Please put your question in the big white box below the subjectline, thanks! Is it a line you did draw from the shapes in Powerpoint? Than doubleclick it and look at the tab "size". Another method to measure something is with the drawing guides: - right click on the slide and chose "Grid and Guides" - active "Display drawing guides on screen" - drag the guide to the beginning of your line - press the Shift-key, hold it down and drag the guide to the end of the line - take a pencil and write down the figure you see... yes, that is a bit difficult when pressing Shift with the left hand and holding down the mousekey with the right hand.... maybe it's easier to learn the figure by heart. -- Mit vielen Grüßen Pia Bork MVP PowerPoint http://www.ppt-faq.de "roger from alice springs" <roger from alice springs@discussions.microsoft.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:174EEB0F-CE36-4E83-9F19-4BBDF0150CEF@microsoft.com... >
