Hi folks,
I'm using FM and for once, I need to put photos in a particular order.
But when I add the files, which are named sequentially, they don't stay in the same order on the storyline. They are 100% completely random.
Is there a naming preference that I need to follow in order for the pics to stay in order? It's annoying to drop 240 pics 1 at a time! 🙁
I've tried 1_filename and filename_1 as well as 1filename and filename1 and just numbers, but nothing seems to work. The client wants the pics in order which I can do manually, but i'm trying to maximize my time efficiently.
Maybe FM doesn't work this way?
Also, is it possible to randomize the transition used? I usually set one type then select different pics for diff transitions, but it would be nice to have a base to start with.
thanks in advance for reading.
Cheers,
Keebler
got it. i was using a regular finder window, but if you point the image window within fm, it works. ugh.
