Random slide order

[Jimbo]

I have a slide list of almost 300 pics that I want to make play in random order--EXCEPT for the first slide and the last slide. Is this possible and am I just missing the simple control for it? As it stands now it seems to be an all-or-nothing affair. Also, would it possible to have a show where you could select the random play option BUT still have the show synched to the music length? One option now cancels the other out. It sounds like it would work if the program would only play each slide once (i.e. not repeat any slide so as not to increase the pre-determined running time.)

Meanwhile I love the new version! PTE streaks ahead of the pack once again.

Thanks for interesting ideas! These very simple features can be added the next version.

Also, regarding the random feature --

Is it possible to take files from the file panel, put them into random order when you first build the slide show, but keeping that order each time the slide show is run?

I can remember once when it took me over 3 weeks to get a simple answer out of Roxio concerning some thing or other about their software....Igor takes less than 3 hours AND solves the problem. Just as soon as Bill Gates saves enough money to retire I would like to nominate Igor for his old job.
