Photos

All of the options here govern the behavior of the photo slideshows described on Photo Controls.

  • Play Each Slide For. How long do you want each photo to remain on the screen? You can choose 2, 3, 5, 10, or 20 seconds. (Hint: 2 is plenty, 3 at most. Anything more than that will bore your audience silly.)

  • Transition. These options are visual effects between slides: various crossfades, wipes, and other transitions.

  • Repeat, Shuffle. These options work just as they do for music. Repeat makes the slideshow loop endlessly; Shuffle plays the slides in random order.
