Smile Resizing shapes in an organisational chart

Hi there,

Someone has created a company hierachy organisational chart and I am trying to alter it. I have no problems adding extra shapes onto it, the problem is, i can't re-size them. When i double click on a shape the size tab is greyed out. It's just the chart on this particular slide which this is occurring on, the size tab is available in all the other charts in the presentation.
Did someone create the chart incorrectly?

Default Resizing shapes in an organisational chart

Hi,

I had this today. Look for Autolayout on the org chart toolbar and turn it
off. With it on, it wont let you touch the settings.
