Making a Slide Prsenation

Hi Everyone,
I have created a slide presentation in Flash CS4 using AS3. I have created two buttons at the bottom of the stage and set actionscript to go to next slide and previous slide. This works OK until I go back through the slide show, and then when I want to go forward the button will not work.
If some one can help me or give some where I can find an example of a slide show working I would appreciate it.
Many thanks
Neil451

Hi Ned
here is the code I am using to get the left and right buttons working.
function backframe(event:MouseEvent):void
this.prevFrame()
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, backframe);
function nextframe(event:MouseEvent):void
this.nextFrame()
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextframe);
Thanks

**Adding different text to each photo before making a slide show.

And the top of the day to you,
Is there a way to add different text to each photo before making a slide show? I know you can do this in PS4 but it is not very easy. Any ideas?
Al

Use the Caption metadata to add slide text then click the ABC icon in the slideshow module, followed by clicking the up/down icon, then choose Edit. Insert the Caption option from the IPTC Data box.

Making A Slide Show To Burn To A DVD

His I just started using photshop elemnents 13 from a previous 11 version.
In the past I picked some 300 slides to make a slide show with music and then exported it to a WMV and then imported the WMV into premiere elements and burned a DVD. In phtoshop elements when I selected my slide and created a slide show I could choose how many seconds each slide, the color of the borders, the manner in which slide changed and I used random.
You could then do zoom in or out, make extra slide with information, add music and then save and export to a WMV and then import that into premiere elements and then burn a DVD.

Reason I thought PSE4 would burn to a DVD is, there is a button in the slide show screen that says "burn to DVD" in the PSE4 book we were reading.
If Premiere Elements 2 were also installed with Photoshop Elements 4, then it was possible to burn to DVD from the PSE 4 slide show editor by using Premiere Elements 2. Not all writing on that workflow made it obvious that the Premiere Elements software was required.
Would I be better off getting a different program for making slide shows? The pictures I'm trying to make into a slide show are from a 90th birthday party I shoot over the weekend and want to give out copies of a DVD to the guest.
Option 1
If you have already made a slide show in the Photoshop Elements slide show editor, then you might as well do some investigation of the alternatives.
-- What Windows operating system are you running ? If it includes Windows DVD Maker, then I would give that a try. Write your output of the slide show from PSE to a File - WMV - with Size of DVD,NTSC (or DVD,PAL if your TV is PAL format). Then use that WMV file as input to Windows DVD Maker.
-- If you don't have Windows DVD Maker then you could investigate whatever DVD software came with your PC.
FYI - One warning about the photo files that you use in that PSE slide show. If you use hundreds of high resolution photo files, then PSE can have problems. If your output will NOT be High Def (and yours probably will not be since you mentioned a DVD) then "downsizing" the photo files to approx 1000x 750 pixels will decrease the probablility of your having problems with the slide show.
Option 2
If you have not yet started the PSE slide show, then you might consider a program that many people like for slide shows ----- ProShow Gold from Photodex. It does have a trial.

Are there any step-by-step directions for making a slide show with music on iDVD?

I once knew how to do this, but lost my directions (from a friend) in make a slide show using iDVD. Where could I download the steps for making a DVD that I could play on my DVD player and view on my TV monitor.?

I will try this. I did go to help, but did not click on that subject. Actually, all of a sudden it worked, except that the music I choose did not work. So, I will work on this later. Thanks for the suggestion.

Where is the frame rate setting control when making a slide show?

I am trying to make a slide show using QuickTime Pro and cannot find the frame rate control.I put all my consectively-numbered jpegs in one folder. I then clicked on "File," the "Open Image Sequence," then a window opened up and I click on the first jpeg in the series of photos I want in my slide show. Then the first image appears in the QT Window. The instructions next say that I should be able to change the rate at which each slide/jpeg appears, but it doesn't tell you where to find the "frame rate" so I can change it. It doesn't appear at all on its own, so where is it? Anything else I'm missing? Thank you.

What version of Photoshop Elements and or Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system?
In addition, could you please clarify?
It sounds like you are creating your slideshow in the Elements Organizer. Where are you seeing these distortions and blurs, in the Elements Organizer Slideshow Editor Filmstrip or in the Premiere Elements workspace after you have transferred the slideshow from the Elements Organizer 9 Slideshow Editor to Premiere Elements workspace?
What are the pixel dimensions of the photos in this slideshow and how many of these photos are in the slideshow? What format are they in..jpg, psd, other?
With regard to what you wrote:
Also how do I transport them from Elements to Premier, it has a tab to do that but when I get to the elements file I don't know where to drag and drop into.
If you are in the Elements Organizer Slideshow Editor and use the Output option Edit with Premiere Elements, then you would expect the automatic transfer of the slideshow to Premiere Elements, with a copy in video format (.psess) in the project media as well as on the Timeline. Nothing for you to drag and drop.
For all those reasons, I am asking for clarification.
Thanks.

Making Quicktime slide shows (videos) with Windows

Hello. With the Mac platform, I am able to use my photo program, iPhoto, export photos from it and make a Quicktime slide show (video, with accompanying music from my music program, iTunes. Is this also possible with Windows, ie: where would the 'Export' command be and how would music be integrated into it? Any other helpful comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

You can open many different audio and image formats with the Windows version of QuickTime Pro. To assemble a slide show of still images you could open a folder of liked sized, sequentially named images and add that new file "scaled" to the audio track.
You could also open the audio track and "add scaled to selection" your individual image files. This method would allow you set the duration of each slide to different values but would limit your show to 98 images (99 track limit).
This method could also use different image dimensions, different "offsets", transparency "blends" and mask layers. Depending on your intended distribution format you could make HD sized QuickTime movies with multiple images displaying simultaneously (Brady Bunch style).
One of my older QuickTime files made using still images:

Making a slide show with iPhoto

How do I control the speed of my slideshow? I want to change each slide individually, myself, without the computer automatically changing each slide?

With iMovie you can have different transitions (22 to choose from) in the same movie/slideshow, a variety of titles, subtitles and animated titles, special effects and the same themes as in iPhoto. In iPhoto there's only one transition per slideshow, only simple photo titles or comments can be displayed in one corner.
You can import photos into iMovie via the Media Browser the same as you would select an album in iPhoto to create a slideshow. Take a set of about 20 photos and try creating a slideshow in each app to see which you like best.

When making Question Slides, the "Your Score" screen has a CONTINUE button on it but it doesn't continue

I can't remove it. I can't change it so it moves the user
forward to the next slide. I can't insert a new button. I might
lose my mind. Any suggestions?

Hi jwcrews and I too welcome to our community
Hopefully Andrew won't mind my offering up something here.
My last Captivate class had a student that reported her
project was behaving in a similar manner. Additionally, I've seen
other posts here that suggest the same thing. Multiple clicks to
continue, etc.
Does your results slide contain audio? If so, what we found
as a potential issue with my student was that the Continue button
waited for the audio to complete before moving on.
If your results slide has no audio, one way to try and
overcome the long wait is by positioning the mouse pointer over the
pause point. Wait until the pointer changes to the left/right arrow
(indicating you may click and drag) and adjust the pause to perhaps
.2 seconds. Then drag the duration of the results slide to perhaps
.4 seconds.
If your results slide does contain audio, one possible
workaround would be to create a totally new blank Captivate
project. Size it to the minimum size. I believe that would be 100 x
100 pixels. Add the audio to that and publish as a .SWF. Then drop
the .SWF into your results slide (Insert > Animation...). I'm
thinking this would somewhat abstract the audio from the timeline
of the Results and possibly overcome the timing issue.
Please keep us posted on what you find! Also, I again offer
apologies to Andrew for my unsolicited intrusion in the thread.
Sincerely... Rick

I accidentally hit replace instead of save while making a slide show is there any way to retrieve it?

I Made a slide show in keynote, instead of hitting save I hit replace is there anyway to retrieve it?

Keynote doesn't run on Classic operating systems. You may be able to use one of these data recovery software to recover it.
What were you replacing?
My data has become inaccessible, and I don't have a backup!

Making Title Slides??

I want to create a title slide to begin my slideshow in iPhoto. How can I place text on top of a photo or even on a blank "slide"?

Kitty
You cannot do this in iPhoto. You need to make the slide in another app and then import it to iPhoto.
One way to do this is to create the text in, say, Pages and then go File -> Print In the Print dialogue you click on the pdf button and select 'Save Pdf to iPhoto'.

MAking Title slides for a slideshow

How do I create title slides with text to place in between elements of my slideshow? I visited several islands recently and I want a title slide on which I can type the name of the particular island. I can't find out how to do it in I photo and I can figure out how to do it in IDVD 08. What gives?

You can use a word processing document to create the slide you want and then save as a PDF to iPhoto. Applications such as Pages or Keynote (if you have them) can also be used to create slides. They also can be saved in a format which can be imported into iPhoto.

How do I correct distortions when making a slide show?

When I take clear and distinct pictures from my picture files and put them in a slide show with music the pictures become distorted and blurry. These are generally good quality and print up fine.
Also how do I transport them from Elements to Premier, it has a tab to do that but when I get to the elements file I don't know where to drag and drop into.

Im making a slide show on Aperature and Im trying to figure out how to add music to it. Does anyone know how to do this?

I need to add music to my slideshow on aperature, can anyone help me with this?
Thanks.

There are basically two methods to add music to a slideshow.
The first method, that Frank Caggiano described, will let you set a background sound track, that will play during the whole show. You will see your background clip fill the filmstrip with a green shadow.
A second method is, to drag short sound clips directly onto single slides - this will let you add special sound effects at certain moments and will result in secondary audio tracks, that you can adjust in length. These secondary tracks are displayed as thin bars below the slides. (a screenshot from the User manual)
See this section in the user manual for more detail:

PLS HELP...making a slide show to VCD

good day. i just arrived from europe and now i have around 700 pics. i plan to make a vcd of all these pics with a song so that when i present it, it would become more lively. is there anyway where in i can insert text, fix the transition of slides, insert a couple of songs and burn this project into vcd format? please help... i plan to show all these pictures to my family during a special occassion. can i do this with i movie or straight from iphoto? is it difficult? my friend told me that it is very easy... please help...

Hi,
since you mentioned iMovie I assume you're talking about a DVD with slideshows, not a VCD?
You can create a slideshow with music and transitions in iPhoto and then export them to iDVD by selecting Share->Send to iDVD.
There is also a lot of stuff in the help of iPhoto and iDVD that can help you....
HTH,
Koinseb
