Rotating, moving or deleting photos in the Pixum Photo Book

When creating a Pixum Photo Book in the Pixum Photo World Software, your images are always placed in so-called layout frames. You can move them, reposition them and also move the images within the frames. This tip explains how to do this.

" 1. Rotate, move & delete images in the photo book "

To edit the desired layout frame, select it by clicking on it - or select several frames by dragging a selection rectangle over the page(s) while holding down the mouse button. As soon as you have selected one or more layout frames, they are marked with a colored border (= border frame). Now you can edit the frames as follows:

Rotate photos:

Inside the layout frame, there is a round dot at the top center. Simply drag it to the right or left while holding down the mouse button - your frame will then rotate in 1° steps. A 90° rotation is possible via the context menu (right mouse click) > "Rotate objects left/right".

Move/reposition photos:

To move photos, move your mouse pointer over the border frame until it becomes a cross with arrowheads. Now you can reposition the desired frame by holding down the left mouse button.

Delete photos:

To permanently delete an image from your Pixum Photo Book, simply press the Delete key or right-click > "Delete" with the frame selected. To remove the corresponding layout frame, for example to redesign the entire page or leave it blank, simply repeat the process a second time.

Do you want to save yourself the work of adding all your photos to the photo book? Use the Pixum Photo Book Assistant right at the beginning of the creation and define folders or images you want to present in your photo book. This way you will automatically receive a sorting suggestion, which you can of course adapt to your individual requirements.

Afterwards, you can conveniently edit and fine-tune the images in the photo show. " 2. How to design your Pixum Photo Book "
