shito I have converted 3 of the above images to .PNG as you requested, would you please check your PM messages. Thanks

shito Here is a few samples, couple taken the other evening. If you wish to e-mail me I can put together what I have for you to use. If you pick any, I will convert to .png if you prefer. Not a photographer by all means, but have a collection of some lucky shots.

John Please disregard my explanation in Post # 2 I have never done an invisible menu as Lin Evans and jfa (John) have explained but I learned something new today. It works fine with no flash to desktop. Excellent work around for daisy chaining - auto run - exe's Ver 5 – PTE Thanks

Hi John In order to “Loop” the two .EXE files As a quick thought it could be done but would have to be re-constructed with the two members working .PTE files in Picture to exe. In their presentations Member # 1 would enter in “Project Options – Advanced – “ Run application after last slide “ – member_2.exe ( members show name, and re-save the .exe ) Member #2 would do the same but enter “Run application after last slide” – member_ 1.exe ( re-save the .exe ) Close show after last slide - checked Copy both .Exe files to clubs laptop hard drive, start up member # 1 presentation it will run member # 2 show and loop until stopped by .ESC key. ** Note – in version 5 you will get a flash to desktop between shows. Version 4.48 is OK. Without re-constuction I'm not sure if it can be done, Possibly other members may have another suggestion.

Definitely Mike. In Video Builder lower left next to “ Project Options “ un-check the box “ Create Menu “ It will then go directly to the burn page. I have yet to try it thought ! - let us know if works as it should.

Hi Ray Copy & Paste new link into URL location - does the trick Enjoy your vacation. Thank you.

John Yes I have noticed the increase in readers to the forum. A warm welcome to all Another announcement. July 2 - WnSoft’s anniversary PicturesToExe v1.00 (July 2nd, 1999) * Released PicturesToExe v1.00 -------------------------------------------------- HAPPY ANNIVERSARY WnSoft team

Ray Ray Hi Ray I was delighted to read your "Draft" tutorial, however I seem to be having a problem downloading your updated / extended latest version from the above link in post #22. Is there a new link ?

wedford In “Project Options “ – “ Advanced “ you must have checked “ Allow to restore pictures ( via the “ Print “ button on the navigation bar ) You will then get the Save button. Added If the box marked as " Only Main Image " is left blank it will save the slide as a .bmp (Slide1.bmp) When " Only Main Image " is checked - it will save the main image as original file name but in .jpg format.

Tom / Igor Thank you both for the further explanation. Appreciated. Added: I guess what through me off was the words " Allow Modification " as I questioned why you would want to. I assume the default ( off ) would be the appropriate way in most cases.

In Beta 16 “ Allow Modification of EXE file “ was added, in - View – Advanced Options. Igor: Original Post: http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index....ow+modification Doing a search I find there seems to be no discussion on this subject. I am not clear on the interpretation of this quote, can someone give me a detailed explanation as to when you would use this feature.

Hi Lin Perfect smooth pan and zoom run with my Nvidia – GeForce4 MX 4000 video card. ( 128 MB ) In version 5 early stages Igor advised me this was a borderline card for Ver. 5, however as you are aware he has done quite a lot of work with this version as to tweak for different cards Viewed at 1024 x 768 – on Pent 4 CPU – 2.4 GHz.

Hi Bob – Welcome back Ver. 5 Beta 15 Full View of File Panel - shows all images in a folder and cannot be re-arranged. You must use Full View of Slide List - then they can be moved around and locked. This was the same in 4.48

Peter An error on my part Peter - fixed - thanks for passing along. Glad to see you have narrowed the problem down.

Hi Peter I checked your zip file you posted above and it opened " Wordpad " instantly to a blank file. Would you kindly check your PM messages.

Hi Phil Clicking on a saved ver 5 (.pte) file in Windows Explorer will open ver 4.48 program but not the (.pte). Also you cannot open it by right click and selecting program .apr As Ron has stated - start up ver 5 – click file – click open and brows to your Template folder path of 4.48, to bring your presentation into ver 5 Ver 4.48 default template path is C:\Program Files\Picture To EXE\Templates Once into ver 5 you could then re-save it as a ver 5 template. There will be no problem with pan and zoom unless possibly a quality problem depending on the image size and quality used in 4.48. Version 5 beta 11A will accept all or any objects that you may have saved in 4.48, but keep in mind a drop shadow on for example an existing button will not work.

JPD HAPPY BIRTHDAY - enjoy your special day

Hi Jos - welcome to the forum Here is a quick small sample, using the white line you prefer to use. Sorry - maybe a little too thick - but could be adjusted. Done with Ver 5 beta. Two way split was used on main image for Left & Right sides, and the white line painted. I did try a 3 image using the second left and right images with less opacity. Gave a nice effect, but for some reason the second images were off set when lining up the white line? ( maybe with a little more time and effort ) Let us know if we are on the right track, and I am sure someone more advanced with ver 5 than I am will create a nice demo for you. Gate_Hawk.zip Jos - after reading your link, and viewing the flash sample. Here is another quicky using less opacity - no line. Gate_Hawk_2_Less_Opacity.zip Al's sample appears closer to the flash sample, with no distortion.

Peter Well it is a work around for now for you wanting to use Video Builder menus. I have to fully agree, and as you are aware with the WnSoft team – it just keeps getting better and better. I am sure other menu feature will be added in the future.

Hi Peter At this time until Igor gets your disc problem sorted out Peter you may want to try this. As I understand you have no problem with Media with Nero. Also you wish to use Video Builder menu’s. Create your PTE show as you would normally, start up Video Builder – create your menu. Choose “ Create DVD Folder “ – encode your files to the Video_TS folder. I am assuming you have the full suite of Nero ? – If so Insert a blank DVD. Open NERO BURNING ROM. – choose DVD Video - Bottom of the next screen choose New From the file browser widow - right side - locate and drag in your saved Video_TS folder to the left side. Top panel – choose – Burn the current compilation. ** This will burn a DVD that will play your presentation using Video Builders Menu. I am sure Igor will solve the disc problem shortly.

Tom The Lancaster used a - Rolls-Royce Merlin engine Have e-mailed you a sound clip.
