I've added an image as a background to my slides. On editing view, it's cropped to fit perfectly. When I click 'Slideshow' to present, the image is off centre, and no longer covering the entire background of each slide. Please help!
Thanks

It's saved as .odp - is that the format?

Yes it is.
Can you upload a screenshot of the result and/or the file itself (see: How to attach a document here)?

If you are resizing the image in Impress, that may be the cause of the problem Best to resize in an external graphics app, and then import Impress.

I don't know how to do that and still make it fit the background perfectly. Is there really no way in-software to resize and crop it to fit the slide without it then displaying wrong?

Looks like a bug.
Can you try with LibreOffice (at least a portable version just to check)?

Best if you upload a small sample .odp file (need only one slide) and a screenshot of the image correctly positioned in Impress.
