No longer do you have to rely on rotating objects by eye, under- or over-shooting and consequently eating your laptop in frustration. Similar to the resizing tools, the Rotate options allow for more specific object rotations. The new Position tool makes it much easier to choose where an object should be positioned on the slide (centre, top left, etc.). You can also lock aspect ratios so that your object can resize without being warped or stretched. You can now adjust percentages and dimensions directly by typing new values into the provided input fields. The new Size options enable more accurate resizing of objects. These hugely underrated features can be accessed by right clicking an object, selecting Format options and then clicking Size & Position (see GIF below). New tools for resizing and positioning objects make adjusting text boxes, shapes and images much easier. Updates from Google can be easy to miss, so check their blog to keep up to date with the latest additions. We’ve taken a look and written up a general overview of what’s new, so you can make the most of these new features and get the best out of Google Slides. Although Slides still has some work to do to up its overall functionality, Google has recently introduced some long-anticipated upgrades to basic features, and some entirely new tools, too. Since launching in 2006, Google Slides has steadily upped its game year on year to become a strong online alternative to other, more established, presentation software.
