4.7Slide Shows

Slide shows can be added to your movie as separate chapters. Double-clicking the respective chapter button lets you edit an existing slide show. To start creating a slide show, make sure you are in the Media tab of the Create module and click the "Create Slideshow" button below the preview area.

Choose Photos

Gather photos for your slide show by clicking "Add Photos." Browse through your system and pick the images you want to use.

If you have a scanner or digital camera and wish to download images, use the "Acquire Photos" button. Depending on the hardware you have connected, choose either TWAIN or WIA, and follow the instructions to capture your images.

Arrange Photos

Click and drag the photos to arrange them in the order you want. You can also right-click photos and cut/copy/paste them to change the order or add duplicate slides.

Orient Photos

If a photo needs to be rotated, select it (by clicking it), and then click the appropriate rotate button until the photo is oriented correctly.

Insert Blank Slides

Click the button to add a blank slide anywhere in your slide show. Blank slides are great to serve as breaks or title pages (adding text is described below). Change the background color of any slide by right-clicking it and selecting "Background Color." You have the option of applying the color you select to all slides.

Enhance Photos

Each slide can be edited in a variety of ways. Select a slide, then click "Edit Photo." See Section 3.5 for more information.
