When designing slides, arrow patterns are common elements used to guide the audience to focus on key points. In order to help users create beautiful arrow patterns, PHP editor Xiaoxin will introduce its operation process in detail. The following content will guide you step by step, from selecting the shape tool to customizing the arrow style, covering all steps of using PPT to create arrow patterns.
Many times we need to express the process of an event or the steps of an operation. At this time, we can try the step arrow.
The picture above looks beautiful, but it is not complicated to actually make. Let’s implement it step by step. After starting PPT, switch to the [Insert] tab, click [Shape], and choose to draw a perfect circle. When drawing, you can hold down the Shift key.
Please draw an ordinary arrow and an isolinear arrow without a tail in this editor. Here, I first draw a normal arrow and an isolinear arrow without a tail, then bring them together, and merge them into a single shape through [Merge Shapes] under the [Drawing Tools-Format] tab. The final shape is a special arrowhead, consisting of a normal arrowhead and an isolinear arrowhead without a tail.
Combine the arrow and the previously drawn circle, and also combine them into a single shape through [Merge Shapes → Union].
Make some decorations. Draw another perfect circle, a little smaller than the center of the original circle, and overlap the two circles. Fill the circle drawn later with gray, and then in the [Drawing Tools-Format] tab, click [Shape Effect → Prism] and select a three-dimensional effect. Finally, mark the circle with a numerical sequence.
Copy this shape and paste two more, then set different fill colors for them and stack them together. After arranging the positions, modify the number in the middle.
Finally add a gradient background to the entire slide, then add [Image] reflection effects to the three arrow graphics produced, add text, etc., and you will get the example at the beginning of this article It works.
Three-dimensional arrow
Next, I will demonstrate a three-dimensional arrow making method, and let’s take a look at the effect first.
In order to generate a perspective effect, we need to make some line changes to the normally drawn rectangle. Draw a rectangle, rotate it at a certain angle, then right-click the rectangle and select [Edit Vertices]. At this time, you can drag the positions of the four vertices of the rectangle at will, and set the shape according to the perspective rules of near, far, and small.
Select all graphics, switch to the [Drawing Tools-Format] tab, and click the [Soft Circle] effect under [Shape Effect → Prism]. Right-click the graphic, select [Format Shape], open the settings pane on the right, and switch to the [Effect] item (pentagon icon). Set various parameters of the three-dimensional here, such as width, height, depth, etc. Then expand [Shadow] to set the three-dimensional projection effect.
Finally set the background of the entire slide, add other decorations, and add text content to get the effect picture shown above.
