About images

Images are one of the key elements of any project's design. In this guide, you'll be able to explore the basics of image uploading, sizing, positioning, and much more๐Ÿ˜Š

If you're more of a visual learner, you can see some of the basics in this video:


Uploading an image/logo to a project

1) To use your photos in your Uizard project, simply click on 'Image' on the left-hand menu:
โ€‹

2) Click 'Uploads' and the blue 'Upload image' icon:
โ€‹

3) Your uploaded image will then be ready to be dragged and dropped to your project:


Maximum file sizes for images

Most images, regardless of file size, can be uploaded within Uizard as long as they are in JPG, PNG, or HEIC file types.

However, if you experience an error when uploading, try scaling your image upload to less than 4096px x 4096px. Additionally, it would also help if you make sure itโ€™s less than 16MB.


Enlarging images

You can make images bigger by following these steps:

1) Select the image you'd like to make bigger by clicking it.

2) Drag the edges of the image outward to make it larger.

3) Additionally, you can resize it by clicking on the design menu on the right-hand side and finding the size section after selecting the image as shown below:


Locking image ratio

To keep the image ratio while changing the size of an image, you'll need to simply press and hold the 'Shift' key while resizing ๐Ÿ‘


Cropping images

1) Double-click the image you'd like to crop. Additionally, you can click the image once and then click the "Crop" button within the in-line toolbar to reach the same image editor:

2) Drag the edges around to crop the image or you can resize the image. Please see the video below for how to do this:

Using an image as a screen background

3) Select the image and then click the "Design" button on the right-hand menu.
