Jean-Charles, We plan it in future version(s).

Hi, Please can you uninstall PTE 9 and install it again as you did it earlier? Will that problem occur again? Thanks in advance,

Please can you try to open this video (a demo project) again? In the main menu > Help > click "Welcome demo". Does it work now? "Welcome demo" was available on first run in all versions of PTE during last 10 years.

Ivor, Please let me know more details: 1. Does this problem occur with both versions - 8.0 and 9.0? 2. Do you have this problem with other projects which contain other audio files? If the problem occur only with certain project and certain audio files, please send me all project files in a ZIP archive. We'll check.

Colin, We'll implement it later in the nearest updates (9.0.1, or 9.0.2).

I moved a discussion about the problem discovered by Gary to a new topic here

Lin, Thanks for this slide style! You done a large work on it.

Please add your vote for this poll.

Ray, Color management is added to new PicturesToExe 9 Beta. See details here: https://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?/topic/19805-color-management-in-pte-9/

Ron, Please read the following topics: Announcement of PicturesToExe 8.0.22: https://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?/topic/17226-picturestoexe-8/#comment-131005 Solution for old APP's (Mac)

Dave, Please add a demo project which uses this custom transition.

Dave, Thanks, I'll look tomorrow.

Yes, the only problem - it would be nice to use CT to see two slides on the screen. But I'm not sure that it possible easily.

Thanks!

Dave, I downloaded .ptestyle and it contained an old splitter.

Dave, Can you adapt this style for the new splitter object in current Beta version? One more idea. How you think, is it possible to create a movement of an image along this axis: It would be nice slide style

Jeff, I apologize for this problem with uploads to Slideshowclub (if I understood rightly your problem). Current upload limit is 128 MB per 1 file. It worked correctly earlier, but some security update has changed settings of Linux server and I still can't find where to fix it. I'll solve this problem after the final version of PicturesToExe 9.0 (in 2-3 weeks).

Gary, We will fix this problem after the release of PTE 9.

If I understood rightly this problem, I recommend to create Safe EXE for Internet in a ZIP archive. It should solve this issue.

Bruno, Thanks, I understand. Several comments: No. 2 is not actual since PicturesToExe 8.0 can create certified EXE files (Safe EXE for Internet). Yes, we consider the idea to create the player for PTE presentations. A release date of PTE player is not related with release date of v9.0, because it's would be a separate software product. We're working on this idea now. I think that PTE player may also solve issues with NVIDIA/AMD cards in laptops.
