Learn PowerPoint 2013 for Windows: Text Box Autofit Options

Have you seen that PowerPoint automatically reduces the size of your text when you type in too much text? Or does the text box itself increase in size when you type in a sentence or two more than what can fit into the text box? Does this automatic hand-holding by PowerPoint drive you crazy and want to hit your head on the wall? Well, you really don’t have to worry because you can make PowerPoint behave itself — and bend it to your will.

Learn PowerPoint 2013 for Windows: Reposition Text Boxes Accurately on a Slide

Sometimes you want your text box to be placed in an exact position on your slide. Yes, you can select a text box and move it around by dragging it with your mouse, and then let it go wherever you want it placed. However, for all practical reasons this process is just visual and not accurate enough. Thankfully, PowerPoint provides a way to accurately position any text box just where you want it located.

Learn how to reposition your text boxes accurately on a slide in PowerPoint 2013 for Windows.

Learn PowerPoint 2013 for Windows: Move Text Boxes on a Slide

This tutorial is about moving text boxes rather than text placeholders. Typically text placeholders for regular text content or even slide titles are located in the same position on successive slides — so if you really do need to move a text placeholder, do it within the Slide Master so that this change of position happens on all slides, providing a consistent look to your presentation. This will also prevent you from repeatedly moving the placeholders on each and every slide on your presentation.
