Simple way to match slideshow lenght to audio length

Is there a simple way to match the length of a group of still images I've imported onto a Vegas timeline to the audio track length. I know how to set my preferences so that all stills import at the same clip length, which I could calculate to match the audio length.

But I'm curious if there is an easy way to do this after I've laid out my timeline and set all my pans and zooms - for example if I decide to use a different audio track that is 20 seconds longer than the first.

If the lengths are within a factor of 4 of each other then there is a very simple method. Select all the images and group them by pressing the G key. Hold the Ctrl key down and drag the end of the last event to line up with the end of the audio track. This will only allow a change of 0.25x to 4x, but that probably covers most situations.

Thank you. It's exactly what I needed. This will save me so much time.
