PowerPoint Vignette Effect
What a great idea! Thanks for this.
I’d tried in vain to get PPT to create a decent vignette in the past, so this is ideal.
At work though, I still use PPT 2007, and there I get quite a hard inner edge to the vignette. Any tips to improve that?
It’s a good tip about holding down Shift to get a square, too. Another one is to place the photo’s centre on crosshairs made from guides, then draw the square from that centre by holding down Ctrl+Shift.
By way of reciprocation, you might also like this (unrelated) tip about showing a “custom” slide for each question you’re asked during a talk.
