Which category of SmartArt would you look through in order to insert an organization chart?
Lesson 24: SmartArt Graphics Show /en/powerpoint2016/charts/content/ IntroductionSmartArt allows you to communicate information with graphics instead of just using text. There are a variety of styles to choose from, which you can use to illustrate different types of ideas. Watch the video below to learn more about working with SmartArt. To insert a SmartArt graphic:
You can also click the Insert a SmartArt Graphic command in a placeholder to add SmartArt. To add text to a SmartArt graphic:
You can also add text by clicking the desired shape and then typing. This works well if you only need to add text to a few shapes. However, for more complex SmartArt graphics, working in the text pane is often quicker and easier. To reorder, add, and delete shapes:It's easy to add new shapes, change their order, and even delete shapes from your SmartArt graphic. You can do all of this in the text pane, and it's a lot like creating an outline with a multilevel list. For more information on multilevel lists, you may want to review our Lists lesson.
Organizing SmartArt from the Design tabIf you'd prefer not to use the text pane to organize your SmartArt, you can use the commands on the Design tab in the Create Graphic group. Just select the shape you want to modify, then choose the desired command.
In our example, we've been organizing a graphic with a hierarchical layout. Not all SmartArt graphics use this type of layout, so remember that these commands may work differently (or not at all) depending on the layout of your graphic. Customizing SmartArtAfter inserting SmartArt, there are several things you might want to change about its appearance. Whenever you select a SmartArt graphic, the Design and Format tabs will appear on the right side of the Ribbon. From there, it's easy to edit the style and layout of a SmartArt graphic.
To change the SmartArt layout:If you don't like the way your information is organized within a SmartArt graphic, you can always change its layout to better fit your content.
If the new layout is too different from the original, some of your text may not appear. Before deciding on a new layout, check carefully to make sure no important information will be lost. Challenge!
