thank you davegee, I completely understand now

I make a textbox using the tab object & animation. Thereafter by clicking on the "T" in the taskbar above. In that way text and image always seems to be a parent/child ? How to avoid this ?

the comment above was a great help and now I understand the relationship between the zoom factor versus multiple lines of text. However the problem remains if you have zoomed out the image itself beforehand. Why can't you - like in other image processing programs - simply specify a font size that always remains the same regardless of the number of text lines and regardless of whether or not you zoom out the underlaying image.

thanks everybody for your help. Especially the explanation about multiple lines of text in relation to the zoom factor (see the link given by davegee) clears up my problem.

I am looking for a solution for a problem I encounter when adding text to my pictures. when I use two separate textboxes on the same photo I find it very difficult to manually give them both the same fontsize by expanding or reducing the textbox. I also wonder how to apply the same size to the other pictures. Inserting the same value in the tab 'animation/zoom' does not work. example below both have zoom factor 12 but fonts have different sizes?!? Why can't I just give a fontsize in the tab properties in the same way as I do for "name","fontname","line spacing"..... ?

jt49 yes indeed that is already a great help

When I adjust the duration of a slide the audio tracks also needs re-adjustment. At this moment I treat all corresponding audio files one by one. Is there a way to select multiple audio files at the same time in order to move them all together to the right place in one move ? thank you in advance KS
