Slide Style PXS Files & Structure

Slide Styles are contained in a single file on your PC called a PXS file. These
files hold all of the information that’s used to create a style when you
choose that option.

The PXS file is basically like a complete show file, with instructions for how
it’s put together, all in one place.

There are two different ways that PXS files are stored. Let’s go into those
now so you have an understanding of how they’re put together.

Where PXS Files are Saved
ProShow comes with a group of built-in styles that are ready for use from
the time you install the program. These are installed along with the rest of
the program in the default installation path (unless you entered a different
path during installation):

C:\Program Files\Photodex\ProShow Producer\styles\

If you open this folder on your PC you’ll see that it’s full of PXS files. These
are what ProShow uses to create the styles you choose while you’re making
a show.

The situation is slightly different for styles that you create, import, or get
from a Style Pack. These aren’t part of the default installation of ProShow
so they go in this folder:

For Windows 7, 8 and Vista:
C:\ProgramData\Photodex\Proshow\Styles\

For Windows XP and previous:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Photodex\Proshow\Styles\
