stretching

I am making a video with about 50 pictures and I had each pictures about 2.5 sec. After setting this I found that this is too short. Is there a way to stretch these pictures. I want to make individual pictures like 5 sec and instead of doing it individually for each picture, I would like to do all 50 pictures together. Thank for your help.

Groupe them all and stretch then by pulling the last one with hold CRTL.

Assuming that you are talking about still images (by the use of the word 'pictures'), you can set the default length of imported stills via Options/Preferences/Editing/New Still Image Length selectable field.

Read the link I gave above. "hold down the Ctrl key as you drag on the end of the slideshow group (time stretch)."

@Dexcon's advice is good if you don't have them yet on the timeline.

You have to select them all too. Group, select, stretch. Or you can use a script (such as Excalibur) to actually change the length of each image.

"The easiest way is to group the stills on your timeline (select them all and then right-click and select Group/Create New). Then, if you hold down the Ctrl key as you drag on the end of the slideshow group (time stretch), you can make the whole set longer or shorter as needed. " (From the linked comment by Steve Grisetti.)
