LAST TRANSITION TO DESKTOP

[DaveG]

For some strange reason (probably user error!) I cannot get the last slide transition in my show to go to desktop.

I have set the "Show transition to desktop after last slide" to on (ticked) and have chosen "Rolling up from Right-Bottom" as the transition.

I am using a silent music file and have the sync set to auto. There are no overlapping slides or other conflicts. My show is in a 1024x768 window.

In spite of all my best efforts and never having had this problem before the last slide just flashes back to the desktop.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While writing all this I was trying various things (to make sure I had my facts straight) and tried ticking "Without border for windowed mode" and, hey presto, it now works!!

Has this been mentioned in the forum before? I cannot remember ever having read anything about it.

In spite of the problem "going away" I decided to post anyway - it might be of help to someone.

Dave,

That's interesting - one finds new little idiosyncrasies with PTE every day! I haven't heard of this one before. Makes sense, though - Igor has all the bases covered.

I guess you tried to use that option in windowed mode?

This option - "Show transition to desktop after last slide" - works only for full screen mode or windowed mode without borders (as you found).

Thanks Igor,
