Content captions are assigned as attributes in your XML file. Here's how to add them.

Step One: Choose a Caption Appearance

If you haven’t already, choose a caption type through CAPTION/Appearance and style the caption area however you like. The live preview of SlideShowPro for Flash will update to show your setting. (See Captions for an overview of available options).

Step Two: Choose Caption Elements

You can display just a caption, a title, or both. This is controlled through CAPTION/Elements. By default both captions and titles are displayed.

Step Three: Edit the XML document

Add caption attributes to each img element in your XML file:

<img src="tree.jpg" caption="A redwood tree from California" />

If you are showing titles in the caption area, add title attributes to each img element:

<img src="tree.jpg" caption="A redwood tree from California" title="American redwoods" />

Step Four: Publish

Publish a new movie. Your captions will now appear using all the options you chose above. If you are using one of the “...(if Available)” caption types, remember that you need to roll-over a photo after it has fully transitioned in order for the caption to appear.
