Chapter 10 – Customizing Presentations
Editing Other Zones
The settings in the Edit Zone window correspond to the type of zone you have selected. Here is a list of all the settings
you can edit for other types of zones:
• Images zone: Image mode.
• Clock zone: Rotation, foreground text color, background text color, transparency, font, background bitmap, and
safe text region.
• Background Image zone: You cannot click Zone Properties for a Background Image zone. Choose a
background image by selecting the Background Image Zone and dragging a file to the playlist area. If you only
want a background color (instead of an image), do not add a Background Image zone. The background screen
color can be changed in the Presentation Properties window. See Chapter 10 > Presentation Properties for
details.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat steps 2 – 4 for each zone you want to edit in your presentation.
Customizing Template Layouts
If the predefined zone template layouts do not meet your needs, you can create your own templates. Complete the
following steps:
1. Create a presentation project by clicking File > New Presentation and select a template that is most similar to the
layout you want to use.
2. Click Layout (below the Edit tab) and create a template by doing any of the following:
• Change the position of a zone by clicking the zone and dragging it to the desired position. Alternatively, you
can enter the Position information in the left side of the screen. X corresponds to the position on a
horizontal axis, and Y corresponds to the position on a vertical axis.
• Add a zone by clicking Add zone, typing a Zone name, selecting the Zone type, and then clicking OK.
