Show lost my frames (solved)

[smithrg]

Hi PTE Friends, I have a problem with a show, which I recently made, using PTE v.8.04.

I constructed the show, this way:

1. I inserted 1920 x 1080 blank slides.

2. I inserted frame to these blanks slides. (Using Dave Gee’s suggestion for DVD construction later)

3. I then added my background to these frames.

4. I then added my photos to the background.

Number 3 and 4 are children of the frame.

I finished building the show, adding, moving, and revising some of the slides.

I later noticed, the frames were all gone, my background, with my photos, were now in the blank

slides, not children of the frames.

Where did the frames go? I didn’t intentionally remove them.

Did I not construct the show correctly?

Anyone have this happen to them?

Best regards, Robert

Hi Robert,

I have no idea where your frames went but you don't need them.

Just drag the BG image into the Slide List as a Main Object (multiple times).

Then add your Objects/Images to the BG Image.

That way you can reduce the size of the Main Image later to whatever percentage you require and everything else will be reduced to the same %.

I think that's what I said??

Dave, of course you are correct, I don't know where I got that frame idea.

Thank you, Robert

Added later:

I tagged as solved, but I still don't know what happened to the frames.

Dave Gee has put me back on track, thanks.
