Create slideshows in Lightroom

Most of the work of creating slideshows is done in the Slideshow module, where you can select layout templates, choose
transitions, and set playback options.

In the Slideshow module, the left panels contain a list of templates and previews of their layouts. The Slide Editor view
in the center of the workspace displays the photos in the selected slide template. The toolbar below the Slide Editor
contains controls for playing a preview of the slideshow, refining the selection, and adding text to the slides. The right

photos using keyboard shortcuts.
