Using the Dynamic Overlays feature allows your guests to select which overlay will be applied on the final photo before it is printed.
1. Before adding the Dynamic Overlays to the Photo Layout editor, we need to create a folder that contains our overlay selection. Collect the desired overlays to one folder and place that folder in C:\MirrorMeBooth\Overlays\Dynamic.
2. In the Foto Master Photo Booth software > Layout tab:
a. Press on the [Folder+] icon:
b. Select the desired Dynamic Overlay folder you prepared in advance (minimum of 3 files in a folder):
c. The Dynamic Overlay selection is now loaded:
* You can use the right and left arrows on your keyboard to swipe between the overlays on the Photo Layout tab
3. In your preset's Workflow, place a Preview Final Photo Feature state. You can also add an Animation state before the final preview, to invite your guests to swipe and choose an overlay:
4. Start the preset. Once the workflow gets to the Preview state, you'll be able to select which overlay will be applied to the photo by swiping your finger on the touchscreen.

You can have your guests choose a set of an overlay and a background simultaneously (if you're using the Green Screen feature, for example).
1. Create a Dynamic Overlays folder.
2. Create a Dynamic Backgrounds folder.
