You can control the appearance of the slideshow, and enable or disable it if you want.

To change slideshow settings:

  1. Select a page that uses the Photos template by clicking it in the sidebar on the left of the iWeb window.

  2. If the Photos inspector isn’t open, click the Inspector button in the toolbar at the bottom of the iWeb window (or choose View > Show Inspector), and then click the Photos button.

  3. Image of the Slideshow pane of the Photos Inspector.

  5. Use these controls to change your slideshow settings:

  6. Enable slideshow: By default, this checkbox is selected, so a Play Slideshow button appears on the page. To remove the button, deselect this checkbox.

    Transitions: Choose an animated effect that plays as the slideshow changes from one image to the next.

    Show reflection: Turn a slideshow reflection on or off.

    Show captions: Turn photo captions on or of during the slideshows.
