| Century Color ROES makes designing an album easy and fun. There are multiple drag-and-drop templates available, or you can use the template editor button to create your own. The possibilities are endless! |
| |
 |
The Template Editor button in ROES allows you to customize your album pages. You have the ability to add various design elements to the layouts and created nodes. There are built in options for adding color options, shading and shadowing, and studio-supplied backgrounds and masks. Century Color also provides additional options, such as backgrounds, borders, and mask images as well as font type and image tone selections.
Note: When you draw a new node, the mask and stroke options can not be applied. |
