Sliders with text, not photos

Hi,

I'm tearing my hair out with Xara Web Designer. I hope someone can help. All I want to do is create a slideshow which has text instead of pictures. I've tried everything I can think of, and, every time, something unexpected happens. For example, I have tried to modify several of the stock sliders in the Online Content Catalogue. I've tried adding a text box, but it doesn't show up. I've tried saving my text as a graphic and using that, but again, it either doesn't show up or it does but another graphical element from the stock slideshow appears in front of it even though I've actually deleted that element so it shouldn't even be there! Please help!

Hi

AFAICS there is not gallery widget which supports direct text input, however using your option of images it is possible.

Here is a quick and dirty example, I used other images to hand, of how to edit a gallery - yours may be different however the principles should be the same.
