Format Multiple Items

Select multiple items to apply formatting changes from the Component ribbon. This way, you can apply identical formatting changes to multiple content items simultaneously, rather than one-by-one.

The size and rotation can be set simultaneously for multi-selections of any content type. The remaining format types can only be applied to multi-selections of a single content item type.

For instance, size and position can be set for a selection including discoveries, slicers, shapes, and textboxes (as in the image above). But text formatting (changes to font type, font size, header style, etc) can only be applied to a selection that includes textboxes only (as in the image below).
