Normal View

1. Reset

Reset all your slides. You can do this one-at-a-time, or select all your slides (click on any slide in the list on the left and CTLR+A); then click on Reset.

2. Song Slides

For each song slide, adjust the size of the picture so it’s filling up the area on the left, but not covering any text. You can also adjust the width of the singer or song text boxes to make it fit nicer.

3. List Slides

  • Adjust the size/position of pictures so they’re not covering any titles/text, but filling in empty areas.
  • For the Births slide, make the list box wider and make the names bold again.
  • Adjust the text box for any slides to make it work better for your pictures.
