Why won't it let me change the duration?

[Guest]

I'm doing a simple slideshow and when I follow the steps to change the
duration of each photo, it doesn't work. I've tried selecting them all and
changing the duration and also changing each individually. They continue to
be at the default 5 secs. Any suggestions??

=============================
Changing the duration, (Tools / Options /
Advanced tab)...does not affect images
that are on the timeline. It only affects images
placed on the timeline *after* the change
is made.

To change the duration of an image already
on the time line...place your pointer on the
image / left click it / and drag the double
red arrow. You'll see a tool-tip box that
shows the duration change as you drag.
