I can add audio to a slide by adding video to slide. The video was created in PTE and is black 640x480. I can make the video transparent or set the order so the video is in background. The problem is when I save it as a style and then try to apply the style to other slides the video sometimes turns from black to green and there is no audio. Not bad enough to be a bug but it would be nice if we can use video and audio in slide styles. Thanks, Tom

Hi Dave, Very nice slideshow. Merry Christmas, Tom

Hi Dave, Feel free to improve any of my styles. You can do things with PTE transitions and styles that are amazing. Mine are just POC (proof of concept) and FF (for fun). Thanks, Tom

Cool. I renamed the .ptestyle to .zip and I could see the data. Thanks! Tom

Dave, Can I use images in styles and share with others? I thought I might be able to make the miter with a mask but I could not figure out how to do it. I don't know what a .ptestyle file contains. Is it like a zip and it can images/sounds? I don't anything about Styles, just playing around. Thanks, Tom

Hi Lin, I don't follow the French forum but I know they invented diaporamas. Amazing slideshows. Can't stop playing with Slide Styles. Too much fun. Simple Red Curtains. 16:9 ratio. One or more slides. Red_Curtains.ptestyle Tom

Simple Metal frame. 16:9 ratio. One or more slides. Uses mask instead of image resize. I could not figure out how to miter the corners so I added squares instead. Metal_Frame.ptestyle Tom

Most of my custom created styles are very simple without key frames. After applying my style I have to reset the duration of the slide back to the original duration (example is a video slide). I click on the full duration link before applying the style but it does not change duration. I don't know how to set the style duration equal to the duration of the slide. Maybe add new option for style duration to be equal to duration of slide when creating style (unless there is already some way to set this). Thanks, Tom

Hi Roel, While waiting you can do almost the same thing by sorting the files (after adding your desired metadata columns) in Windows Explorer (outside of PTE), selecting the files you wish to use, and then clicking and dragging the files into the PTE slide timeline. They should stay in the same order you used for sorting. http://www.picturest...post__p__114475 Tom -
Simple countdown leader to be placed before a video slide. Select one slide and apply style. Not as realistic as the old movie countdown trailers.

Eric/Lin, You will want to do a custom (advanced) install and delete the partition. Make sure you do a full format and not just a quick format. http://www.sevenforu...-7-a.html?ltr=C If you have financial or medical records you want to make sure are not readable by somebody else then you can use DBAN. http://www.dban.org/ And if you are really paranoid you do what google does. http://youtu.be/TQoKFovvigI?t=1m45s Comparing the IBM type M buckling spring keyboard to other keyboards is like comparing Stradivarius to other violins. Great for programmers and sysadmins. Tom

Hi Eric, Makes me want to buy a new PC. Do you have a battery backup UPS for your desktop PC? Not needed for laptops but a good idea for desktops. I have a Cyberpower 1350. http://lifehacker.com/most-popular-battery-backup-ups-unit-cyberpower-1350-1467352240 Recently I purchased a new keyboard for my PC. It is a replica of the original IBM M keyboard. It makes a loud clicking sound but I never want to use a cheap keyboard again. http://pckeyboard.com/page/category/UKBD Tom

My knowledge of PTE is based upon a few hours each week during the evenings and weekends. It's just a hobby in my spare time. Does PTE support hidden surface removal? If yes how is it enabled? I tried show front side and show back side options. I think it must already support this because there a so many slideshows that work properly. Examples are a cube and the very excellent first person perspective Christmas village (sorry I don't have the link). http://en.wikipedia....e_determination http://en.wikipedia....r%27s_algorithm http://en.wikipedia....iki/Z-buffering Microsoft API http://msdn.microsof...6(v=vs.85).aspx Sample slideshow. I think the red object would be hidden depending on location. https://dl.dropboxus...bject_order.zip Thanks, Tom

The OS should have the drivers pre-installed on a custom built PC. A long time ago it was fun to build my own PCs but I lost interest since I usually didn't save money. Hope it's a minor problem. It should be a very fast PC and PTE should run great. Tom

Trying to learn about styles. Simple 1 slide style of spiral. I think styles are a very powerful feature with much future potential. Spiral-1.ptestyle Tom

Hi Eric, I can't believe it takes 10+ days to build and ship a PC in England. In the US you can order and receive a PC in a couple of days (Dell/HP/Lenovo/...). They must build them and "burn them in" (heat room) for a few days before shipping. Tom

Hi Eric, Short of reformatting drive and installing Windows you might try this fix it program from Microsoft. http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/ Hope you get your new desktop PC soon. Tom
