Adding Images to Templates

There are many ways to add images to your Template. One of the easiest is
to just drag & drop like you would with any other image. Rather than
dropping the images into the Slide List to make a new slide, just drop those
images right on to a Template layer that appears in the thumbnail. The
image will get placed right into that layer.

Let’s cover all the ways you can add images to a Template:

• Drag & drop images directly from the File List onto Template
Layers in the Slide List

OR

• Right-click on an image in the File List and choose Add Files to
Placeholders from the sub-menu.

OR

1. Click on Show in the Menu Bar.
2. Click on the Add Selected Files to Placeholders option.

OR

1. Open the Slide Options for a slide which contains a Template
Layer to which you want to add an image.

2. In the Layers List, select any placeholder layer that says "<No
Image> Empty"

3. Right-click on the layer and choose Select File from the menu
that appears.

Any of these methods will let you add an image to your Template. You can
also add a group of images to a Template by selecting multiple images in
the File List, right-clicking, and selecting Add Files to Placeholders.

Note: you can also add video files to a Template using these same
methods. Remember that video files are able to be used in layers just as
images are.
