Altering Default Settings

I know some of this may be in the forum and I did a search but found nothing.

I keep having trouble with slideshow defaul settings in VV4. I want to set the time and aspect ratios so they apply to all slideshow projects. I know that somewhere in the preferences, you have to enter a time code to reset the default to the time you want. I want to set it to 12 seconds and be permanent. Anyone know how?

Secondly, I find that when I start a slideshow project, I set my project preferences and then I have to also go into each still and modify each of those. Is there someway to do these globally? I can set the reduce interlace flicker switch globally, but then I have to go into each still to set aspect to widescreen and interlacing to lowerfield first. I want to set these as the default.

Thanks in advance.

Yep, much easier to change Options/Preferences/Editing. From there you can change both the timespan the overlap for cross-fades, transitions etc.

I'll assume you know you can grap a whole bunch of stills and drop them on the timeline at once.
