Thank you so much for your quick response - it was a case of 'couldn't see the wood for the trees'. Very many thanks - Nettleton.

Good morning. It's been a while since I last used P2E. I have installed 7.5.10 but cannot find out how to keep the last slide on the screen at the end of the slideshow. I've tried searching but unsuccessfully. Could someone enlighten me please? Many thanks - Nettleton

Xaver and Lin - Horrified to realise I had not responded to your replies! Please accept my apologies and thank you both very much for your responses. Nettleton

Have tried searching for how to do this without success. At the moment I have pictures to exe open twice, the one with the slide I want to copy is slightly minimised. I left click the slide I want to copy then right click on 'copy' on the first version, I then move the cursor over to the version I want to copy to, left click where I want to paste and right click to paste. Nothing happens. Could someone please tell me where I'm going wrong? Many thanks - Nettleton

Help much appreciated - Thank you.

I've made a slideshow and each slide is numbered at centre top. I now need to remove the numbers and I can't remember how to do it!! I have searched 'Help' but not found anything. Could someone help please? Many thanks - Nettleton.

Didn't see the original slideshow but LOVED this one - very well presented, great music and lovely photos. Thank you for sharing. Nettleton

Aha! I realise the error of my ways! I was trying the space bar and the arrows on a Preview! Many thanks for your swift reply. Nettleton

I cannot control my slideshow, through Project Options, Advanced, by using the keyboard ie if I press the space bar it doesn't pause, if I press right or left arrows nothing happens. Can you tell me what I might not be doing properly please? Many thanks - Nettleton

Hi Dan In version 6.5 one can hold down the shift key when having the cursor over the rectangle top and side grab handles and make the rectangle narrower, wider, higher or lower without the rectangle changing shape/size proportionately. However, if you hold down the shift key when holding the cursor over the CORNER rectable grab handles, then it STILL changes the size proportionately but does not keep the rectangle in the middle of the screen. Hope this helps - Nettleton.

Today I reopened the slideshow, saved as another title, closed PTE, reopened 'another title', removed music from first slide, checked all slides working properly, put music into 'Music', 'Project Options' and BINGO preview worked with sound and created a slideshow with sound!!!! As long as it works properly I'm only mildly curious as to why there was a glitch!!!! Thanks for the suggestions. PS The gin and tonic worked wonders, nearly time for another !! Nettleton

Thank you for your suggestions, I'll try them out tomorrow - I feel like it's gin and tonic time now after working with PTE for most of the day!!!!

Hi Peter, JRR and Dan. Thanks for your responses. Checked security updates had not been downloaded whilst using PTE. However, before I lost the sound, I had actually created an exe file but the timings were slightly out between slides and sound when played back. Before deciding to close the computer down and reboot, I moved the music from 'Project Options' and included it in my first slide under 'Customise Slide' - it is now working with sound with 'Preview' and has created an exe with sound too! So, maybe its partly a computer glitch but more likely me not understanding totally how P2E works!! Thanks - Nettleton

Hi there Have just completed a 56 slide show. When viewing on the 'small' screen the slideshow plays with music. When viewed with 'Preview' there isn't any sound. I 'Created' a file and that doesn't play with any sound either. I have placed my music under 'Music' in 'Project Options' and made sure that I haven't inadvertently added music to any individual slides. I do not have 'synchronise music and slides' ticked. My frustration is that when I played the 'Preview' earlier this morning, I had sound but since I have changed some slide timings, I have lost sound on 'Preview'. I have checked everything in Project Options and cannot see anything amiss. I am using version De Luxe 5.5. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Nettleton.

Peter - I have ALWAYS had to reopen the registration key when running a new version of P2E and so supposed that everyone else had to too! Nobeefstu - How do I check my user/administrator settings and privileges please? I assume I would have made the original installation of the Pte program registration available only for the adminstrator (ie me) even though I share the pc with one other. I am the only user of P2E. Interested in comments from both of you. Nettleton
