After you've selected which images should be included in a slideshow, you're ready to start configuring that show to your liking. Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom™ provides a wide range of options for customizing the slideshow to your personal tastes and optimizing the way the images are presented. The basic process I recommend using as you create a slideshow is to choose a template from the left panel, adjust any settings you like in the right panel, preview the show, fine-tune any settings you'd like to change, and then play or export the slideshow depending on how you want to present it.
