How To Format Shapes in MS Excel
Now we'll see that how we can format shapes in MS Excel.
If we want to insert anything then we have INSERT tab in menu bar, which can be viewed differently according to everyone's screen resolution, but in that tab we can see a particular option for shapes. When we click that we can see different types of shapes such as basic shapes, block arrows, equation shapes, flowchart etc...
Now suppose if you want to insert and rectangle, so we select the rectangle option from Shapes column, and as soon as we select any option we can see that our mouse pointer has been changed to '+' like sign, which is when dragged will give our selected shape.
After inserting the required shape, we can also change the style of that shape. Additionally we can also write something in our shape, and then align it as per our requirement from home tab.
Similarly in INSERT tab we have an another option which is known as 'SMART ART'. It is used to insert any organizational flow chart or hierarchical chart. As soon as we select our preferred art according to our requirement we can see that it will be displayed on our screen and on their left side there will be a small dot which is used to write data in chart.
Suppose if you want to add another shape linked with the shape which we used we can do that by right clicking on our main shape and selecting our required option from 'Add shape' option.
