<para
>With this Kipi-plugin you create a perfect slideshow with 3 mouse clicks. </para>

<title
>The Settings Dialog</title>

<para
>Upon opening of the plugin from the host application the <emphasis
>Slide Show</emphasis
> window will appear asking questions as to how you want to stage your slideshow. You can choose between the selected images and all images in the same album. </para>

<para
>The <guilabel
>Use OpenGL Slideshow Transitions</guilabel
> checkbox enables very smooth image transitions using the OpenGL display mode. Be sure to have OpenGL enabled on your graphics card, since otherwise the slideshow will be very slow. </para>

<para
>The <guilabel
>Print Filename</guilabel
> checkbox enables the image filename to be displayed in the lower left corner. </para>

<para
>The <guilabel
>Loop</guilabel
> checkbox enabled will run the whole show in an endless loop (until manually stopped with <keycombo
><keycap
>Esc</keycap
></keycombo
>). </para>

<para
>The <guilabel
>Delay Between Images</guilabel
> may be set in millisecond steps. 1500 milliseconds correspond to 1.5 seconds and are a good default value. The best timing depends also a bit on your computer power and the transition effect. Try it out before you show it to your friends! </para>

<para
>There are more than a dozen <guilabel
>Transition Effects</guilabel
> available which you can choose from. The <emphasis
>Random</emphasis
> selection will change the transition effect with every image. </para>
