Without manually adjusting, you can simply draw the shape you want directly on the portion of the image you want to crop into shape. Here are the steps you need to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Select the image<\/li><li>Press the Shift key and select the shape<\/li><li>Open the <strong>Shape Format<\/strong> tab<\/li><li>Click on <strong>Merge Shapes<\/strong><\/li><li>Click on <strong>Intersect<\/strong> <\/li><li>Now the points of intersection between the chosen shape and your image get combined<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cropping-a-picture-to-an-aspect-ratio-in-powerpoint\">Cropping a picture to an aspect ratio in PowerPoint<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Aspect Ratio tool in cropping allows you to convert your photo into a visual image in full screen to be used as the slide background. For printed slides, you can use the 4:3 ratio, and for widescreen monitors, you can crop it to the 16:9 ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the steps to follow to crop a picture into the ratio of your choice:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>First, select the image to be cropped<\/li><li>Open the <strong>Picture Format<\/strong> tab<\/li><li>Click on the <strong>Crop<\/strong> menu<\/li><li>From the dropdown, choose <strong>Aspect Ratio<\/strong><\/li><li>Select the aspect ratio \u2013 16:9 or 4:3<\/li><li>Resize the image if required<\/li><li>Adjust the image within the frame if needed<\/li><li>Click on crop once more or the Esc key to finish<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature is best to use on images with plenty of negative space \u2013 like the sky, sand, water, etc., as it leaves you with sufficient space in the image to crop out and still leave you with a complete picture. You can also place your content in the negative space. Cropping images without negative spaces to aspect ratio will enlarge the size of the main objects in your image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cropping-images-to-create-3d-pictures-or-pop-up-images-in-powerpoint\">Cropping Images to Create 3D pictures (or Pop-Up Images) in PowerPoint<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-1024x610.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13727\" width=\"744\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-1024x610.png 1024w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-768x458.png 768w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-200x119.png 200w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-400x238.png 400w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-600x358.png 600w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images-800x477.png 800w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Creating-3D-pop-up-images-in-PowerPoint-by-cropping-images.png 1067w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 744px) 100vw, 744px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>PowerPoint offers a really neat feature that lets you make images appear in 3D.
