Resize and rotate

Click on an image to brand information technology agile. You'll see a blue border appear, with blue handles in each corner and a green handle at the top.

To resize an image, drag the bluish handles to increase or decrease the size. If you're using a touchscreen, y'all can drag the handles with one finger (note: you tin can't use a pinch and zoom motion to resize images). Notice how the paradigm acme and width (in pixels) displays in the top left corner.

To rotate, click on the green handle and you'll come across information technology changes to an arrow. While holding down the mouse, move it left and right to rotate the image. On a touchscreen, you tin can use two fingers to rotate the paradigm. Detect how the bending of rotation displays in the tiptop left corner.

Image Inspector

When you click on an image and and then click Inspector (i) button, you get a number of other options:

Add an image citation to the page

Click on the 'Add attribution to page' button and the image attribution will appear in a text box underneath the prototype. The link to the original source prototype will become active when the book is in Read manner.

Learn more about copyright and attribution.

Adding a link to an epitome

Here's how you add a Hyperlink. You can either copy and paste the URL (web address) or you can link the epitome to specific page in your book. Simply type the page number in.

NOTE: Links aren't active until yous switch to Read Mode or publish the book online.

Calculation alt text to an paradigm

Likewise, y'all can follow the same procedure to add alt text to an image. This is a clarification of the prototype that is used by screen readers to help visually impaired users read the book (the more than descriptive, the better). Y'all add together the alt text where it says Accessibility.

Layering and locking the paradigm

If you lot correct-click on the image, you'll come across a little carte announced. With this you can:

Move the image to the front/back - this will re-order which layer the image exists on. For example, if y'all're using a photo for a background prototype, you would move it right to the back so everything else you add to the folio appears in front of the epitome.
Lock - you can lock the paradigm in place so it can't be moved (useful if you're creating a template).

Tin can I ingather images? Can I add together effects?

At the moment at that place are no photo editing options in Volume Creator. You lot'll demand to crop or make edits before y'all insert your movie into Book Creator.
