How to Replace an Image?

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]A template is just a template and it was not written specifically for your shop or office. So most likely, you will have to replace images or photos. Select the picture that you want to change and right click it. Choose Change Picture from the popup menu and choose to change from a file, from online sources, from icons or from your clipboard.
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://signagetube.com/wp-content/uploads/how-to-use-digital-signage-templates.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]

There you can choose where the picture comes from.

• Your computer
• Free pictures from the internet
• Icons
• Clipboard

You can browse the images on your own computer, or look for an image online. Let choose From Online Sources… This will open a browser where you can type in your search terms. For example here: ironing board. It will show you relevant images that you can choose from.

When you have what you want, just click the Insert button and PowerPoint will replace that existing image from your template.

How to Replace a Text?

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]Without a doubt, you will have to keep the content of your digital signage presentation up-to-date. Change product descriptions, change promotions, change prices.

To edit a textbox on your digital signage slide, just select the textbox with the text that you want to replace.
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://signagetube.com/wp-content/uploads/digital-signage-templates-replace-text.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]Then start typing in the new text.
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://signagetube.com/wp-content/uploads/digital-signage-templates-text-replaced.jpg” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]

Make all the text changes that you need to do. Sometimes it can be hard to precisely select the text box that you want to update. Sometimes multiple textboxes are used in the same area of your slide or grouped together. A good tool to help you select the textbox that you want is the Selection Pane.

To open the Selection Pane in PowerPoint, select a textbox. Then click the Shape Format option of the PowerPoint ribbon and click the Selection Pane option from the Arrange group.

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://signagetube.com/wp-content/uploads/digital-signage-templates-handy-selection-pane-in-powerpoint.jpg” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]

At the Selection Pane on the right of your PowerPoint application you can now see a full list of all the shapes of the current slide. Simply select the shape name from the list and the shapes that were hard to select before, can be all selected now.

And another tip on the PowerPoint Selection Pane: now that you see and know the name of a given shape, simply click a second time on the name of the shape at the Selection Pane and give it a meaningful name. That will help you find your textbox even faster next time.
