Tips & Warnings
PhotoDeluxe creates a new top layer for the text (see "How to Work With Layers in PhotoDeluxe," under Related eHows).
When dragging a corner handle to resize the title, holding down the Shift key will distort the text's proportions for special effects.
Delete the text by clicking to select it (use the Object selection tool), then pressing the Delete key.
To use this feature, the photo must be entered in My Photos (see "How to Organize Photos in PhotoDeluxe," under Related eHows).
When using the Get Photo Information window, you can move easily to the next photograph by clicking on the Next button.
