Ian Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Hi DennisI've included a Powerpoint show inside a PTE show at a tutorial earlier in the year. Its pretty seamless if you have the same background image in the Powerpoint show as in the PTE one.Make your Powerpoint show and save it as a .pps file, and in the Powerpoint options disable the "black screen at end of presentation". This means that when the Powerpoint file quits you'll return to the PTE show without a break.In your PTE show, include an Object that will link to the Powerpoint file (use PTE's Object Editor)Save the PTE exe and .pps file in the same folder.Run the PTE exe, and when you get to the page with the Object, click it to run the Powerpoint file on top of the PTE show. This is a very easy and convenient way of including moving text and graphics in a PTE show.Alternatively if you don't want to click an Object to start the Powerpoint file, you could set it to start when the PTE show quits.Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
