Question:
How do I get a Graphics Slide Show with sound (i.e. play a CD or selected sound tracks whilst displaying my graphic selections)?

Answer:
All you have to do is ensure that an Audio CD or sound selection (MID, WAV, MPEG etc.) is ACTUALLY PLAYING when you hit the "Graphics" button (but note that any video selections (*.AVI etc.) will be ignored).

Question:
When displaying graphics, how do I get to the "Display at Original Size" and "Resize To Fit Window" options?

Answer:
Simple...Uncheck the "TV Mode" option.
In some cases, you might have to click on "Stop" first.


Question:
How can I tell the details of a graphic file on display?

Answer:
Again, simple...SINGLE RIGHT MOUSE CLICK ANYWHERE IN THE GRAPHIC ON DISPLAY (the details will include the graphics height and width).

NB...This only works in "TV Mode" (because we use the left and right mouse clicks to go backwards and forwards in all other modes!).

If no graphic is on display, if you right mouse click on a hi-lighted file name in the list box, its details will also be revealed (except its height and width).


Question:
How do I abort a drive search for graphics or sound?

Answer:
Hit the Esc (Escape) key once (it may not react straight away, please wait).

Question:
How do I move backwards/forwards through a list of graphics when in "Full Screen" or "Display At Original Size" mode.

Answer:
LEFT click your mouse button to go back, RIGHT click your mouse button to go forwards.


Question:
How do I stop a graphic display when in "Full Screen" or "Display At Original Size" mode.

Answer:
Hit the "Esc" key...it may take a second or two to kick in.

Question:
How do I change the file list box font colour?

Answer:
If you click on the down arrow next to the current colour indicator, you will be presented with a "drop down" list of colour options - click the one you want.

To supply a custom font colour, do as above, but click on the LAST item in the drop down list. This will then reveal a custom colour box from which to make your selection.

Question:
How can I tell what the random CD audio tracks are going to be?

Answer:
Single right mouse click anywhere in the "Random" checkbox area (you can also call for this option from the Tools menu). The computer generated list will then appear (each time you un-check / check the Random box, a new random list is generated).

Question:
How do I make a CD selection to play in a given order and then how can I check this selection.

Answer:
First, ensure that you check (tick) the Checkbox called "Select". You then merely click on each tracks Checkbox in the order in which you wish to hear it (e.g. if you clicked track 2, then track 1, you will hear track 2 first followed by track 1).

To check your selections, single right mouse click anywhere in the "Select" checkbox area. The order in which you have made your selections will be displayed (you can also call for this option from the Tools menu).


And finally...

Remember the old adage: "If all else fails, read the Manual"!

Enjoy.
