Simple Tilt and Zoom 3D (Built-In)

This tutorial was written originally  in Producer 5, so the menus may look a bit different than in the newer versions. But the instructions are still the same.


This style  shows a main central image that continuously zooms in and tilts, while duplicates of the image appear on each side.

Suppose  that instead of those two duplicated  images, we'd like to place two completely different pictures on each sides of the main central one.

You may have noticed that if you attempt to replace one image, ProShow will automatically replace all the images in that slide. This is because, in slide styles, duplicated images are linked. So, how can we stop that automatic replacing of images?

Here is a simple and very effective way, to break the linkage between images.

Apply the style 3 times in 3 different slides. In each slide insert a different picture.

Then start deleting layers:
In slide 1, delete layers 2 and 3 and the background.
In slide 2, delete layers 1 and 3 and the background.
In slide 3, delete layers 1 and 2.

Now you have 3 slides, each with a picture, in different positions: center, left and right
Your final step is to combine these three slides.

In your slide list, select the three slides (with [Ctrl], and then RIGHT click. From the pop-up menu choose "Combine Slides".



Voila ! You've created a new slide with all the three layers, and in each layer you have a different picture. If your background got mixed up somehow, drag it to the bottom of your slide.

Remember, you can create a new style from this slide, and use it again in other shows.
