When you first start a new project, you will be prompted to select images to import into your album. This can be done at any time, but you will need to import at least one photo initially. Once you’ve started your project you'll see all of the images you imported beneath your project in the Media Tray. To place an image onto a page in your project, simply drag it from the Media Tray and drop it onto a page.
By default, your project pages may contain several Image Wells, which are gray boxes in pre-determined locations meant for dropping an image onto. Dropping a photo onto an Image Well will place the photo in that space.
However if you drop a photo anywhere else on your page, or on top of an existing photo, you will see several options appear:
- Replace Photo: This option will appear if you've dropped the image on top of an existing image
- Two Page Photo: This option functions like the “Single Page Photo” setting, but allows your image to span across two separate pages in your book. Essentially, it treats two opposing pages as one single page, enabling your image to cover both simultaneously. To use this feature, simply drag your image from the Media tray to your book and click “Apply as Spread Background.”
-
Background Spread: This option allows you to set your image as the background, automatically covering the entire area across two pages. To use this feature, simply drag your image from the Media tray to your desired book pages and click “Apply as Spread Background.”
- Single Page Photo: This option allows you to place your image on the page exactly where you dropped it with your mouse. You can then move it around and make any additional adjustments as needed. To use this feature, simply drag your image from the Media tray to your desired book pages and click “Apply Photo to Page.”
- Background: This will place the image as a background for just the page it's been dropped onto.
