SmartArt graphics are easily inserted infographics that typically place common PowerPoint shapes in relation to each other to create a strong message. You can of course change those individual shapes within SmartArt, as in changing a square to a circle or anything else — but what many users don’t realize is that you can do much more. You can actually move some shapes around within the SmartArt graphic if you want — this sort of creative freedom lets you adapt existing SmartArt layouts to your liking to create something new.
