Lesson 21: Expansion of the styles

21/65 Lessons 

Styles have the extension “pxs”. By default, there are many styles it installed in ProShow. However, one can purchase additional styles or via Internet.

 

How can these styles be inserted?

1. Manage Styles yourself with ProShow Producer 

  • Open ProShow.
  • Add a blank slide or a photograph to the slide list.
  • Double-click the slide and select [Slide]- [Slide Styles].
  • Click the [Manage Styles] button.
  • Click [Add].
  • Navigate to the folder on your computer where your styles are, select a style and click [Open]. You may also select and import multiple styles simultaneously.
  • Click [Done].

Your new style will be available in your “Slide Style List”. If you do not see it immediately, just search in one of the drop menus (Category, Aspect Ratio and Layers).

 

2. Directly importing a Style

  • Double click on the “pxs file” which you just unzipped.
  • That’s it. There’s nothing more to do. ProShow will automatically import the style.

 

3. Installing a style via plugins (Setup)

Some styles come with a “Setup” system and can be installed just like a normal program. Double-click [Setup.exe] and follow the instructions. Well just be careful where and in what folder you place the styles. Usually with this kind of plugins you also have frameworks, backgrounds and masks that are imported besides styles.

 

4. Copying and Pasting a style in Program Files

One can simply copy and paste styles (pxs) into the folder of the application itself.
These are the directories:
C: \ Program Files \ Photodex \ ProShowProducer \ Styles or
C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Photodex \ ProShowProducer \ Styles

 

Backgrounds, frames and masks

Besides styles you can also copy and paste backgrounds, frames and masks into the specific folders of the application itself.

 

In the folder C: \ Program Files \ Photodex \ ProShowProducer \ Content you have the following folders:

  • Backgrounds (backgrounds)
  • Borders (frames)
  • Masks (masks)
