Index of Main object [SOLVED]

[Jean-Cyprien]

Hi,

In a view, I have pictures with Main object indexes.

If I copy and paste the (entire) view the index are kept.

But if I copy the files (of the pictures, or of the frame containing picture's files) and paste them in an other view, the indexes are lost. They were kept with PTE 8.

PTE 9.0.11  Windows 7

Thanks

Jean-Cyprien,

I apologize for this stupid problem! We'll fix it quickly. This bug appeared in one of recent updates.

Thanks!

Hi Igor,

Don't apologize for this very small problem, you have done so much to improve the O&A window, terribly easier to use !

Thanks so much !

Jean-Cyprien,

Thanks,  please try an updated test version (v9.0.12 BETA):

Does it fix this problem?

Hi Igor,

There is now indexes, yes, but not the original ones. (The new indexes are 1 2 3 4 5...)

[Igor]

If I insert copied main image (1) to a blank slide (without any main images) I get main image index: 1.

If copy main image with index 2 after pasting it to a blank slide the image becomes with index 1. Do you mean this problem?

[Jean-Cyprien]

No, what I do is this : for exemple I put in a frame six pictures, with the following indexes : 1   5   7   14   17   25

(Those numbers because I have a lot of other Main objects in this slide.)

After copying the frame in a blank slide, the indexes become  6  5  4  3  2  1

Jean-Cyprien,

OK, I understood now.

How important to keep original indexes?

[Jean-Cyprien]

Importance of original indexes :

In the frame N°1 I have several files with the index X  (for exemple the right pages of a book)

In the frame N°2 I have also several files with the same index X  (the left sides of the book)

And also in other frames (a page moving from the right side to left side...) the same files with the index X

Of course, after coying the files in a new slide, it is possible to change the files of index 1 (previously X)  then those of index 2 (previously X)  then 3 (previously X)  with the same file (blue page, or white page, or...) but by laziness, it's easier to do this just one time with just one index : the original X index.

Note that if I copy several files with the same index X, all those files will have the same new index, 7 for exemple --  BUT only for the files that were copied in just one time. If I copy later other files with the previous X index, their new index will not be the same 7, but an other one (not used previously in the new view).

 

Because it is possible to change a file for all those which have the same index number. And this is a great possibility I use frequently !

Hi Jean-Cyprien,

Thanks, I've understood.

Hi Jean-Cyprien,

Please try the updated version:

http://files.wnsoft.com/test/picturestoexe-setup.exe

Does it work as you expect with main image indexes?

[Jean-Cyprien]

HI Igor,

YES, it works as " I " expect ! That is also, as PTE8 worked, and - as you have noted - as the first versions of PTE9 worked (for exemple 9.0.5)

Thanks very much ! (A lot of time saved for me !)

 

[Igor]

I'm glad! Thanks for the confirmation.
