Koolmoves Slideshow Helper

July 4th, 2009 Chris 3 comments

This helper tool allows you to drag and drop JPG, GIF and PNG files onto it to easily create a Koolmoves dynamic slideshow loaded from XML. If you’ve ever had to hand write the XML for the new version 7 mediaplayers, with captions, you know how much time a tool ike this can save especially when using dozens or hundreds of images.

You can choose slideshow skins, alter all kinds of slideshow settings and export the entire show with the Koolmoves source code and XML file written for you while seeing what your exported slideshow will look like as you make your alterations. The caption placement is decided by clicking and dragging your mouse inside the slideshow preview (right in the mediaplayer itself!) and you can click and drag to your hearts desire until you get a caption placement you like.Each slide lets you enter a caption but is not required. Some can have them or all can if you want.

Give the demo a try (In Source Code section) and see how easy it is to create a dynamic XML Koolmoves slideshow. When you export your show it will centralize all the images you added, will write your XML for you and export your chosen slideshow skin as Koolmoves source code ready to open in Koolmoves.
