------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue May 24 00:22:46 -0700 2005 ------- In Slide Show settings (Slide Show - Slide Show Settings), Impress features a setting for the "duration of pause before the slide show is repeated". It defaults to 10 seconds. I would suggest to have the default set to 0 seconds in order to improve compatibility with MS Powerpoint users, and secondly to leave the decision to insert a pause to the user. The pause setting is not remembered in files saved to ppt format because MS Powerpoint does not have that feature. Upon reopening the ppt show in Impress, a default of 10 seconds is always reinstated. Users that need to exchange in Powerpoint format can and will mimick a pause slide adding a custom "pause" slide if they need so. Actually, this way of inserting a pause is much more customisable. They will and cannot make use of the Impress "pause slide" facility. If the default "duration of pause" would be 0, that Impress feature would not interfere for these users. I would even suggest to get rid of that "pause slide" feature altogether, because it is barely customisable. Some users however may appreciate the count down that comes with it, but even that can be mimicked in the current Impress incarnation with its powerfull per object animation settings. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
