You can add a photo to any positioning on an org chart.
The easiest way to do this is to pick a format for the position that is designed to contain a headshot photo.
Select the position or box you want to add a photo to and click the Add Picture button on the SmartPanel to the left of your workspace.
You'll be able to upload and insert photo from your computer.
The photo will automatically appear in a left column, separate from the name and title section.
Adjusting an Imported Photo
If you need to, you can easily adjust any inserted photo. Move it around inside the shape, zoom in or out, or crop or stretch it to fit the shape differently.
To enter into photo editing mode, double-click the photo you want to edit. Once in photo editing mode, you'll see a bright gold outline around your selected image and a modal of controls you can use to modify the image.
Pan and Move the Photo
By default, SmartDraw will adjust the imported photo so it's cropped to fit the available space. If you don't like what part of the photo is visible in the default crop, you can move the photo around by dragging it with your mouse. First, double-click the photo to enter into photo editing mode, then grab the photo and slide it around in the shape to adjust what's visible and pan the view. When you're happy with the visible image, click Apply.
Zoom In and Out
If you want to zoom in on specific details of your imported image, you can double-click the photo to enter into photo editing mode. Then use the magnifying glass icons to zoom the image in or out using the plus or minus icon.
Adjusting the Cropping Mode
By default, SmartDraw inserts a photo so it's cropped to fit the available space. The image will fill the available area proportionally with any excess cropped. There are 3 different modes available.
Crop to fit: proportionally fill the shape fully with the excess cropped
Proportional: proportionally fit the shape to fully display the image using its original aspect ratio.
Stretch: non proportionally fill the shape even if it distorts the image.
Exiting Photo Editing Mode
You can undo any unwanted edits using the undo icon that looks like a circle with a reverse arrow. You can discard all changes and exit photo editing mode by clicking the X icon. You can accept all your changes and exit photo editing mode by hitting the yellow Apply button.
Removing a Photo from an Org Chart Shape
If you no longer want a photo associated with a position, select the box or position in question and under Shape Format in the SmartPanel (to the left of your canvas) click on one of the shape formats without a photo. This will remove the photo associated with your shape.
