Do you want to learn how to make your slides more visually appealing?
Here's a Cool Tip: Fill a shape with a picture in Microsoft PowerPoint
Here's how to do it.
- Add a shape to your document by going to the Insert tab and selecting Shapes. Choose the shape you want and click on the slide to add it.

- You can adjust how the image is formatted within the shape using two actions: Fill or Fit.
- Click the image within the shape and go to the Picture Format tab that appears.
- Click the arrow below Crop in the Size section of the ribbon and choose either Fill or Fit.
- When you “Fill” a shape with an image, this adjusts the picture size to match the shape’s height or width, whichever is greatest.
- When you “Fit” a shape with an image, this adjusts the picture size so that both the height and width match the shape.
That's it!
