Tips and Tricks #07: Crop a Picture to Fit a Shape





Hello everyone,

Whether you're designing an adventurous photo collage, your company's brochure, or simply a team introduction for new hires, images always play a crucial role in making your presentation look interesting and interactive. 
 
To help spruce up your pictures and share memories with others, we introduce to you a simple and fun-to-use feature in Zoho Show:  Crop a picture to fit a shape.
 
How is this different from ordinary image cropping? 
'Cropping' modifies a rectangular image by adjusting the width and height of its frame. 'Cropping images to fit a shape' reframes the image to fit within a non-rectangular shape, such as a circle, star, or triangle. 
 
So, how do you crop a picture into a shape? 
1. Choose your picture to crop.
2. Click  Crop to Shape on the  FORMAT pane (to the right). 
Note that 'Crop to Shape' maintains the picture's aspect ratio, the height-to-width proportions. 
3. Choose a shape that works well for your image. 
4. Add a border to the shape to enhance its look. 
5. Apply more picture formatting styles (such as stroke color, shadow, or reflection).

  

Try out cropping your image with all kinds of interesting shapes, and get the best perspective of your image. 
 
We hope this was useful! Click here to learn about the other ways to crop a picture in Zoho Show. Do leave your feedback in the comments below and don't forget to click  Follow to get notified of all our upcoming series.
 
We'll be back soon with another interesting feature in focus! Until then, keep experimenting and exploring with Zoho Show!

        Hello, Currently Zoho Account Transaction Reports give you the opening balance, then lists the transactions, then provides the closing balance.  It would be great if you could add a column on the far right that shows the "Running Balance" on the account after each transaction.  There are many times when analyzing or tie-ing out transactions that this would be very helpful.  I currently have to frequently run a tape on my adding machine to get balance totals after a specific transaction on the list.
