hi there Powepoint users!:

I want to copy a graph from Excel into Powerpoint. Now the copying itself is
no problem, but I want to have some control over the graph's length and width
when I paste it (i.e. I do not want to constantly adjust the size manually in
Powerpoint once it has been pasted).

This problem becomes even more obvious when I add a text box to my excel
graph (e.g. for the title of a graph), because when you group the graph and
the 'title' text box, and then copy/paste into Powerpoint, both shapes have
totally different sizes!

Does anyone know how to play with these sizes?

Thank you!!
 
In powerpoint select a layout with content placeholders eg Title , text and
content. Resize a content placehoder to the size required and select it
before pasting. You can of course make duplicate slides if you have lots of
charts to paste

Did that answer the question / help?
