Alignment
|
| |
In 'The Brainstorming Process'
sample, pages 2, 3 and 4 all contain imported images and text
and are aligned in different ways.
Alignment is always a matter of personal choice but there are
some aids in NotateIt
that can help you.
The cursor co-ordinates are shown in the status bar at the
bottom of the screen. If your image or text is selected,
those co-ordinates are shown as well.
This means that you can drag objects to specific points
in your working area or 'nudge' them with the cursor keys
for precise alignment.
 |
The 'snap to grid' facility is also another useful tool for alignment.
You can turn this on and off from
Page | Snap to Grid
or use the toolbar button.
(Professional Edition only)
|
 |
As well as 'snapping to grid', you can create
custom grid and line settings and change the 'snap' intervals.
Go to
Page | Grid/Line Settings.
(Professional Edition only)
|
If you're displaying grid points or lines to help with alignment,
they will appear in a printed copy
of your presentation and they will show up in
Presentation Mode. You'll need to remember to
turn the grid/lines off before the final viewing.
Inserting a temporary
background is another way of assisting alignment.
When your layout is complete,
revert to your original background for that page.
