Description
Multiple Files Play tool allows you to show a set
of images (or movies or sound files or Slides) as a slide show with a default timing and transition.
This tool is particularly useful if you would like to
show a set of pictures of a recent event, as you do no nned to create a whole playlist
Unlike the Multiple Files Movies this can play slides.
Note it plays in the full viewer
and not in a region inside the viewer
To use this tool:
- Drag it onto the playlist.
- Right-click the tool and choose "Edit"
- Under the "directory" tab set the path to the folder with
the images you wish to show. When you have done this click
okay.
Note if you are using the touch screen dialog a single file can
be set here also (as opposed to a folder) Useful is used parametrically.
- The default timing and transition can be set
- run the tool. Once you have set
it up click the "Run" button in the Screen Control toolbar. It
will continually loop through all of the pictures in the folder you have
selected until you hit "Stop" in the Program toolbar.
Note:The tool will play as part of a sequence.
If jumping to another slide this step needs to be stopped.
If the Media toolbar is visible it can be stopped there also
