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.
