By default, the Windows XP slideshow continously loops
through a set of pictures in five second interviews. Is
there a way to prevent the continuous loops, e.g. after
showing the last picture in the folder, the slideshow
ends instead of looping back to first picture and
starting over? TIA.
==============================
The freeware IrfanView may be useful to you:
Download IrfanView 3.95
http://www.tucows.com/preview/194967.html
(get the plug-ins too)
Once you have the program installed...open it
and go to...File / Slideshow...
Open the "Look In" drop window and select the
folder that contains the images you wish to view.
Click the "Add All" button in the left pane.
Click the "Advanced Options" button and check...
"Stop slideshow and close IrfanView after the last
image" / OK.
If you do not wish to see the file names during
the slideshow...uncheck..."Show Text" in the
bottom right of the screen.
Also, you may want to place a check in the:
"Hide mouse cursor" box.
Click the "Play " button in the left pane.
There are many more options to explore but this
should get you started.
