Manage the selected objects

If multiple objects are selected on the slide, the commands you execute are applied:

•To all selected objects: If the command refers to the properties of each object from the selected objects. For example: If a shape, an image, and a table are selected on a slide, clicking the  Cell background color button will apply fill settings to each selected object.

•To one object from the selected objects: If the command refers to the properties of one object. For example: If a line, a shape, and a table are selected on the slide, clicking on the  Insert row above button will add a row only to the selected table.

The following limitations apply to this version:

•When you select multiple objects that include a table, you cannot specify the exact size of cells in the table, merge cells, or delete individual columns or rows.

•You cannot enter text from the keyboard into multiple selected objects simultaneously.

Common tools for working with multiple selected objects are located in the Control bar:

• Fill "f_xo_text"> Fill a shape, table cells, image with color or image.

• Shape outline: Define the line style; define the color, type and thickness of the outer borders of the table, shape outline and image.

• Delete selected objects: The button changes its appearance depending on the type of objects selected on the slide. It is designed to delete all the selected objects at the same time.

You can perform the following actions with all selected objects at the same time:

•Move

•Resize

•Change the position

•Copy, cut and paste.

To do this, perform the corresponding actions for any object from the selected ones.

To sequentially edit and format the contents of each object in the selection, move between objects using the keyboard keys ←, →, ↑ and ↓, by holding the Ctrl ( Cmd) key pressed. Moving between objects is performed from left to right, top to bottom. The overall selection of objects is automatically reset.
