Microsoft PowerPoint - View your speaker notes privately with Presenter View

Using Presenter View is a great way to view your presentation with speaker notes on one computer (your laptop, for example), while your audience views the notes-free presentation on a different monitor (like a larger screen you're projecting to).

Note: Make sure the device you're using for your presentation supports the use of multiple monitors. Check with your manufacturer for up-to-date information about multiple monitor support.

How to Use Presenter View:

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

Access Presenter View even on a single monitor by pressing Alt+F5.

·      In Presenter View you can swap monitors for Presenter View and Slide Show View (top).

·      You can view your current slide right in the centre of the screen.

·      You can see the elapsed time of the presentation, pause and reset timer, and even see the time of day (above the mail screen).

·      You can see the next slide (upper right column).

·      You can see the speakers notes (lower right column).

·      You have several tools (below the main screen) for:

o Highlighter tool, a pen tool, and a new laser pointer tool too.

o View a thumbnail view of your slides, and click to view a slide out of sequence.

o New Zoom option lets you look close-up into an area on a slide to draw attention to it.

o Black out or White screen tool, or hide screen.

·      You can move to next or previous slide (bottom centre).
