In-Depth Information
After you select a theme, Aperture opens the Slideshow Editor, as shown in Figure 8.10. Note how
when you move your mouse over the browser you get a playhead, and Aperture adjusts the
Viewer to show what the contents of the slide show are at that point in time. As you move your
mouse left or right, you see any animating effects or transitions that happen while this photo is
on-screen. This is called
skimming
. There are also a number of buttons in the Slideshow Editor to
help you create and play back your show.
