First, did you set the 60 seconds for this slide in the Customize Slide Main tab? If not, you need to set it there. Second, if you did set it for 60 seconds and that shows on the timeline in the Objects and Animation view, do you have any background music presently set? If so, please remove the music and try running it again and see if it works properly then. I'll explain a bit later....To exit from the Objects & Animations screen you indeed do use the "X" at the top right corner which should return you to the main window.Recently there have been some issues with background sound and display times in the Objects and Animations screen. Your issue "may" be associated with this which is being corrected as we speak. If removing the music "fixes" the problem, then we can go from there. If it doesn't then it might be a good idea for you to use the "File" "Create Backup in Zip" and post a link so we can see what's going on and help correct the problem.best regards,Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alrobin Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 Removing music seems to sort the problemWhat now ? Fergy,You might try another piece of music temporarily to see if you have the same problem. Also, when you play any of the demos or v.5 shows on Beechbrook can you hear the music OK?You might also check to make sure that none of your transitions, as shown on the timeline, are overlapping.

Be sure to install it in a different folder.http://www.wnsoft.com/test/pte500_b6_pre1.zipLin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
