RE: Presenter view

Dear Charlotte

Thank you for attending PowerPoint course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.


Please remember that the requirements for using Presenter view
are as following:

1. Make sure that the computer that you are using for the presentation has multiple monitor capability. Most desktop computers require two video cards for multiple monitor capability, and many laptop computers have multiple monitor capability built in.
2. Turn on multiple monitor support.
3. Turn on Presenter view.

To turn on the Multiple monitor support please do the following:

On the Slide Show tab, in the Monitors group, click Use Presenter View.

In the Display Properties dialog box, on the Settings tab, click the monitor icon for the presenter's monitor, and then select the Use this device as the primary monitor check box.

If the Use this device as the primary monitor check box is selected and unavailable, the monitor is already designated as the primary monitor. You can select only one primary monitor at a time. If you click a different monitor icon, the Use this device as the primary monitor check box is cleared and made available again.


Tip You can show Presenter view on and run the presentation from only one monitor
