| 107567 | 2002-12-19 08:37:00 | How can I view Powerpoint presentation on a laptop screen with cursor and task bars while viewing only the highlighted slide on the data projector screen? I'm running Windows 98. Thanks. | kevnealpp (2809) | ||
| 107568 | 2002-12-19 08:42:00 | I don't think this can be done sorry :-( | robsonde (120) | ||
| 107569 | 2002-12-19 08:44:00 | As I understand your query, you want to have the projected image the actual presentation view, while the laptop displayed image you want the edit view? I cant envisage why you would need this, apart from wanting to immediately view edit changes. Power Point does not (to my knowledge) support this feature. I cannot see how the projected image could be in presentation mode while its being live edited, the program would need to be running two separate instances, and in that case you would still not see the on-screen changes (as 2 separate copies of the file would be needed) If its set up correctly, what you see on the edit on laptop is what you see when its in presentation mode. If its not, something needs setting up. |

| 107571 | 2002-12-19 10:01:00 | thanks, like you I can't see how it could be done though I was told it could be. | kevnealpp (2809) | ||
| 107572 | 2002-12-19 10:27:00 | I have seen it being done but dont know how. | superOman (745) | ||
| 107573 | 2002-12-19 10:33:00 | You do something like this with Office XP. I've never tried, but apparently you can view the notes pane on your laptop while the audience sees the full presentation on the screen. David |

| 107574 | 2002-12-19 10:35:00 | I have just figured it out by looking in the help menu in powerpoint: Heres how: (It looks easy, but I havet got a laptop and data projector to try it on) Go to slide show (in the menu bar at the top of the screen) Click on view on two computers, and set up the settings for it. You may also have to go to set up show under slide show as well/ I hope this works, and hope I have been of some assistance See - the help menu is useful sometimes. |

| 107575 | 2002-12-19 10:50:00 | Yes! PowerPoint XP does allow the 2 views, but not in "edit mode". as that halts the show. It does allow you to view the different attributes such as notes etc. I have dual monitors so can test it. I can see the point for the notes view + presentation, now. Wonder if it was there in earlier versions?. BTW the menu is just "View Show" in XP Its actually not that nice to use, as it does not auto synchronise, and if you click on the wrong place, you halt the slide show. Given the co-ordination problems, I will definitely stay with printed notes! |
