To gather the photos that you would like to use in your slideshow, click on a thumbnail image of the photo and while still holding down on the left mouse button, drag the thumbnail image to the “Mini-Basket”. This process is similar to how you would add photos to a Snapact Album. The Mini-Basket is basically a holding container for photos that you would like to focus on for editing purposes or to create your slideshow. You should take note that photos are organized in the Mini-Basket sequentially, based on photo file name. If you wish to view the photos in your slideshow in a specific sequence, you will need to rename your photos so that they will appear in the Mini-Basket sequentially.

If your photos are in the wrong orientation, you can rotate the photo(s) by double-clicking on the thumbnail image, or you can click on the thumbnail image to select the photo and click the “Enter” key to view the photo in full screen mode and gain access to the editing tools. In the edit toolbar, you will see the options to “Rotate Left” and “Rotate Right”. Once you have finished rotating your photo, you can double-click on the photo to return to thumbnail view or press the “Enter” key. Doing so will prompt you to save the changes to your photo.

Once you have selected all the photos that you would like to use in your slideshow, double-click within the Mini-Basket pane, or click on the Mini-Basket drop-down menu in the top right corner of the pane and select “Browse Basket”.

To view your slideshow, click on the first thumbnail image in the Image Basket to enter the “Viewer Mode”. In the top toolbar, you will see the “Play Slideshow” button. Click on this button to launch the slideshow in Full Screen mode. Once the slideshow has reached the last photo in the set, Snapact Photo Manager will automatically return to Viewer Mode.
