Hello

I have Version 2012 Build 16.4.3528.0331

I make slide shows and would like to use a long cross fade.

Having chosen the cross fade from the Animation list I then set 5.00 secs in the Duration box and press Enter. Going back to the Animations I still see the 5.00 secs. The image Duration I set is 7.00 secs.

However the actual duration of the cross fade is 2.00 seconds this remains the same even when, for instance increasing the image Duration to 12.00 secs and the cross fade to 8.00 secs. I've tried other Animations and found exactly the same problem.

The drop down from the Animations Duration allows a maximum of 2.00 secs is this the absolute maximum and the ability to increase it manually a mistake? If I am missing something then I would be delighted to find an answer, I do find the program very easy to use and the quality of the .wmv's is excellent.

Kind regards - Jim
