Community Q&A
- QuestionHow do I drag the photo in the backdrop box?
Community AnswerMove the photo to your desktop. Go to the very last dot on Photo Booth. Drag the photo to one of the boxes shown. - QuestionHow can I make a slide from Keynote my background?
SergeantproCommunity AnswerExport the Keynote presentation to images, which can be done by selecting File, Export to, and Images when in Keynote. Pick which slide you would like to have as an image ("All" or "From slide x to y"). Click next, and then export. The image of the slide will be inside a folder with the name of your Keynote presentation. Finally, follow the steps in this article to get the image of the slide as your backdrop.
Tips
- After you select the user backdrop, it will say "Please step out of frame". Do step out of frame, so Photo Booth could identify the green screen (or blue screen, a white wall, whatever.)Thanks
