Static Background
How to Place Images on a Static Background in Bulk?
1. Open Images
Open one or multiple images you intend to apply on a static background. Pick them manually, drop them or add entire folders here. In case you are dealing with large amounts of images, a handy Advanced file select option allows you to automatically select the desired ones according to extension or size.
2. Add Static Background Action
Go to the Image editing tab and click Add action → Creative Retouching → Static Background
In the newly opened window you will be able to pick the image that will serve as static background.
Here you can also position the overlay image by defining its X and Y coordinates. Other available options include customizing the opacity or color intensity of the foreground image and watermarking the transparent color, which allows you to tailor how this image will appear over the static background.
Sometimes it's suitable to combine Static Background with Resize or Crop, to resize source images for better positioning on a background.
Check all image editing in real time by ticking the Preview box on the upper right side of the window.
3. Save the Result
Pick a new location for your edited images. Save them directly in the source folder, in a subfolder or in another location of your choice. Finally, decide on the format of the output images by selecting the desired format from the Convert to section.
Then simply press Convert and your newly images will soon be ready.
