Styles as a Training Tool

Slide styles make an excellent training tool for you if you’re still learning
how features work in ProShow. Try applying any style and then looking
through the various options for the layers in the style.

You’ll see how each setting was configured as well as all of the other details
about what makes that effect work. Taking a look at styles is a great way to
learn the program by reverse engineering how each effect was put
together. Never underestimate the training value of looking at the work of
others.

Preserving Styles

At some point you may update to a new version or ProShow, or uninstall
ProShow. You can rest assured knowing that updating to a new version or
uninstalling the program will not delete the styles in your library. Feel free
to do either as often as you want.

If you need to completely reinstall Windows or format the PC, however, you
will lose your styles unless you back them up. Use the Export tool to save
all of your styles as PXS files and save them in a safe place. Once you have
reloaded your system, or moved to a new one, use the Import tool in
ProShow to bring all your saved styles back into the library.
