Sometimes you do not want to use a graphic completely, but only a certain part of it.
Step 1: Trim graphics directly into PowerPoint
However, you do not have to perform the necessary cutting in a graphics program, but you can cut the interfering parts of the graphics directly in PowerPoint. For example, you can separate unneeded image borders or give different proportions to an image.
Step 2: Undo the cut again
To do this, click on the graphic to display its handles, then click the Crop button on the Image Tools / Format tab. PowerPoint is now in Crop mode, which can be seen on the mouse pointer and the modified image marker.
Step 3: Use PowerPoints new image format templates
Slide the handles toward the center of the screen while holding down the mute button to remove the unwanted image parts. To finish the cut mode, simply click on the slide outside the graphic.
Step 4: This will change the shape of a graphic
When trimming, only the visible area of the graphic is changed, the graphics remain unchanged. Therefore you can correct or even reverse the cutting at any time. To do this, right-click the graphic to display its context menu.
Select "Size and Position". PowerPoint then displays the dialog box of the same name. Now set all the fields of the "Crop From" group to 0 to restore the graphic completely.
This variety of graphics effects, which PowerPoint has to offer, is very impressive, but it can also have an impact at the same time. You'll have endless options for image design, but you'll run the risk of getting bogged down when you create your graphics, and investing too much time to get you started with other tasks.
It is much more effective to use the new image format templates from PowerPoint. These are pre-built patterns that combine a certain set of graphical effects and transfer them to a graphic at the click of a mouse.
Of course you can also use image formats as a starting point for your own creations, which you can then "individualize" with a few additional effects.
To do this, select the graphic and display the "Image Tools / Format" tab. Open the catalog of the group "Picture format templates" and move with the mouse over the different symbols.
PowerPoint assigns directly to the selected graphics the respective image format template, whereby you have to wait for the optical feedback depending on the speed of your computer for a more or less brief moment
The image formats presented in the last step provide an image not only with a frame and a shadow, but also give it a special shape. You can always solve this requirement and give the graphic a different shape. To do this, select the desired graphic and open the "Image form" button on the "Image Tools / Format" tab.
If you know the selection well-known, this has its good reason. This is the same form catalog, which you can also use the "Insert / Form" button. Of course, not all forms are alike, but you should also try out forms that appear to be useless at first glance.
Also interesting is
A particularly large proportion of the image processing functions contained in PowerPoint 2007 is hidden in the "Image effects" button. You can find this button under the "Image Tools / Format" tab and in the "Image format templates" group.
Most presentations contain not just one, but several graphics, so you'll often be faced with the task of editing different graphics in the same way. If you restrict yourself to the use of the image format templates, this is not a big problem.
Step 5: Apply the "Image Effects" function correctly
But what do you do if you want individual image effects, whose production involves a lot of effort? The solution is astonishingly simple. Select the graphic whose formatting you want to apply.
Go to the "Start" tab and click on the button with the brush in the "Clipboard" group. Next to the mouse pointer appears a small brush. All you need to do is click on the image you want.
If you want to transfer a format to several graphics, double-click the brush button. It snaps in, so the mouse brush does not automatically disappear when you click a graphic. To exit the copy mode, click the button again.
Step 6: Transfer image effects to different graphics
Designs
Picture gallery
The designs of PowerPoint 2007 are a further development of the earlier color schemes, with which one could change the coloring of all the slides of a presentation in one fell swoop. Designs rely on this concept and extend it to fonts and effects. Specifically, there are ten so-called design colors, two different fonts, and twenty predefined effect combinations.

series
Shadows "can be represented in three different variants: inside or outside of the frame as well as in a perspective form, which gives the impression that the graphic is hovering over the page
Mirroring "gives the impression that the graphics are on a reflective background or just above the surface.
Luminaires "provides the frame of a graphic with fluorescent light, and you can adjust the luminosity and transparency freely.
The "soft edges" function brightens the edges of a graphic. This creates the effect of creating a smooth transition to the environment.
Bevel "adds the border (or frame) of a graphic with a stamped profile.
3D rotation "rotates and tilts the graphic to achieve a spatial effect.
General effects ": For all of the above mentioned effects, you can also adjust the texture of the surface of the image, for example matt and metallic, as well as the choice of lighting Light-emitting diodes, light-emitting diodes, light-emitting diodes, light-emitting diodes
