P: Wrong numbering when using Export JPEG Slideshow from Slideshow

In the Slideshow module, I select Add Text Overlay from the Slideshow menu. Underneath the photo, I select Edit to customize the text overlay. I add theese fields: Image # (01)-Filename-Image # (001)-Total # (001).

The Text Overlay is correct on screen, but when I export the Slideshow from the menu Slideshow, Export JPEG Slideshow, all fields show the same data - total numbers of photos in the slideshow.

Yea, annoying. Though, my current workaround is export as PDF (this works). Then convert PDF to individual JPGs. On the Mac, I use Automator (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/...).

Does this thread actually get monitored by Adobe staff? First time I have posted here (24 days ago) and nothing...no acknowledgment..no feedback from Adobe...

I worked around my issue last time by singly filtering to a single photo and exporting it to jpeg. This time I have 300+ photos to export, I'm not doing this one at a time.

I post my photos on a private share using the photo number as the order number for fund raising for my son's swimming club. This facility has always been the easiest way to get non-technical people to find the order number rather than them try and find the last 4 digits on a file name

Same issue on my Mac. Lightroom 6.1., Mac OS 10.10.3
PDF saves ok; JPEG Export dosen ́t work - same text-overlay on each slide.
Very frustating!

Adobe, please fix it immediately!

Precisely the same problem. Caption from last slide is on all slides see https://forums.adobe.com/message/7699... where I posted on this issue with more details.

I spent the whole of my Sunday from 8am until 1am in the morning (that is 17 hours on my weekend) adding meaningful captions to 688 photos to create a slideshow and the time has been completely wasted.

Please, please fix this bug quickly Adobe

I have the same issue as reported, though at one point yesterday it did work. However, no matter how I retrace my steps its not working now.

Hi,

> I think ver 5.7.1 should be made available on cloud

You can download the installation executable from their FTP server:

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/lightroom/win/5.x/Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_7_1.exe

or

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/lightroom/mac/5.x/Lightroom_5_LS11_mac_5_7_1.dmg

It's a real pain in the posterior. I had done a lot of work to the upgraded catalogue, which you can't use in 5.7.1, am presently sorting out hundreds of photos taken at an agricultural show. So, I am working on my computer in version 6.1, exporting the photos as plain jpgs onto an online drive (I put the files on an online drive anyway, for the show organiser to access for the websites, etc), accessing them on my laptop and exporting the slides using ver 5.7.1, as you can't use both versions on one computer at the same time. I think ver 5.7.1 should be made available on cloud since they have so mucked up the current version. I am still receiving error messages when carrying out a plain export, saying it can't access cr2 files too. Rather disappointed with adobe!

Not fixed in 6.1. Are you surprised?
