Positioning
Here's how to control the exact location of the elements on your slides:
- You can open the positioning controls by clicking the View menu and selecting the "Transform Toolbox" option ("Transform" means 'control the exact position and size of' in SlideRocket).
- Once the Transform Tool box opens, simply select a slide element and you can control its X and Y position (top and left edges of the element in relation to the top left corner of the slide), its width, and its height. All measurements are in pixels. You can also rotate the item.
- Click the Align tab to access additional controls for alignment and distribution of multiple objects on your slide.
- The Align options are:
- Align Lefts: Aligns the left edges of all selected slide elements.
- Align Centers: Aligns the horizontal middle points of all selected slide elements.
- Align Rights: Aligns the right edges of all selected slide elements.
- Align Tops: Aligns the top edges of all selected slide elements.
- Align Middles: Aligns the vertical middle points of all selected slide elements.
- Align Bottoms: Aligns the bottom edges of all selected slide elements.
- The Distribute options are:
- Distribute Horizontally: Positions all selected slide elements so that the horizontal middle points are equidistant from each other.
- Distribute Vertically: Positions all selected slide elements so that the horizontal middle points are equidistant from each other.
- Click the close box (the little x in a circle) at the top right of the Transform Toolbox to put it away when you are finished.
