Making a Style for All Aspect Ratios

If you want to make a style that works well with both 16:9 and 4:3 aspect
ratios you’re going to need to consider image spacing and arrangement.
Take a look at which styles come with ProShow that work for any aspect
ratio. These styles are mostly single image enhancements or motion-based
effects. Using a smaller group of images and keeping those images close to
the center of the slide frame will work best for either aspect ratio.

You start to get into trouble when you have images or captions placed
around the outer edges of the slide frame. So long as you avoid that you’re
probably going to have a style that works well on both. Just remember to
test your style on both to make sure that’s the case.

If you’ve created a style that should work for all aspect ratios, remember to
check the Aspect Ratio checkbox when creating your style.
