About This Feature
Overview

Key capabilities include:
- Converting multiple images into a smart graphic layout to reduce manual arrangement work.
- Browsing categorized smart graphic styles in one panel and applying a style to the selected images.

Overall Conclusion
WPS is well suited to slides that already contain multiple images and need a faster way to turn them into a structured presentation layout. Microsoft, Google, Notion, and Adobe also provide diagram or image-display tools, but their entry points and goals differ. If your main task is to convert selected slide images into a presentation-ready graphic layout in WPS Office, the WPS workflow is more direct.
