Mac Forum / Applications / PowerPoint / July 2005Presenter tools
Help! We have been using PowerPoint for our church worship services. Because the music minister sometimes changes the order of music, it is imperative that we be able to see the thumbnail layout while the slide show is running. The thumbnails show on our main monitor, and the show itself shows on our second monitor and on the screens. We just purchased PowerPoint 2004, and the Presenter tools come on the screen every time we start a show. We don't want or need the Presenter tools. I checked all the help topics and couldn't find a way to turn them off. Is there a way to turn these off? We have temporarily removed 2004 until we can fix this. > Help!

What's worng with it then ?? > Is there a way to turn these off? We have temporarily removed 2004 > until we can fix this. You have different options in SlideShow: Setup Show... but since I'n not sure what you want, I don't know whether they'll fix your problem :-( Corentin  Signature--- Mac:MS MVP (Francophone) --- http://www.mvps.org - http://mvp.support.microsoft.com MVPs are not MS employees - Les MVP ne travaillent pas pour MS Remove "NoSpam" to e-mail me - Retirez "NoSpam" pour m'écrire The different options in Slide Show/Set Up Show do not give us the option of looking at the thumbnails only. In the previous editions of PowerPoint, when we clicked on the thumbnails button at the bottom of the slide show, it showed us thumbnails of the slide show. By changing the percentage, we could view anywhere from 12 to 150 or so slides at a time. When we hit "Play show", the thumbnails were still visible. In the new version, when you click on the thumbnails button, you do get the thumbnails. But when you hit "Play show", it shows the Presenter Tools: It has up to five upcoming slides stacked on the right side of the screen, a large view of the current slide in the middle of the screen, and a small view of the next upcoming slide at the bottom. That does not work nearly as well as the old version. > > Help! > Hi, [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > MVPs are not MS employees - Les MVP ne travaillent pas pour MS > Remove "NoSpam" to e-mail me - Retirez "NoSpam" pour m'écrire Hi, > The different options in Slide Show/Set Up Show do not give us the > option of looking at the thumbnails only.

Yeah and unforuntately for that I don't know any workaround :-( Corentin Signature--- Mac:MS MVP (Francophone) --- http://www.mvps.org - http://mvp.support.microsoft.com MVPs are not MS employees - Les MVP ne travaillent pas pour MS Remove "NoSpam" to e-mail me - Retirez "NoSpam" pour m'écrire That's too bad. We may end up looking for a replacement for PowerPoint if they don't come up with a fix. |
