AlanPickup Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I had a picture to go in a round picture frame in publisher. The picture was oblong so there were going to be gaps at the side. I thought the best way to deal with this was to add a fill using colour picker tool and picking up the background of the photo to fill the frame. But this does not work. There does not seem to be a way of having a fill colour in the picture frame and an image unless I am missing something. Tried with both jpg & png. If I am not missing something what is the point of having fill on a picture frame, it may as well be a shape? I tried this with a shape converted to a picture frame and same result. Only way seems to edit the photo to increase the canvas and fill the background, which seems a lot of work. Not a big user of photo so any advise welcomed Quote Alan Pickup Windows 11 Home all Affinity suite of Apps PC and Gigabyte Laptop 16gb Ram and Nvidia GTX1660 Super on each.
