Slice an image
Split one image into parts and give each part its own link, for example each heading in a menu strip.
Slicing splits one image into parts and lets you give each part its own link. For example, in a menu strip image each heading goes to its own page.
Slice the image

The left panel switches to the image's Content tab.Click Slice image
The image opens in a window with rulers along the top and the left.Add the cut lines
For a horizontal line, drag down from the top ruler. For a vertical line, drag right from the left ruler. For equal parts, pick a number under Rows and Columns.Click a slice and type its link
The alt text and link fields for that slice open at the side. A field you leave empty uses the image's own alt text and link.Click Apply
MailGraf cuts the image and saves the parts to your media library. The panel shows Image is sliced and the number of slices.
To delete a line, double-click it or drag it back onto the ruler. To change the slices later, click Edit in the panel.
Split a slice again
To cut one slice into smaller parts, click that slice and click Split this slice. Only that slice opens in the window; add your new lines. To go back, click Whole image.
Line limit
You can add up to 10 lines in each direction per cut. If you need more parts, split a slice again.
Frequently asked questions
Does a sliced image look broken in the email?
No. The parts sit side by side and one above the other with no gaps; the recipient sees a single image.
What happens if I give a part no link?
That part uses the image's own link. If the image has no link either, nothing happens when the part is clicked.
Can I undo slicing later?
Yes. Open the slicing window and click Back to a single image. The image becomes one piece again.
