Hi,
I tried what you suggested, but I seem to still be getting the same result.
I copied the viewer from your listed location to a test folder, and started
my presentation with the "open with..." command. If I did it correctly then I
am still getting the same results. Is there a way to erase timings or reset
them to zero, and retime the animations? My current workaround is to set
everything, one by one, on a time delay from the slide transition to match up
with the narration, but it's a lot of work even for a small show.
