Presentation Editor

Click on a letter to jump to that area's description.

The Presentation Editor is where you will design your presentations. The Editor features a very easy to use interface that allows you to quickly add any number slides to your presentation.

A) Slide List: This is your list of slides currently in your presentation. Each slide is listed in the order of their appearance along with their slide name. (Each slide can have it's own name for easy identification.) To select a slide to edit, simply click on a slide to name to highlight it.

B) Navigational Buttons: "Move Selected Slide" allows you to move the current slide up or down in the presentation list. "Move Through List" allows you to scroll up and down through the presentation list instead of having to actually click on a slide.

C) Preview Widow: This window allows you to see exactly what the slide will look like. (When rendered to that small of a window) At the bottom of the preview window will be the slide sequence and it's name. The right of the slide name is a Preview check box. When checked this allows you to preview video effects also. When turned off it allows quicker navigational editing.

D) Menu Buttons: Each menu button performs a certain task:

Add Slides - Add slides to your presentation.

Properties - Allows you to edit the current slide's properties.

Copy - Brings up the copy menu where you can quickly copy the contents of the current slide to any number of other slides in your presentation.

Playback Mode

• Auto Play - Select this option to start the presentation in "Auto Platy Mode".  The slides will change after the defined amount of time for each slide.   NOTE: During the playing of your presentation you can change from "Auto Play Mode" to "Navigation Bar Mode" at any time by hitting the ESC key.  This will bring up the navigation bar.
  
  
• Navigation Bar - Select this option to start the presentation in "Navigation Bar Mode", a small navigational bar will be displayed during the presentation allowing the viewer to navigate through the presentation using the Navigation Bar.  Using the Navigation Bar, the user can jump to any slide or change display modes. NOTE: While in Navigation Bar Mode, you can also change slides by using the mouse buttons and clicking on the slide. (Left button = Forward     Right button = Back)
  
  
• Mouse Mode: - Select this option to start the presentation in "Mouse Mode".  No navigation bar will be displayed.  The user will need to use the mouse buttons to change slides when they are ready.  (Left mouse button = Forward   Right mouse button = Back).  NOTE: During the playing of your presentation you can change from "Mouse Mode" to "Navigation Bar Mode" at any time by hitting the ESC key.  This will bring up the navigation bar.  This mode is nice when you want to run the presentation in full screen and just want to hold onto the mouse and click the buttons to change slides when you are ready.

Repeat Options: When the presentation comes to the last slide you can set it to simply end or start from the beginning again.
