  3. Almost a slideshow ... and position of objects

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    The level 1 pictures (...) have "Fit to screen" and "In percents" options.

    All the pictures of the others levels have "Original" and "In pixels" options.

    I still don't undesrtand why.

    Could you please give me some more explanations.

    Thanks.

    Here is the first group of Versailles' transitions with different options

    I'm definitely gonna have a look at it ! :)

    I use a method which is enough simple and with very good results for slideshows as Puzzle :

    First make a invert colors of the main image and put it in a view, then put the objects and put the transparency at 50 %. I work with "original" option for the objets.

    If you move the object above the similar part in the main image, you will have a perfect grey when it's at the good place. Make the same for all the objects.

    When finish, put all the objects at transparency = 100% and replace the picture with invert colors by the right picture.

    Really astute !

  5. PicturesToExe v5.00 beta #2

    Two other little suggestions for a future version :

    - a time ruler in % above the O/A timeline

    - a balloon help for time keypoints (sometimes some of them are so close that you can see what their time is)

    Igor, please, tell me if those constant suggestions bother you and if you would prefer that I make them after the final release... :unsure:

  10. Route Progress on a map

    in General Discussion

    Ebenist,

    I had a look at your show. Nicely done.

    I don't know if it was your purpose, but I think that this kind of moving route is interesting only if you give the spectator the impression to "travel".

    Adding a under layer movement and some pictures is a nice improvement.

    Even if your map is cut to close to the route progress to be nicely done (you should keep the progress in the middle of the show), here is what I made with your show to improve it. (Hope you don't mind :unsure: )

    And you could add a dot or better, a small boat... and everything you can think of.

    It only takes time to do it. :)

  16. Almost a slideshow ... and position of objects

    What a beautiful show !

    The use of the new features are really appropriate and done with a lot of creativity.

    It's really a perfect example of what can be done.

    I think it give us excellent ideas on how to dynamise our slideshows without over-using pan/zoom/rotate features.

    We're not allowed to publish boring slideshows anymore. :lol:

    Thank you very much for sharing Jean-Pierre !

  17. O.K., the Devil made me do it - LOL

    Hi Lin,

    I'm afraid to understand why you're talking about the devil ! :lol:

    Does each star correspond to an object ? :blink:

    And what effect did you use to give the impression that they shine ?

    An other question : what does the kind of "rope" (appears and disappears after a couple of seconds) in the middle of your show correspond to ?

  18. Contest

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    To help us to wait the final release ;) , I think maybe it would be nice to make a little contest between us.

    The goal is not to be the best but to practice, to improve our skills, to share our work, and to give each other ideas for our future works.

    The theme could be a word, a picture or a sound (music or fx).

    And the show should last less than 1 minute.

    May be the theme of the first contest could be "PicturesToExe". :)

    So guys, what do you think ?

  21. Attachment of Sound Files

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi Ebenist,

    I think the ability to attach music to a slide will continue to be done in the "customize slide" window, "music" tab (and not in the o/a window).

    But as Igor said when he made this beta #2 avalaible,

    "It's a very earlier beta and it temporarily doesn't include many features and functions existed in previous versions."

    But it will in the final release of v5. :)

    What I am desperate for at the moment is for "Main>Show settings>Close show after last slide" to be activated. I think Igor said that this would be in Beta#3.

    I think you're right Ron. See quote below.

    The beta #2 was released 1st May.

    The beta #3 should have been released two weeks ago if I trust Igor's message but I think we might be a little bit responsible for not being avalaible yet with our new suggestions. :unsure:

    I guess Igor find out new difficulties and had a look how to implement our suggestions.

    Let us him concentrate on his actual TODO list.

    I don't know how many other betas are previewed before final release but even if we might have to wait, I am fully confident on the final result.

    Barry,

    No problem :)

    We plan to include the next features to beta #3 (probably on this week)

    - Synchronized music

    - Listing of slides (forward/backward).

    - Close on show end.

    - "Curling of page" effect (probably).

    - Various small improvements in Visual editor.

    - Fixing of several bugs.

    - Potentially more reliable work of slide-show.

    the problem being we might get a stable version but then the " Igor can you do this" starts again

    Yes, I think we should stop asking for new requests, me first. :rolleyes:

    And we will start again the "Igor can you do this" as soon as the v5 is released. :)
