I created one main org chart with CEO down to 3 operational silos. I created a second org chart that I want to place to the right that are all cross company functions reporting up to the same CEO. How can I merge 2 org charts into one while maintaining my formatting OR how can I link my second org chart to the CEO of my original org chart?

Merging 2 org charts into one
Best answer by Eric R
Hi
The easiest way to achieve this is with the following steps
- Select all shapes in org chart 1 and copy them (make sure to select the individual shapes and not the org chart container).
- Enter org chart 2 and select the employee you wish all employees from org chart 1 to be under,
- Paste the copied shapes.

Hello,
I tried to do this, and it didn’t work. Whenever I choose the individual items from org chart 1 (not the org chart container itself) and then copy/paste them into the other org chart 2, it just pastes another copy of org chart 1 as an org chart container that isn’t embedded within org chart 2. Is there some other way I should be doing this?
Edit from my previous post (on 2/6/2025):
I realized that I had to move both of the org charts down to the original page. They were both on a layer, which didn’t allow me to recognize them outside of their org chart containers for some reason. Once I moved the two org charts off the layer and onto the original page, I was able to merge them.
I do have a follow up question to this:
When I pasted Org 2 into Org 1, the data fields I had for Org 2 were removed as I assume Org 1’s data fields took precedent. Is there a way to maintain the data elements from the original Org 2, even after I have merged it into Org 1?
