New marker in slide to goto selected slide without key or mouse action

[Jim Higgins]

Hi I've been making tutorials and slideshows for some time now but one thing I've not been able to do is collect a number of tutorials in the AVI format into the one show and have the show go back to the menu at the end of each AVI clip. So far i have been copying the MENU slide inbetween each AVI clip. I think a "marker" similar to the "action on mouseclick" that can be embeded in a slide at the end so as to send the program to another slide or action, such as sound effect, automatically.

Objects and Animation Screen - Common Tab - Go to Slide With Name...

Or are you saying you would like the above as an automated feature without operator intervention?

A work-around for this is "Project Options" "Advanced Tab" - Run Application Or Slideshow on Exit - then create your menu as a separate executable show and call it....

Hi Trikerjim

I made this tutorial some time ago on menu construction, it used an early version of PTE8 & should point you in the right direction.

Hi Again Triker Jim

I just checked the tutorial I pointed you to & realised the information you are looking for was in earlier tutorials which I made using PTE7, however the basic construction is virtually the same. So I have attached 3 tutorials which I believe are more relevant to what you want. The third one has only appeared as a link, just click that for the tutorial to open.
