    How does one keep the captions visible onscreen the entire time a photo is being displayed? For some reason I can only get them to display for a second or two.

    thanx

    oops, that's a new one.
    I would start by deleting the whole caption element from the preferences (everything between <caption> and </caption> to reset everything to default values. Your caption may be ugly, but it'll be there. Then re-introduce tag by tag what you had and find out what made your caption disappear (and post here what the error was, please).

    there isn't an error ... I just want the caption to remain visible for the duration of each image being displayed.

    I am already using individual caption XML for each individual image ...

    Would you mind posting your xml or - even better - a link to your test site?

    can't post a link as it is running on my local mac ...

    but I uploaded a copy of the XML file here: http://www.wa98109.us/example.xml

    You have the same caption configuration information within every <image> tag. Try putting that just once into the <album> --> <configuration> tag, where it makes more sense.
    Then I can only repeat what I wrote before: Start with commenting out all caption configuration (just the naked captions) and re-enter all elements until you find the offending parameter. My bets are on the <transition> tag.

    <caption backgroundAlpha="0.65" backgroundRoundness="5" margin="5,10,5,10" padding="5,3,5,3" position="topRight" textAlign="right" displayMode="always" showCount="true"> <title color="#ffffff" font="Helvetica" size="12" weight="bold" /> <transition time="10000" /> <description color="#ffffff" font="Helvetica" size="11" style="italic" /> <shadow /> <transition direction="rightToLeft" time="0.25" delayOut="1.5" /> </caption>

    You have transition listed twice. I assume the first is overwritten with the second ( I may be wrong ) I would combine all of the transition attributes to one line. Also, if you use the direction="rightToLeft" in the caption transition, you must also change the type="movein" as stated on page 26. Like Christophvl stated, removing all transition attributes makes it work as you want. Simply add back one line at a time until you find out what causes the issue.
