I'm trying to make an org chart using the smart art-heirarchy-org chart
option. Problem is, as I add shapes below, all of the shapes above get
smaller and smaller. When I try to make them bigger one at a time to a size
where the text is legible, all of the boxes resize accordingly, any way to
turn this off so I can resize and place boxes individually?

I think if you specify a font size, it will quit resizing automatically.

I tried that, it resizes anyway. Thanks though.

I'm sorry. I should have checked it before posting.
