I’m trying to add a “delayed pause” function to the Slide Show. I’ve followed the tutorials for the Slide Show and Thumbgallery to create a mix of both and the thumbnails do call up an image, which is great. But I want the clicked on image to extend the slideshows delay time.  
My slideshow duration is currently set at 5 seconds.  
I want the thumbnail to call up an image for 10 seconds and then resume play.

I’ve attempted adding the “play/pause” function from a different thread but that didn’t seem to work (or I added it to the wrong place?).

Any help would be appreciated!
