but it won't let me: Using the slide designer ("Motion") always makes it impossible to cover the whole picture area to start from since the frame cannot be fitted completely onto the picture - it has a totally different aspect ratio!! WTF?

Also it's not possible to change the duration! I want to zoom in really slow - where can I change the duration? It's greyed out!

And again and again the strange and crazy half-fadeout (!!?) at the end of the slide zoom which makes it even more difficult to continue from there.

Can anybody help, please?

Hi Alessandro -

Don't use the slide show motion tool - use Magic Motion.

First set the duration of the snapshot then, in Magic Motion, you can control the zoom points and the speed of the zoom. Much easier.

If you're unfamiliar with Magic Motion, have a look at the tutorials here - http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/41501.page - under the Magic Motion sub-heading.

Cheers - Tony
