Thank you! And I hardly imagine development of such complex product without your help! It just impossible.

Thanks Igor & all the members of the PTE development team,

for a fantastic tool that brings so much pleasure to so many users.

BRAVO IGOR POUR CE NOUVEAU TOUR DE FORCE

IGOR BRAVO FOR THE NEW TOWER OF STRENGTH

You deserve a good rest and we thank you for this wonderful work.

My compliments

[birdsasart]

I am desperate so am posting this here as well as in the Forum in hopes that somebody can help.

I have created a slide show and saved the slides in a file named LENSESSILDES

When I try to create the .exe file and name it LENSESTORUN, it creates an executable file. The huge problem is that the show that it saves is the PREVIOUS VERSION of the show that I saved a few days ago. I have tried 50 times. I am saving to the right directory after deleting the previous version. I have tried renaming it, saving it to a different location, ect. To no avail.

The same thing was happening with V5.6 so I upgraded to 6.0 and was amazed to see that it did the same thing. I have re-booted.

Also, when I hit Preview it shows the old show not the slides in the order that I have saved them and the order that I see when I hit F4 to toggle back and forth...

Am I nuts???? II do not think so.

Please help as I need to create three big slide shows in the next day or so.

Also, I am running windows 64-bit Vista BUT, I created a new program last week just as I always do and did and it worked...

To Igor and the complete Wnsoft team. Thank you (спасибо) for all your effort in advancing such a great product! Bill

Well done, Igor and the team. Great stuff.

I am just a tad worried about all the resting and vacations that are being encouraged here. Take a quick break and then tackle that 'to do' list!

Jeff

[pisolomau]

Great job, thanks to Igor and team!

And now.... I'm waiting for a version of PTE for Mac!!

[Guest Yachtsman1]

I said I wouldn't go any further than 5.6 when my hardware started to protest. However the lure of being able to see text styles has drawn me in & I've down loaded 6. Can anyone suggest a couple of animation tasks in the new features to try to test if my equipment can cope. KIS.

[8321]

Lin posted the .pte file for his crittercube. That would be a good start.

Jeff

[Guest Yachtsman1]

Hi 8321

Tried the crittercube & all was well, however I'm not convinced it is a complete stress tester testing my whole system. IMHO something with music would be a better guide, as we know music absorbs a substantial amount of resource. Good start anyway.

I just want to add my own congratulations to Igor and his team.

Version 6 has been a version of many beta's but now that the 'Final Release' has been published

I know that many people around the world will be very grateful to have such an excellent product.

This software is now the best of the rest and I doubt very much if any other company can match its quality.

Well Done!

Hi, I am new to this product. I bought the new v6 online a few days ago but when it came to downloading it, it turned out to be a v5.6.4. How do I upgrade this program to a v6? Thanks.
