How to generate a chart?
Method 1: Automatically create charts via AI
- When you use Smallppt to generate a presentation, AI will automatically recognize the information structure based on your content and generate charts when needed.
- These charts will:
- • Automatically match the visual style of the current template
- • Automatically adapts to the layout and content arrangement, generally requiring no additional adjustment of position or size after generation.
Method 2: Manually insert a chart
Step 1: Open the Insert Chart panel
Open the presentation editing page and find the Insert panel on the right.
Step 2: Select a Preset Chart
Click on the chart and select one from 8 basic chart types (such as bar chart, line chart, pie chart, etc.).
