How to Add Stickers to a Slide in ProPresenter

Overview

Stickers are animated graphics you can drop onto any slide in ProPresenter to add emphasis, energy, and fun. Common uses include circling or underlining a key word, adding arrows, or highlighting a point as you speak.

Stickers come from ProContent:

  • All ProContent members get a set of free stickers.
  • ProContent subscribers get the full sticker library, with new stickers added regularly.

Add a sticker to a slide

  1. Open the slide in the editor. In Show view, right-click the slide you want to add a sticker to and choose Edit Slide.

Style the sticker with effects

  2. Under Fill, click Inspector to open the media inspector for the sticker.

Make the sticker appear on click

Add a build so the sticker animates in when you choose, instead of showing as soon as the slide goes live.

  1. With the sticker selected, open the Build tab in the right-hand panel.
  2. Next to Build In, click Add Build and choose Cut.
  3. At the bottom of the panel, set Start to On Click. The sticker now appears in the Build Order list.

Present the slide

  1. Go back to Show view.
  2. Click the slide once to show it. The slide appears without the sticker.
  3. Click the slide again. The sticker animates onto the screen and keeps looping.
