Overview:


Some of the coolest improvements in PowerPoint 2007 are related to the overhaul of its diagramming features, which now let you add much more than detailed diagrams and organization charts to presentations. Collectively, all the diagrams available in PowerPoint are now called SmartArt. Learn how to use SmartArt to enhance the effectiveness of your PowerPoint presentations in this sample chapter from Special Edition Using Microsoft Office Powerpoint 2007. Not only does SmartArt help you create a more polished, professional impression with your presentation, but it also lets you visually represent a variety of concepts and ideas that might not work as well with just text. Some of the tricks you can now do with SmartArt include:

  • Show all sorts of relationships using diagrams
  • Change between SmartArt graphic types so that you can determine which SmartArt variant works for you
  • Change the colors and effects of your SmartArt graphic so that they use the same Theme Colors as your presentation
  • Customize the look of the SmartArt graphic further by editing individual shape elements contained within the SmartArt
