Formatting a SmartArt Graphic
If your current SmartArt graphics don’t quite convey the message or look you want, you can change layouts by using the SmartArt Graphic Quick Styles (New!) on the Elements Gallery and selecting layout variations on the Styles tab (New!). If you only want to change the color, you can choose different color schemes using theme colors by using the Colors tab (New!). In addition to modifying shapes, you can also use familiar commands on the Font, and Alignment and Spacing panes on the Formatting Palette tab to format the text in a SmartArt graphic.
