I started to create a long movie but the timeline seems stuck on 480. How do you extend this or is this the limit.

I have created gifs of text blocks and wish to bring them on the screen and leave them there until read then remove that gif and bring on the next. eventually looping the movie.

I believe the length could be 3 to 4 minutes if the minus button worked after 480 it would work a treat. Or is there a way to make what in effect is a slide show The Guy From OZ

You could use JQquery to load two Firestarter projects one after the other.:) I can't hear what I'm looking at when it's so easy to overlook something I'm not looking for.

I wonder if there is any software that uses it as a creator of sorts.

I sussed out JQquery and until I become more familiar I borrowed a script. I need to tidy it up adjust timing, add a blank to start but it works. No Flash. I may be able to create one of my utilities to do what Firestarter cannot. This is the effect I was after. To keep the page without scroll bars and cycle text blocks.

Thanks for giving me a shove in this direction. I will go through the documentation and tutorials. I will set it up in my Wamp installation to test ideas The Guy From OZ

I have quite a few examples of JQuery on my site. JQuery is an awesome thing. I can't hear what I'm looking at when it's so easy to overlook something I'm not looking for.

JQuery is an awesome thing.


It appears to be. I have just had a clean up and found my old copy of Swish. So that sliding in of content or image is easy and there is no time limit. I will investigate Jquery. I have the library and documentation and the API. I will play with it.
This Art site will stand some fancy tricks so I will try them out on that. It is all voluntary with me so what is goes.
That is some site you have set up I will explore it to see what goodies I can find. Also I am changing OpenPage to have a drop down list of sites to select from. I may even have favorite buttons to quickly go to sites selected a s favorites. I find I can use something like that. I will let you know when. I am still working on a time spreader although it seems to reduce time not extend it.
