dpletts Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Hello,I accidentally added a reference to a music file for a particular slide under "Customize slide". I removed it, leaving the music section empty, but never-the-less, the music was still played at Preview. Looking at the .pte file in notepad, I noticed that the reference to the music file was still there. (I have manually changed this, since. How really convenient it is that the .pte file is plain text!)Originally I had "Synchronize music and slides" switched on, then after removing the reference to the music, I switched it off.Have I overlooked something?David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpletts Posted March 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Try removing the slide with the reference attached, then add it. Yachtsman1Thanks for that suggestion; I'll try it sometime, although I think I would rather doctor the .pte file direct. But I shouldn't have to do either of these things, should I?Cheers,David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobeefstu Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 David,What version of PTE are you using and can you consistently reproduce the issue ? Not saying this is your case ... but often users can mistakenly hit the Cancel or X button instead of the OK button when making changes or adding settings/items. Its real easy to hit the wrong buttons inadvertently. This happens to all of us on one ocassion or another.Hittng the Cancel or X buttons ignores any additions or changes you may have made.Hitting the OK button confirms and stores the changes.

dpletts Posted March 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I have been using version 6, but I was unable to reproduce the problem. So it must be me! Sorry about that.David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
