Thanks, guys - I never expected this much input! Thanks to Hawk for the sample slides. All of the above methods will work to a point. I still think in the future an option in the individual slide settings to show/hide the nav bar would be nice. That way you could use your customized button object on a particular slide if you have need for a special link. I imagine though that the nav bar settings are created by a script that has to work for the general slideshow.

^yes, very helpful options, thank you. The manual method would be my preferred way of watching slideshows as I don't like the clutter of cursors and nav buttons either. But in the particular project I am working on now I need to advance from one slide to another down the list rather than to the next slide so I don't think I can use the keyboard cues exclusively.

Wow, what a nice concise explanation on using the manual control option! I appreciate the instruction and may consider doing away with the navigation bars altogether. Any chance in future versions for Show/Hide nav bar for each slide? Many thanks, fh!

yachtsman, thanks for the quick reply and the help! I had set my navigation bar parameters in Project Options. There are some slides for a particular reason I do not want to show the navigation buttons on the bottom of the screen. I tried stretching the frame way out but it does not hide the button and my image gets stretched too big. I wish that each slide had the option to show or hide the navigation buttons. I may have to just design the buttons outside of PTE and frame a link on each slide. Thanks again! Dave

Is there a way to hide the navigation icons on some slides and keep them on others? Thanx!
