Create and View Slide Libraries

A slide library is a file containing one or more slides. Slide library files are used

for creating custom image tile menus and for combining several slide files for

convenient file management.

You can create slide libraries from slide files using the SLIDELIB utility. After

you have set up a slide library, you can view slides by specifying the name of

the slide library and the slide.

Do not delete the original slides after creating the slide library. The SLIDELIB

utility cannot update a slide library once it is created. If you want to add or

delete a slide, update the slide list file and remake the library with SLIDELIB.

When you remake the slide library, all the slide files that you intend to include

must be available.

To create a slide library

1 Use a Windows ASCII text editor to create a list of slide files to include

in the library. The file would look similar to this example:

entrance.sld

hall.sld

stairs.sld

study.sld

balcony.sld

2 Name and save the file as a text file with a .txt file extension.

3 Click Start menu (Windows) ➤ All Programs (or Programs) ➤ Accessories

➤ Command Prompt.

4 In the Command Prompt window, at the prompt, enter CD <folder

location of slides> to change folders.
