Slideshow - filename option
« on: May 02, 2006, 09:27:01 AM »
Is there an option to include the filename when running a slideshow? I don't remember if there was on the beta.

If not, it would be a nice option.

Sure, and it has been there since 4.0.  Just check the "Render Text" checkbox.  Put the {filename} variable in the text field.  You'll be all set.  You can put any other variables in there that you like as well.  {caption} is a useful choice.

Thanks, I never thought of substituting "filename" in the caption area.

Just be sure you put {filename} instead of "filename".  The curly braces are important.
