For whatever reason, (I suspect a mixture of "functionality" and personal stupidity with Cutting/Pasting slides...), I sometimes get a slide which is several minutes in length.
Is the only way to reduce the length by going to the end, and "dragging" the End of Timeline back to e.g. the end of the audio?
Is there a (simple) way to say "This slide is only this long"?
I'd submitted a feature request a while back indicating I would like an option added to the right-click in the timeline, allowing users to type in a slide length number. Hope others will jump on that feature request. It would save LOTS and LOADS of time, IMHO
A really odd thing here, group some objects and resize on the timeline, cut and paste, the group pastes at the original length. To fix ungroup resize, regroup strange but true

Hey Bruce!
Dragging the timeline is the only method I know of. Would welcome any other ideas...
Hi Guys,

Done.

Mr. Mayor, how DO you come up with all these ...ahem...unique cut and paste fixes? So cool...and I feel like I'm using them "off-label"
I will definitely give this a try when I run into the situation Bruce and others have described, and that I too have run into.
Experimenting when things don't go quite right, they are all my solutions to real world problems.
Or I am just odd :-()
Well, I / we do thank you. I also try some "odd" things, but so far not nearly as creative AND successfully with SL.
