This article teaches you how to add a border to a slide in Google Slides. It also looks at how to add a border to a picture in Google Slides.
Creating a custom border around a slide in Google Slides is an excellent way to ensure a presentation looks professional. Here's how to add a border.
In a presentation in Google Slides, click Insert.
Click Shapes followed by choosing what shape border you want.
Drag the shape around the edge of the slide to create a border.
Hover over Order then click Send to Back.
You'll now have a basic border around the outside of your slide.
Google Slides makes it easy to change how the border looks. Here's where to go.
Click the border to select it.
Hover over Borders and lines.
Choose from Border colors, weight, type, dash, and decorations to change the look.
Click on any of the settings to apply the changes.
Border color changes the color of the line, while weight affects the width of the border, while type, dash, and decorations change how it looks.
If you want to add a border to a picture placed within a slide, rather than the whole slide itself, you need to follow a slightly different method. Here's how to add a border to a picture using Google Slides.
In the Google Slides presentation, with the image added, click on the image.
Hover over Borders and Lines.
Choose from the options including border colors, weight, type, dash, and decoration.
Click on each option you want with it being applied immediately.
If you simply want to add a border to a small part of your Google Slides presentation rather than the whole outside, you can follow a similar method to the above. Here's what to do.
Add the text box, video, or other element to the presentation.
Hover over Borders and Lines.
Choose what you wish to add to the border.
Solely changing the border color can make a text box look more eye-catching.
The change will be instantly applied.
Adding a border in a Google Slides presentation has multiple advantages. Here's a look at some of them.
To hide a border in Google Slide, select it, then go to Format > Borders and Lines > Border Color > Transparent.
To wrap text in Google Slides, select the text box edges and drag them over the image. Look for a red line indicating the text is about to overlap the image. The text box will automatically line up with the image.
There's no default way to add a border in Google Docs, but you can insert a table, a shape, or an image to use as a border.
