Hi. Just purchased photo story deluxe 2016. Creating slideshow and trying to add pictures to middle. Photos keep additng to beginning. Is there a way to place photos without having to move them after they are in the storyboard? Takes a long time to drag them. I would like to determine a spot where they go and then add them from the media list. Thanks.

You need to switch to Timeline mode

Then you can edit and add the slideshow.

If you are not familiar with using timeline mode then read the installed PDF manual, available under Help, to understand how timeline mode works

Hi. Still having issues. I switched to time line mode. If I want to select a certain point in the slide show and add another slide. Can I do it directly? Each time it adds to the end tand then I need to drag it to the popint I am looking for. Thanks

Only by selecting all the objects to the right of where you want to insert the object and move them to the right to create a space for the new object.

Yyou can move a block of objects in a single operation by changing your mouse mode to Connect objects in all tracks - see the installed pdf for more information on available mouse modes.

Then insert the object at the desired place and then move all the following objects back to connect with the inserted object.
