Resize Multiple Widgets Together

Updated 

Overview

We are introducing a powerful enhancement that allows users to select, move, and resize multiple widgets simultaneously, greatly improving the efficiency and flexibility of the design process. With this multi-selection capability, users can now structure and align elements on a slide with greater control and speed, making it much easier to manage complex storyboards or presentations. This improvement directly addresses a key limitation in the earlier setup, where users could only adjust widgets one at a time.

Key Capabilities

Step 1: Open Storyboard/Slide for Editing 

  • Navigate to the desired presentation or storyboard.

  • Click Edit on the specific slide where widget adjustments are needed.

 

Step 2: Select Multiple Widgets 

There are two ways to select multiple widgets: 

  1. Click + Cmd/Ctrl: Hold Cmd (Mac) or Ctrl (Windows) and click each widget individually.

  2. Drag-to-Select: Click and drag on an empty canvas area to draw a selection box around widgets.

 

Step 3: Resize Widgets as a Group 

  • Use the corner or side handles on the selection box to resize all selected widgets together.

  • Resize happens proportionally or in the direction dragged.

 

Step 4: Move Grouped Widgets 

  • Click inside the selected group and drag to reposition all selected widgets on the canvas.

  • Widgets maintain their relative spacing during the move.

 

Step 5: Align and Structure as Needed 

  • Use Snap-to-Grid or guides (if enabled) for aligning widgets.

  • Group selection helps in restructuring sections or themes easily within the slide.
