This will help align objects at the top and bottom. You need to have at least two objects on the slide. To space out your objects, select one and drag it until a red double-arrow line appears—this indicates that your object has been evenly spaced out. You need to have at least three objects on a slide. To resize all objects at once, hold Shift and select all objects. Select a placeholder corner to slide, shrink, or enlarge your objects collectively.
