You can add shapes to your ad creative by selecting the Shape Element from the element picker.

From the Ad Builder, you can choose from any variety of shapes. Once you've added your shape, you can move, size, and edit it inside the ad creative using all the settings in the Attribute Panel.

In this article, we'll cover the following:

Resizing Shapes

You have two options for resizing your shape within your ad creative.

  • Resizing from Attributes Panel: You can resize your shape within the Attributes Panel by entering the Width and Height in pixels of your desired size or by using the plus and minus signs to increase or decrease its size.

🧠 Note: Updating the shape size from here will not lock the aspect ratio, so it may distort the shape.

  • Resizing in the Ad Workboard: You can edit the size from within the ad workboard by using the bounding box to drag the corners or sides of the Shape Element to resize it.

Moving Shapes

You have two options for moving your shape within your ad creative.

  • Defining Pixel Placement: You can define where the element lives based on pixel placement using the Top and Left fields. The Top field will define the number of pixels between the top edge of the ad frame to the top edge of the shape element. The Left field will define the number of pixels between the left edge of the ad frame to the left edge of the shape element.

  • Moving in the Ad Workboard: You can drag and drop the Shape Element within the ad workboard to relocate the element to your desired position.

Aligning Shapes

The Element Align tool allows you to align the shape element in relation to the ad frame. Alignments include top, horizontal center, bottom, left, vertical center, and right.
