Hello Nancy.
Thank you.
This video tutorial looks like it will help me greatly.
From your previous response to a similar question on here, I did take note of what you said, I even bought a new program to do the animation...
However, the 2 I tried were really simple LINEAR animations.....
Really not at all what I wanted.
So I have gone back into Animate (Flash).
It may be a sledgehammer, but my animation designs are NO WALNUT !!! (I have been using Flash when it was with Macromedia, and basically, it it gives me free reign, totally)
In essence, I have the intro scene that loads in a second...
Simple, has a welcome message and all the thumbnails for that page/slideshow.
A visitor can linger or move on....
The TN's are small crops of the main photos created and modified in Lightroom.
On the slideshow, they "swap" with an un-mod TN on a mouse over action. (cannot add that function in other suggested apps)
The viewer does not have to watch things in a linear way, as they would have to in these other apps....
They can click on any button they like.
Not in a linear simple PLAY scenario.
The main full size photo then animates into view.
I can create all manner of ways of animation, restricted only by my own lack of creativity.......
So I can speed up, slow down, twist, move, whatever I like, and do so for each different photo.Then, when the final photo arrives, (2 secs) a small "infoicon" appears.
If the viewer wants to know about the photo, they can click on it and it will start another timeline animation that sees the main photo slide to the left and shrink in size while a text box with details about the scene appears in the vacated space....
They can go back to the full photo, or move on to another one, either anywhere on the timeline or in order...
It is entirely at the visitors choice.
So NOT linear...
Thank you for your time and advice.
Glen.
