Introduction

Images are a critical part of any CRE document. Property photos, floor plans, and supporting visuals make the story clearer. In Lev Memo you can add, replace, crop, and lay out images without leaving the editor.

Add an image

  1. Insert an image block. Type /image or /gallery on a slide, or open the Insert menu and choose Image.
  2. Choose a source. Click the image placeholder and pick a source:
    • Image library
      • Upload a file from your computer.
      • Deal files — assets from the deal appear here automatically when available.
    • Web search — browse royalty-free options.

Edit an image

Resize and align

  • Drag the handles on the image frame to resize.
  • Use the image toolbar to align left, center, or right in the container.

Replace an image

  1. Open the image toolbar. Click the image to open its toolbar.
  2. Pick a new asset. Choose the image / library control, pick a new asset, and click Apply.

Set a focal point

Available for accent images and for images inside smart layouts (not every plain image block).

  1. Open the focal point control. Select the image, open its menu, and click the focal point (crosshairs) icon.
  2. Set the focus point. Click where the crop should center.

Crop

Available for standard uploaded images in the regular image component.

Select the image → Crop in the toolbar → adjust → Apply.

Galleries group multiple photos in one block — useful for property tours and amenity sets.

  1. Insert a gallery. Type /gallery or use InsertGallery.

  2. Add photos. Click placeholders to add images. On desktop, hold Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (Mac) and click to select multiple files at once.

  3. Pick a layout. Choose one of:

    • Grid — even cells, fixed feel
    • Flex — wraps rows by width
    • Column — one row, flexible column widths, equal height
    • Stacked — one column, equal width, flexible row heights

    Drag the gallery's outer edge to change vertical size.

Accent images

Accent images span edge to edge inside a card — great for hero shots, aerials, and maps.

Add or place an accent

  1. Open slide settings. Click the page / slide settings icon above the top-right of the slide.
  2. Choose an accent position. Pick where the accent should sit.
  3. Add or update the image. Use the accent's menu to add or update the image.

Edit the accent

  • Swap art with the add/update control, or delete the image / whole accent with the trash icon.
  • Drag borders to resize the accent region.
  • Use the crosshairs icon to set the focal point.
  • Toggle Fit image so the full photo stays visible in the frame.

Images in smart layouts

The Image with Text (Text with Image Boxes) layout pairs copy with a dedicated image area — handy for comps, tenant stories, and similar slides.

  1. Insert the layout. Type /Text with Image Boxes or use InsertText with Image Boxes.
  2. Edit each image. Click an image area to upload or replace. Use the menu on the item for focal point or Remove image.
