does anyone have experience editing a slideshow??

This is a discussion on does anyone have experience editing a slideshow?? within the Macromedia Fireworks forums in Adobe Tools category; I'm using Fireworks CS3 and had no problem creating a new slideshow ( http://www.mountainwfc.ca/gallery.htm ), however adding in new photos is problematic. I followed the online help, by adding new photos, and new album books, however whenever I do, I lose the flash functionality between photo changes.

Default does anyone have experience editing a slideshow??

I'm using Fireworks CS3 and had no problem creating a new slideshow
(http://www.mountainwfc.ca/gallery.htm), however adding in new photos is
problematic. I followed the online help, by adding new photos, and new album
books, however whenever I do, I lose the flash functionality between photo
changes. Also, sometimes a new photo will display over top of the previous
photo with the one behind showing at the sides (if wider).
Although the online help doesn't seem to specifically state to, I re-upload
the modified slideshow.xml file along with the new photos/thumbs.
FYI, the Fireworks Player I'm using is the standard Player - White (Flash).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Ed

I have found that it's sometimes easier to take a good look at the xml file.

I'm no coder but when you already have a working slide show, it's often
fairly simple to see the bit that is different and alter it accordingly.

Hey thanks for the reply guys! I am now paying more attention to the xml file
code. Actually I think I solved the problem by simply deleting Temporary Files
in my Browser. Hitting Ctrl-F5 multiple times wasn't sufficient. I'm now having
fun playing with different transitions!
Great forum.
Cheers
Ed
