Window Movie Maker slide-duration

[Guest]

Hi,
I am in the process of making a photo+video movie on WMM.
I have added all the pictures and transitions already. By default, the
duration for pictures is 5sec and for transition is 1.25sec.
Is there anyway i can change those durations AFTER I have already added all
the pics & transitions to the storyboard?

I try to change the default setting, but it only applies to the newly-added
pics and transitions. All the ones that have already been added (before the
default change is made) arent altered.

Is there anyway i can work around this? Or I have to do the whole thing over
again? (which is such a hassle for me i guess )

THanks,
K.

=============================
As you have discovered...the setting only
applies to clips added to the timeline *after*
you change the setting.

You can change the duration for each clip
manually. Move your pointer around on the
edge of a clip until you see a double red
arrow. Now drag the double red arrow...
you'll see a tooltip that shows the duration
changing.

Or...just redo the project now that you have
changed the duration.
