1. Deluxe Slide Show

Hello All,

I just upload to the archives the latest version of my DeluxeSlideShow. I add automatically adjusting

the aspect ratio depend on your screen.

Up until the late 1990's the normal aspect ration was 4:3

That is, if a TV was 4 feet across then it had to be 3 feet high.

So when people speak of a 20 inch TV they are talking diagonally from top left to bottom right.

No matter how many inches the TV is (in our case 20) the aspect ratio remains the same.

It has to be, so all Broadcasters and all TV Manufactures are on the same page.

The FCC sees to this. The FCC will agree to anything as long as the Broadcasters and

Manufactures agree. Now comes the advent of HDtv that uses 16:9 aspect ratio.

Modern computers have both but they are probably not making 4:3 any more. Being behind the times

I'm probably the last person to have one (4:3). Because of this my DeluxeSlideShow self

adjusts depending on your computer screen. It has been tested on a Windows 95, Windows 98,

Windows XP and Window 7. And probably works on all the ones in between like 2000 and Vista.

It is all written in Euphoria and includes the bound and source.

I would like people to test it to see if works on there system. If not let me know.

Suggestions and comments welcome.

I found this worked fine. I had to copy the data file into C:\, or it crashed when it couldn't find it, but apart from that it worked fine, Don. I run the exe, to be sure, which cures all the include file problems, but otherwise it runs just dandy. Nice little - big - program. Good quality image resizing. Great job, well done. Maybe you should not crash when you can't open the data file, but rather create one by default ... minor thing, really :)

Thank you Signor and Andy.

Andy, thank you for your fine report. You can make it your default view (as I have done) by associating .jpg with this program, Under Any window/Tools/Foler Options/File Types. You can eliminate the need of C:\ssdata by deleting line 1541 of DeluxeSlideShow.exw and line 30 of zoom.e

Signor, I don't know why font.e is not included in the standard Euphoria includes. You can find it in http://www.rapideuphoria.com/cgi-bin/asearch.exu?dos=on&win=on&lnx=on&gen=on&keywords=font.e Font Package by Jiri Barbor. I'm going to re-upload taking out the unnecassary stuff and including font.e.

Hello Don..

Selgor yet again

C:\EUPHORIA\deluxeslideshow3\deluxSS3.exw:29
can't find myfile.e in C:\EUPHORIA\deluxeslideshow3
or in C:\EUPHORIA\include
include myfile.e
^

Error in the .exw version.

All in the bound .exe O.K.

For what it is worth ..

Maybe check both versions ..

See what is left out in the .exw from the .exe ??

Just a thought.

Cheers.

Selgor.

Selgor.

My includes were messed up.

OK, all include files are included. Euphoria 3.1.1 includes are required.

I uploaded and download and double checked. Exe and exw are working.

Good luck,

Don Cole
