Slidewise's Replace Image feature makes it possible to do two key things that otherwise you couldn't easily do in PowerPoint.
- Replace an image without affecting the crop or image effects
- Replacing images that have been used multiple times in one go
Replace image without changing crop
When you use the Change Picture feature in PowerPoint, any crop or image effects applied to an image are lost and will need to be reinstated. However, with Slidewise you can replace an image without altering the cropping or effects — great if, for example, you are replacing a comp image with the licensed version.
To use it, select the image you want to replace in PowerPoint and it will be displayed at the bottom of the Slidewise pane in the Inspector. Right-click the image in the Inspector and choose Replace Image.
Select your replacement image and click 'Open' to confirm — Slidewise will do the rest.
Replace images used multiple times
Slidewise shows how many times each image is used in the presentation. Any images used more than once will be shown with a number alongside them in the Slidewise index — example below — image7.jpg is used 5 times.
Imagine you’re tasked with changing a logo that's been placed on every slide or replacing watermarked stock images with non-watermarked ones post-purchase. Powerpoint only allows you to replace one image at a time, which would be very slow! With Slidewise, you can replace 100s of images in seconds.
- Click on an image you want to replace in PowerPoint.
- Right-click the image in Slidewise and select Replace N Image Instances (N being the number of image instances!).
- Choose your replacement image, and Slidewise will replace all instances in the presentation with the new image.
