Creating Slide Libraries

The MakeSlideLibrary command lets you create slide libraries from multiple slide files.

To create a slide library:

  1. Create several slide files (.sld) using the ExportSLD command.
  2. Create a text file containing the names of the slide files (each in a separate line, including the .sld extension).

    It is recommended to create the slide list file in the same folder where you store the slides (making it unnecessary to specify paths to the slides).

  3. Type MakeSlideLibrary at the command prompt.
  4. Specify the slides list file you created in step 2 (including the file extension, for example "myslidelib.txt").
  5. Specify the name of the slide library to create (including the .slb extension).

To view slides from a slide library:

  1. Type DisplayDialogs at the command prompt.
  2. Specifiy No to suppress the display of file dialog boxes.
  3. Type ViewSlide.
  4. Type the name for a slide library followed by a name of a slide in parenthesis, which is part of the slide library (for example, "myslidelib(myslide3)").

    The slide displays in the graphics area.

  5. Click in the graphics area or click View > Refresh to clear the screen of the slide.
  6. Type DisplayDialogs again.
  7. Type Yes to unsuppress the display of file dialog boxes.

  Use the DisplayQuality command to enhance the resolution of curved entities in slides as needed. See "Writing and Running Script Files" if you want to present slide shows.
