I want the speaker in the camera to be at the front, and the incoming overlay to be behind them (so if they wave their hand while chatting about the info on the overlay, their hand does not disappear. The Overlays are typically slides of coming meetings, etc. Any ideas how to do this - I've hunted around and so far have drawn blanks. Thanks!

The talent and background - are what vMix would call a Multiview. Then I want to slide the picture in - so that it sits behind the talent, but in front of the background image. In this clip - about 10 photos were used ...

This is the manual one: Create a new blank input Put your background on layer 4 Put your picture on layer 5 Put your talent on layer 6 Create a shortcut: Key/Control: key of your choice Function: MultiViewOverlay Input: number of your new created input (multiview) Value: 5 Now, whenever you click on the shortcut button, the picture appears/disappears

I get what you're both saying - and I setup rudyengels idea - it worked to turn off/on the single slide. But not really what I'm trying to do - I need to be able to work through a list of talking points each with their own slide ... say 10 background slides (not 1). Is there a way to do this ... it seems like this would be a pretty simple thing to accomplish - but maybe not in vMix?

It's dead simple , that layer holding the slide input can be whatever is easiest to for you to change its content. Problem is there are several options to do that ranging from manually changing/loading individual slide to image sequence, image folder/photos to a "title" holding an image referenced by a data source. Check to helpfiles to see what input type would suit you best

It always starts up as an automatic slideshow - how to force it to manual? I'll hit the help file. Thanks for the help all. Very appreciative.
