Slideshows

PMIO supports two different kinds of slideshow:

• A built-in slideshow which is accessible from the browser.
• A stand-alone auto-run slideshow that you can burn to a CD and send to your friends.

Built-in Slideshow

PMIO's built-in slideshow displays a slideshow of selected images in the current location. It can be opened by choosing Slideshow from the Image menu, or pressing Alt/S.

The slideshow takes a few seconds to start up and it then takes over the whole screen.

The Slideshow Screen

The operation of the slideshow is controlled by the Slideshow Preferences. You can right-click on the screen to get a context menu of commands.

Slideshow commands

• Cancel Deletion removes the marked for deletion status of an image.
• Remove From Slideshow removes the currently displayed image from the slideshow.
