3. Choose a distribution option.
o For Vertical distribution, the boundaries are defined by the top and bottom shapes
in the selection.
o For Horizontal distribution, the boundaries are defined by the leftmost and
rightmost shapes in the selection.
Tips: The distribute box is the minimal bounding box of the shapes. The Distribute command may be
ineffective for connector shapes. When shapes are selected, the selection handles will appear.
Group and Ungroup
To group shapes, select the shapes you want to group, go to Arrange group on Home tab, point to
Group, and then click Group (or press Ctrl + Shift + G).
To ungroup shapes, select the group, go to Arrange group on Home tab, point to Group, and then
click Ungroup (or press Ctrl +Shift +U).

Inserting Text in a Shape:

On Home tab, click Text to choose Text Block Adjust Tool and then click the shape to select the text
block. If the text is in a group, click to select the group, and then click to select the text block.

To rotate the text block, drag the rotation handle in the text block. When the
cursor is over the rotation handle, it will become a round arrow.

To move the text block, place the cursor over the text block and when it
becomes a four-headed arrow, you can drag the text block to anywhere.

To resize the text block, drag a selection handle until the text block is in the
desired size.

To delete the text block, just select it and press Delete.
