Hello!

Im putting toghether a slideshow with best photos of a wedding.

Theres some moments that I want to change the images sequence, because it makes more sense for the viewer that way.

But I dont know how to change this sequence. Seems to me LR is locked to stay in capture time only.

I mean, I want my whole catalog in capture time sequence, but in few moments I'd like to change that...

Is it possible?

Thank you!
 
In Grid View, create a collection. Select the target images and drag them to the collection. (Remember when dragging images to click on the thumbnail image, and not the gray frame/bezel.)

Open the collection by clicking on it, then either:
a) Library menu > View > Sort > put a check mark on User Order
-or-
b) on the Tool bar, just below the grid, and above the filmstrip, click on 'Sort:' and choose, 'User Order'. If the tool bar isn't visible, press 'T'. If Sort: is not visible on the toolbar, at the far right end of the Toolbar is a downpointing triangle arrow, press that, it configures what tools are available on the toolbar, ensure Sorting is checked.

With the collection in view, and User Sort order selected, just click and drag the images into the order you want. (Remember the drag thing above). When you have it the way you want it, go to Slideshow, and set up the show the way you want. As a bonus, the collection will remember your slideshow settings for you.

If you've already invested a lot of time in setting up the slide show with the images in the wrong order, use the Template Browser Left Hand Panel in Slideshow module, to save a template, which you can apply to the new collection and Slideshow.
