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:

  1. Drag it onto the playlist.
  2. Right-click the tool and choose "Edit"
  3. 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.
  4. The default timing and transition can be set
  5. 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
