FAQ
Why do multiple pictures align in a way that does not match what I expected?
- Check the current alignment reference first.
- If you want alignment based on the slide boundary, choose Relative to Slide.
- If you want alignment based on one specific picture, switch to the last selected object option and confirm that the final selected picture is correct.
- Run the alignment command again.
Why can’t I find the Align button?
- Make sure a picture is selected.
- After selecting a picture, check the Picture Tools tab.
- If you still do not see it there, open the Home tab and look for Align under Arrange.
Why does Distribute Horizontally or Distribute Vertically not change much?
- Confirm that multiple pictures are selected.
- Try selecting at least three pictures.
- Perform a basic alignment first, then use horizontal or vertical distribution.
- Check whether the pictures were already spaced almost evenly.
What is the difference between Same Height, Same Width, and Same Size?
- Same Height makes all selected pictures share one height.
- Same Width makes all selected pictures share one width.
- Same Size makes the selected pictures share the same overall dimensions.
- Choose the command that fits your slide layout.
How can I adjust picture placement more precisely?
