, Right click and from the shortcut menu choose Format Picture).
In the Dialog box choose the Size tab and enter the exact number of degrees you wish to rotate in the Rotation text box.

 

Powerpoint tip:

Grouping objects

Sometimes you may want to move images, clipart, text boxes around your slide.

To effectively do this so they stay together you can group objects,

1)Highlight all the objects, by either dragging around the objects or holding down the CONTROL key and selecting the objects

2)Right clcik and select group.

No when you move one object the others will move with it.

You can remove the grouping by right clicking on the object and ungrouping.
