FAQ
Why is the Align button grayed out?
- Make sure the presentation is currently in editing mode.
- Check whether the target objects are selected.
- If only one object or non-editable content is selected, reselect editable objects and try again.
Why do I not see an obvious change after alignment?
- Check whether the selected objects were already close to the current alignment state.
- Try another alignment option and compare the slide again.
- If you need finer control, open More Settings to review the preview and apply a revised result.
How do I undo an alignment action?
- Use the common Mac undo shortcut
⌘+Zright away. - Or click Undo on the toolbar to return to the previous step.
- Confirm that the objects are back in their earlier positions.
When should I use Advanced Settings?
