Web Slide Show
Web slide shows are a popular way of presenting images. However, creating them
usually requires intensive coding and programming knowledge. With PhotoImpact,
you can now incorporate slide shows into your Web pages without worrying much
about the tediousness task of coding.
A single web page can hold multiple slide shows. Like script effects, you can
specify the event that precedes each show. You can control mouse-click behavior
and add descriptions to each slide, or set the Play duration.
To create a Slide Show:
1. Using the Slice Tool, slice a Web page according to your preferences.
2. In the Slice Panel, select an image cell where you will place the Web Slide
Show. Set its script effect as Triggered by Cell.
3. In Script Effect, click Add Script Effect and select Slide Show.
4. In the Images tab, select image files that you want to use as slides in your
slide show. Click Add for every image you want included. Repeat this step until
you get all images you want. You can also drag images in the Preview window
images to rearrange the order.
Note: Set a hyperlink for each of your images by specifying a remote or local file in
the URL. You can also add some image information by typing a short
description in the Description text box.
5. Click the Layout tab and select a cell where you will place slideshow controls.
6. Select the slideshow controls to add and assign functions to each. Optionally,
you can add description regions in the Image tab.
Note: Each cell can be assigned one slideshow control. Try to use smaller cells for
every control.
7. In the Options tab, set how long each image will be displayed by specifying the
number of seconds in Duration. You can also set other general slideshow
properties, add mouse click behaviors, and set thumbnail attributes in this tab.
8. Click OK.
