Many thanks Dave. What a boon the forum is. Happy New Year Mike

I guess this has been asked many times before but I am a realatively new boy to PTE. Is there anyway to play a full screen preview from a pre determined point. I know it can be done in the sync window but need to see a larger image for a tricky bit of dissolving.

Thanks Maureen Will Do. As Al has mentioned I can drag onto another monitor but cannot work on the main window without closing the Sync window ------- Pity. Thanks Ken I will give that one a go.

Is there anyway that the slide number can be shown under the slide in the construction window. By this I mean the one we drag slides into when assembling a show. I find it irritating when in the synchronisation window trying to relate a slide number to the actual thumb nail image. It would also be helpful to be able to return to the main view window without having to close the synchronisation window. Is it possible to drag the Sync window onto another monitor if one has a dual monitor card?

Thanks Ron. Have managed to get the effect I was after. Great thing this forum especially as I am at last moving away from Pro Show To PTE.

Many thanks Jeff I will give it a go. Mike

I have seen a very soft left to right wipe with no hard edges which I am trying without success to replicate. Can anybody suggest the settings and fade type I should be using.

Does anybody know of a way that one can print a list of the slides used in a sequence?

Thanks Al My files are about 600 to 700 k and I have three or four dissolves in a second. I will try reducing the file sizes. Mike

I am running version 4.20 beta 5. A sequence played in the Customise Synchronisation window runs perfectly when I hit the play button but when I hit Preview it stutters and will not snyc properly. I have tried using the Create button but this still gives a faulty version. An Exe file on Cd also runs defectively. Has anybody any bright ideas as to what is going wrong? I am working on a lap top running Windows XP(home) with 20Gig Hard Drive and 256mb of Ram. The graphics is an ATI Mobility 16mb.

Is it possible to maintain the zoom on the sync window? Every time I replay a section of my sequence the window defaults to it original setting and I want to go in close all the time at the moment. Is it also possible to save from the Sync Window? It seems a bit of a fuss to have to close the Sync and the Options windows before one can save. What is the Update button for on the sync window? Nothing seems to happen when I hit it.

Thanks Den Never too old to learn Mike

Only just begining to play with PTE. Need to synchro numerous slides to the music. How do I get the Play in the synchro screen to play from a timed point rather than the begining. The music is driving me mad. I am happy with how one moves the slides about relative to the music but every time I hit play or preview it starts from the begining.

Have any users of Cool Edit pro discovered how to save files in Mpeg format? The programme does not seem to offer this in the Pro version. Is there any other format that works well with PTE. I find that Wav files are too bit and cause problems.
