iOS: The command is not freely available in this version.
With the ribbon command Insert | group Slide | Photo album 
, you can insert several picture files into your presentation at once.
A new slide will be created for each picture file. If desired, borders and captions can be added to the pictures. This allows you to create an attractive slide show from a collection of pictures with minimal effort.
Proceed as follows:
| 1. | Go to the slide where you want to start inserting the pictures. |
| 2. | Choose the ribbon command Insert | group Slide | Photo album . A corresponding dialog box then appears. |
| 3. | First, specify which pictures are to be inserted. |
| To do so, click on the Add button. A file dialog appears. Use it to switch to the folder that contains the pictures, and select all the pictures which you want to insert. |
| Tip: You can select an entire range of files in the file dialog by clicking on the first file and then clicking on the last file while holding down the Shift keyñ. You can add or remove individual files by clicking on them while holding down the Ctrl key. |
| 4. | When the desired picture files are selected, confirm with Open. |
| 5. | Specify the appearance of the slides to be inserted by setting the other options in the dialog box as desired (see below). |
The selected pictures are now inserted accordingly.
Options of the dialog box
The options in the dialog box for this command have the following functions:
▪List Pictures
| Here, you specify which graphic files are to be inserted. |
| To add more pictures to the list at any time, click on the Add button and proceed as described above. |
| To remove pictures from the list, select them and click on the Remove button. |
| You can use the arrow buttons (to the right of the list) to change the order of the pictures. If, for example, you select a picture in the list and click on the down arrow, the picture will be moved down by one position. |
▪Layout
| Use this option to specify the layout of the slides that will be created for each picture: |
| Fit to slide: This option scales the picture exactly to the height (or width) of the slide. |
| Picture only: This option scales the picture so that it covers a large part of the slide, but still leaves margins. |
| Title and picture: This option is like the previous option except an empty title placeholder is inserted above the picture (where you can subsequently enter text). |
▪Decoration
| Use this option to specify whether the pictures are to be decorated with a border or shading. |
▪Caption
| Use this option to specify whether the pictures are to be labeled with their file name. This is then inserted as a text frame below the picture. |
▪Save pictures in document
| If this option is enabled, Presentations saves copies of all the pictures used in the document and uses the copies instead of the originals. If it is disabled, Presentations only saves references to the original picture files in the document. |
▪Buttons below the Preview
| You can use the buttons below the preview of the current picture file to perform various types of manipulations on the pictures that are to be inserted. Your changes will be applied only to the current presentation; they will not be saved in the original picture files. |
| First, select the desired picture in the list Pictures. You can also select several pictures at once (using the Ctrl or Shiftñ keys). |
| From left to right, these buttons have the following functions: |
| Rotate 90 degrees clockwise |
| Rotate 90 degrees counter-clockwise |
| Reduce colors to grayscale |
| Use the original colors of the picture |
| Discard any changes made with the above buttons |
