• Drag the file or files to the Audio section in the Slideshow Inspector’s General tab.

• Choose Fit To Audio, Fit To Slides, or Fit To Slides and Loop Audio from the Slideshow
Editor’s Settings pop-up menu.
Choose a Slideshow
Duration setting.
• Select either Fit To Slides or Fit To Audio in the Slideshow Inspector’s General tab. If
you select Fit To Slides, you can also select the Loop Audio checkbox.
Use Fit To Audio to calculate a slide duration value that is applied to all slides, based
on the length of the audio file. The duration ensures the slides and the audio finish at
the same time and that all slides appear for the same amount of time.
There are several things to be aware of when using Fit To Audio:
• Each slide’s duration automatically updates if you add or remove slides or overall
audio files in the slideshow.
• Using a short audio file with Fit To Audio can cause the audio to finish before the
slides, because the slides cannot be set to durations shorter than their minimum
duration (15 frames for NTSC or 12 frames for PAL projects). The minimum duration
for the slides increases when one or more of them uses transitions.
• All slide duration controls are disabled when Fit To Audio is selected.
