How to put PTE to the test? With this style, each confetti is an object with its own complex movement (pano, rotation, etc.) and color parameters. Each explosion has 300 confetti. With two confetti throws, PTE has to manage 600 objects at the same time. Other free styles like this one are available on Diaporashop.com. Regards, Pascal. 2 Multicolor confetti.ptestyle

Thank you Lin for this demonstration. I have a wedding slideshow to prepare, I will largely draw inspiration from your example to realize it. Best regards, Pascal.

Hi Igor, I'm glad to know you liked my styles. Of course, you can include them in the future PTE version. It is a pleasure for me to contribute a little bit to the development of PTE. Best regards, Paiche.

Thank you Igor for these styles. The color filters available under PicturesToExe 9 actually offer the possibility to create amazing effects. I used a variation of the black and white levels applied to a BW image to get a "dynamic mask". For example, these settings allow the appearance of an image with a brushstroke and watercolor effect.

Hello MUR, Yes absolutely, it's a good tip I used to generate many patterns that appear randomly. Pascal.

A little more information: All additional parameters (Damping factor, Damping speed and fmod) can be changed in Objects and Animation interface. So, you can easily change the behavior of the bounce. Regards, Pascal.

You know it because you read these lines, PTE is an impressive software. Version 9 is really accomplished and has greatly facilitated the creation of custom styles and transitions. In the Objects and Animation window, when you copy an object you can obviously paste it into the list of objects. As you may have already noticed, if you paste the contents of the clipboard into a text editor, the description of the object and the settings of the animation appear "readable". You can easily change the values of the parameters in the editor then copy and paste in the list of objects in PicturesToExe to see a new modified object appear. What is surprising is that it is also possible to change the functions « add modify » : Oscillation, Jumping, Ping pong and Shift. All of these functions use the Amplitude, Repeat, and Phase Shift parameters. For fun, I wanted to simulate the movement of a ball that bounces with a progressive damping until the complete stop. For that I modified the Jumping function by adding the parameters Damping factor, Damping speed and fmod (frequency modulation). However, I do not advise to use this new function in a style (other than for fun), because I'm not sure that this possibility is sustainable with future versions of PTE.

Hello Dave, Thank you for your work. Your styles are really interesting and I will probably be inspired by this setup for my next styles. Pascal

It includes articles about styles and transitions to download as well as tutorials of creations of its own animations. Styles and transitions are structured with objects named in English for ease of understanding. I hope these styles and transitions will please you. Yours sincerely.
