You can manipulate and reshape the points and contours of a shape you’ve already placed on your slide canvas. Before you can edit a shape in this way, you need to make it editable.
-
To make a predrawn shape editable, select the shape and then choose Format > Shape > Make Editable.
Red points appear on the shape. Drag the points to edit the shape. Later, to edit a predrawn shape that has been made editable, click it once to select it, and then click it again to make it editable.
-
To make a custom shape editable, click once in the shape to select it, and then click a second time to show its editing points.
To learn the details of manipulating the points and contours of a shape after you’ve made it editable, see the relevant topics.
To learn about editing specific predrawn shapes, see the sections about each shape.
To learn about manipulating and aligning shapes, and changing their general object properties, such as color, border style (stroke), size, orientation, shadows, and more, see the topics under About Manipulating, Arranging, and Changing the Look of Objects.
