How to access Desktop slideshow?

I just got the 30 day free trial deskscapes 8 to try it out. I can't find the slideshow though.

Here is what I see.

I've tried all the settings, can't find nothin'

Please help.

And yes, I did see the deskscapes guide url. I don't see a slideshow images tab or whatever.

Hello,

To access "Random background setting" only work when more then one image files selected. Click "Adjust random Setting" Button to adjust its setting.

Thank you,

Hi Basj,

 

Thank you for replying. It worked as you said, but now I'm having trouble playing gifs as a wallpaper. It won't show up on the deskscapes 8 config. 

Here is the one I saved as.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues.

The .gif format doesn't play in Deskscapes

.dream or wmv format play as animations.

Hello,

You can run a WMV format video on your desktop 

using Deskscapes but it will use a lot of CPU usage 

doing so. It's best to convert that WMV format to

AVI format and make a .dream file to run as a 

animated wallpaper on your desktop . AVI uses

a lot less CPU usage .

To make a dream file to play in Deskscapes you

can download Dream Maker for Free https://www.wincustomize.com/dream

and you can get Deskscapes on Sale now https://www.stardock.com/products/deskscapes/
