Principle of functioning
The general principle of music track functioning is that as
long as you do not change the settings, the previous settings
apply.
So, if:
- Slide 1 - Define a play list
- Slide 2 - Contains no settings
- Slide 3 - Contains no settings
- Slide 4 - Define a play list
- Slide 5 - Contains no settings
Then:
- Slide 2 and 3 continue to play the play list define in
slide 1
- Slide 5 continue to play the play list define in slide 4

This option is particularly useful, for
example, to reduce the sound of the music

only for this slide.

The playlist (bottom part of the dialog box)
The list of reading consists of
two parts:
- The toolbar containing the controls of the playlist
- The list of the music files composing the playlist

The playlist
The music files are listed in the order in which they will be
played, of the top downward.
The column Volume allows to define the " Master volume " for
the file. This volume is independent possible reductions of
volume that you define in the upper part of the dialog box.
Remark
The fade in/out effects and the
increase/decrease of volume have places during the entering
slides transitions.
Consequently:
- They owed the same time of the entering transitions.
- If a slide has a entering transition set to "No
transition", the sound effect is not progressive but
immediate.
