does anyone know why the zip backup option does not work for what i am assuming are large projects. i dont have a problem for small shows but when the show is of largeish size it does not produce a useable zip file. thanks in advance

thanks for response Macian, yes am altering slide duration now even though process is a bit laborious. i am an ex proshow user which had some very useful features for this type of thing.

i was wondering if i was not seeing something obvious, but the question i have is why does the overall time of my slide show increase when i decrease the transition times. i wanted to reduce the overall time of my show containing nearly 200 slides by selecting all slides with control a and then reducing the transition time but this increased the overall time. am i doing something obviously silly???? thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks to everyone that responded to my qeery, i shall be making good use of all three responses especially the "cheat" from Jean-Cyprean.

does anybody know how to create the effect of the photo behaving like a book page and turning with a curl effect to reveal the next photo. i know this can be done using transitions but this effect is applied to the whole screen, i want to apply it to a picture in picture so that i can create a show with the effect of a book on a background of a desk having its pages turned.

Thanks everyone with my rotation problem. Jienense's solution was just what i was trying to achieve. I did come up with another solution myself which involved using a frame with the two images as children which worked well but which was a tiny bit more involved than Jiense's method and took me all night to come up with. This is all new to me and was supposed to be my relaxing retirement thing, I lost a whole nights sleep trying to find the solution to my problem hopefully i will get some sleep tonight. thanks again everyone that chipped in. Sorry i didnt respond earlier but was limited to 4 posts in a single day.

thanks for your answer Jill but that does not work either. what i am trying to do is have what looks like a postcard rotate through 180 degrees to show the first side and then the second side. This takes place at a reduced zoom of 60% in the corner of the screen. i cannot get the first image to dissapear at the exact time the second image appears

thanks for answering Jean-Cyprien but it is not the answer im afraid. what i want to do is rotatate an image that has been panned so it is no longer in the centre of the screen, as it goes over 90 degrees i want another image to appear as if on the reverse side as if you are rotating a double sided postcard. it is very easy to do if images are in the centre of the screen but not when off centre.

hi, i am completely new to pte av and also forums but here goes in the hope of a solution. my question is this...... how do i rotate an image that is not in the centre of the screen to 90 degrees so that it is not visible. if the image is in the centre of the screen i dont have a problem, i can rotate it to 90 degrees an it dissapears without any problem. however when i move the image from the centre it begins to appear again. very frustrating, someone please help.
