You can move images on the timeline by clicking on them with the mouse and dragging them to the desired location.
Use the storyboard with its clear overview if you want to sort your images.

Adding Captions/Titles to Images
Captions can be easily added to one or more images. Select an image in the timeline and go to the Text tab in the Object Settings window. Now you can type a caption for the image, change the font style and color, and select special effects and animations.
To position the text, simply move it with the mouse in the layout designer.
Note: You can set your own default font in Advanced → Program Settings → Default Image Settings.

Adding Sound
Click the musical note icon (d) to open the background music list. Then click the plus icon (+) to select the desired music files. You can change the order of the list by using the mouse to drag the files.
The order and length of the songs will be displayed as a wave along the bottom track of the timeline. Here, songs can be rearranged, shortened, and overlapped, and the volume can be adjusted using the volume rubber band.
Pro tip: If you want to add multiple sounds/music at the same time, instead of putting them in the soundtrack panel, you should use multiple sound objects, and this way you can have more tracks.

Multiple tracks and animations
For all of you who want to get more out of your slideshow, AquaSoft SlideShow provides versatile animation and design options. The slideshow offers an unlimited number of images and audio tracks. Tracks are not immediately visible, but become available by adding chapters. Drag a chapter from the toolbar to the timeline and add images or other objects to it from the toolbar. When expanded, you will see a field where you can create new tracks. Chapters can also be nested.
