I have overseas visitors staying with me right now, so I don't have so much time on my hands at the moment, but I tried with two already made projects and the copy and paste from the O&A screen seems to work fine. As soon as time permits I will try again, but it looks like you have a good solution there, many thanks

I have also experienced this using the wait for a key press, but like you I cannot pin down the cause or repeat it to be able to report it. The errors I experience was also slightly different to what you post above . It was a small square window with an frame error message. Sometimes when I try to go backwards in the slide show using the keys, I get a black screen and have to exit and go back to the slide I was on

Ok thanks

If you use Audacity, try opening the music tracks and saving then through Audacity. That might do it

Try making an Mp4 with a different project. Make a test project with just 6 images and see if you can create an Mp4. If it does, then perhaps there is something in the other project that sticks at 6%. Perhaps a sound fault issue, but just a guess. You could also try a new install of PTE-9, it's not a long process and make sure you have the latest version from HERE - It's the Try it Free button and a fresh install will remember your product key

I have had a need recently to copy text out of the PicturesToExe O&A screen into my word program, but only the first line copies out. If this is easy to accomodate, could it be considered please

JEB My excuse is I was answering on the iPad and did think of firing up the PC to check, but my beer might have warmed up

JEB I suspect you do mean the Time Line and yes there is a tab on each thumbnail that will allow you to change the position or even change the running order. I do my PTE work almost exclusively in the Time Line these days, but I have no idea why you don't see the same tag I do. It's never been something you have to turn on.

Ok, no worries

I was working tonight on a Powerpoint type presentation using PTE with a lot of slides, but no music. Its set up for keyboard operation. I adjusted some text with PTE 9.0.12 and saved the project. The attached error message appeared when I went to publish a show for PC and overwrite the previous exe. The only way I could stop this error message appearing was to re-boot my PC. The save of the project file was fine. It's only happened this one time and I have been working on this project for 2 weeks on and off at least. The only difference is, this morning I installed the test version 9.0.12 Windows 7

I tried it on the same project that I found it and all is well. The cursor stays where I place it Many thanks

Yes I did minimise what you requested, but we all can't think alike can we. I think there are much bigger fish to fry.

Gary Mate, you're too touchy by half, relax a bit.

Is it really a high priority to have software designed to fix a mistake? Use the workaround and shoot the video up the right way next time

It's working OK now, thanks

I think that is an important point. Slide Styles also need subcategories as I have suggested before. Already mine are becoming a bit of a mess and I am fairly organised as a rule.

For speed today I went to use a PTE slide styles to create a caption. I started a new project with a Ctrl+S blank. Then tried to apply a title using the slide style > Captions and Selected either Blank - Caption Pan or Zoom. Going to the Caption panel under the options I typed the title I wanted, but it still showed Your Caption Here on the blank slide

Great Many thanks

Thank you for all the comments, but it does leave things a little up in the air. As soon as as I get a chance I will try the same project on another W7 computer and a W10 I am not sure it's right though. Never noticed this prior to PTE 9 and W7 is hardly obsolete, yet

I am using PTE in the way we would have used Powerpoint in the past and from time to time I want to go back into already created text on a slide and make an adjustment to that text. Let's assume there are a couple of lines of text and I want to add a word at the very start of the text. I click to place the cursor in that precise place, but the cursor jumps to a different position. it does not remain where I have placed it and I have to return to the text box and move the cursor again. Windows 7 - PTE 9.0.11 Does anyone else see this effect

Thank you
