About This Feature

Overview

Increase/Decrease Brightness in WPS Presentation is a built-in picture adjustment feature for Windows that changes the overall lightness or darkness of an image.

Key capabilities:

  • Increase Brightness makes a picture look lighter when the original image appears too dark.
  • Decrease Brightness makes a picture look darker when the original image appears too bright.
  • Repeated clicks apply the adjustment step by step for finer control.

This feature is useful for slide image cleanup, cover slide polishing, and keeping picture tone more consistent across a presentation.
