Add a border or cast shadow to a slideshow image
To make photos in a slideshow stand out from the background, add a border or a cast shadow to each photo. Your
adjustments are displayed in the Slide Editor view.
1 In the Template Browser of the Slideshow module, select any template except Crop To Fill.
2 In the Options panel, do any of the following:
• To add a border, select Stroke Border. Click the color box on the right to open the color pop-up window and
specify a border color.
• To adjust the border width, either drag the Width slider or type a pixel value in the box to the right of the slider.
• To add a cast shadow, select Cast Shadow and use the controls to adjust it:
Opacity Sets the shadow's lightness or darkness.
Offset Sets the shadow's distance from the image.
Radius Sets the hardness or softness of the shadow's edge.
Angle Sets the direction of the drop shadow. Turn the knob or move the slider to adjust the shadow's angle.
Set the slide margins
The controls in the Layout panel of the Slideshow module set the margins that define the image cell in a slide template.
1 In the Template Browser, select any template except Crop To Fill and do any of the following in the Layout panel:
• To adjust all margins simultaneously and maintain their relative proportions, make sure the Link All box is
selected.
• To change the size of a margin independently of the other margins, deselect the link box next to the specific
margin.
2 Move one or more sliders in the Layout panel or drag the guides in the Slide Editor view.
