Help with panorama pictures in slideshow

[geneluck]

I am using PTE v10 to create slide shows. Searching the forums,  I cannot find an introductory post for how to add a simple panorama picture (15000x 2000)  and have it show as a panning from left to right as smoothly as possible. Thank you for any help.

Add your image to the Slide List and click on Objects and Animation

In the Properties Tab set the Fit Mode to COVER.

In the first KEY FRAME (KF) adjust the PAN X control in the ANIMATION TAB until the image sits correctly on the left of the screen

Right click on the First KF and ADD a new KF - it will appear at the end of the Timeline. Click on it

Adjust the PAN X control until the Image sits correctly on the right of the screen.

Click on the first KF again. Click on "ADD MODIFIER" in the Pan section and then on ANIMATION SPEED - set SMOOTH.

PLAY.

Thank you very much DG for your quick answer.

I managed so far to go through the first 4 lines )up to add a new KF  which appears at the end of the Tumeline

But then when I click on it nothing happens and I cannot enter a value in the PAN x tab in Animation.

I attach 2 screens :

Screen1 : after I  set fit mode to COVER and adjusted the PAN X to sit the image on the left of the screen.

screen2: after adding a second KF  ,sliding the image with the slider (this moves partly to the right) and clicking on the Key frame to  set up PAN X go to the extreme right -> not possible to enter a value in PAN X . I am not sure what I did wrong

NOTE: I  just realize after posting  that on screen1 I had KF 2 selected  when I captured the screen as the PAN X value is  set to 130 in KF 1.

Correction: I seem to have managed now : I think I  was confused by the cache and did not position the picture properly (I was entering the value manually in the PAN X tab whereas it seems to be very easy just to move the picture itself and let the tab adjust automatically.

Thank you Again I hope this will work.

 

Success! I managed to get the panorama displayed for 25 seconds, very smooth. Thank you again DG

I rarely look at the numbers & just the images visually to where i want them

Much quicker & easier

See this.

On viewing this tutorial again, I see it is based on a much older version of the software but the principle is OK.
