... Just as the subject says As Bob says, draw two lines. PPT doesn't offer trimming tools like those in Illustrator. Or maybe there's more to the question? -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com |

But how can I divide a line into seven or more parts with the same length? Thank you for your answer anyway. "Bob I" wrote: Draw 2 lines. Samara wrote: Just as the subject says |

I believe that Bob's point is that Powerpoint isn't that sophisticated. You
must create separate lines. As a helper, you can copy the first line six times to make seven equal lines. If your line is on a plain background, you could create six boxes with that same background color to layer on top of the line at equal intervals, to give the impression of division. -- Susan Ramlet MVP - Office Please reply to the newsgroups where others may benefit.

Or select the line, copy, and paste. You can then use Draw/Align to get them in the right place. -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com |
