 * Hi,
    is it possible to have the opposite of the control setting ‘Pause slideshow
   when mouse hovers over’? How can I get ‘Slide slideshow when mouse hovers over’(
   slideshow pauses until mouse hovers over)?

 * Hi,
 * I’m sorry, that’s not possible by default.
 * If you have a basic understanding of JavaScript, you could possibly do it yourself
   with jQuery’s [mouseenter](https://api.jquery.com/mouseenter/) and [mouseout](http://api.jquery.com/mouseout/)
   methods. Have a look at [this forum thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-there-a-way-to-tell-the-slideshow-to-skip-to-a-certain-slide)
   to learn how to control the slideshow’s API.
 * Personally, I would say a setting like “Play slideshow when mouse hover over”
   would confuse the visitor as they often move their mouse to whatever they’re 
   looking at.
 * Best regards,
    Stefan
