How Do I Create a Scrolling Image in Canva?

Last updated on January 22, 2023 @ 11:32 am

There are a few ways that you can create a scrolling image in Canva for a carousel or slideshow effect. One way is to use frame elements with a customized-size canvas.

To do this, first, create a new design.

Then, select the “Custom size” option.

Input the dimensions of the canvas that you will use for your scrolling image.

NOTE: It is recommended to use a canvas with a long width and short height for carousel-type scrolling images.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, it is easy to create a scrolling image in Canva that is too large or too small. Be sure to check the dimensions of your image before you begin.

Once your canvas is created, go to the “Elements” section and pick a frame for your images. Then click and drag it to your canvas.

The next step is to create copies of your frame.

From there, select one of the frames and position it to the right.

Next is to select the same frame again and position it in the middle.

Now, select all the frames in your canvas and click on the “Position” button in the top menu.

Then, use the “Tidy up” tool to arrange your frames.

From there, choose the images that you want to add to your canvas using either the “Elements” or the “Uploads” tabs.

Once you have added your images, select the “Share” button at the top to save and download your design.

NOTE: Creating a carousel-type scrolling image design in Canva is possible. However, you will need to use another design tool to animate the scrolling action.

 

Creating a scrolling image in Canva is a great way to add interest and movement to your designs. Whatever method you use for creating the carousel-type scrolling image design, adding images is easy and only takes a few minutes.
