PM slideshow
« on: August 31, 2011, 04:34:17 AM »
I d/l'ed PM in the hopes of using the software for my event photo business.
So far it looks pretty good and would purchase a liscense but I want a slideshow with a numbering system for customers to select and id pics for purchase.  The slideshows I have created have no id.  Can you help?
Thanks

One way of doing this would be to add e.g., the filename (or some other unique file characteristic) below the image in the slideshow.
See attached screenshot of the Slideshow dialogue.

Hope this helps,

P.S. Read the section in the manual (http://www.camerabits.com/site/downloads.html) about variables to get a glimpse of what's possible with variables :D

 ;D Thank you Hayo!  I renamed the tagged pics, using numeric sequential and applied the variable to the slideshow.
What about live slideshow? It didn't apply there?
Thanks again!

I've actually never used the live slideshow, but yes, you're right; the live slideshow does not offer the options the normal slideshow has, so as far as I can tell there also is no way to have it add any text to the slideshow.

Enjoy,
