Your secret presentation aid<\/h3>\n

Presenter View is a secret view that\u2019s only for you! It\u2019s a way of seeing your notes and upcoming slides while your audience sees only the current slide as usual.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Presenter View looks like.<\/p>\n

\"powerpoint<\/p>\n

What can you do with Presenter View?<\/strong>
\nAs you can see, Presenter View has 3 panes: your slide, your notes, and slide thumbnails at the bottom. Here are some great Presenter View features:<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>You can click any slide to go to it immediately.<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>You can resize the panes by dragging on their border. For example, you might want to make the Notes pane larger and the Slide pane smaller<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>At the bottom of the Notes pane, you can use the Zoom In and Zoom Out buttons to get the notes text just the size you want, so it\u2019s easily readable.<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>Beneath the slide is a timer that keeps you on track.<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>Beneath the slide, you have easy access to both forward and back arrows.<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>You can also access pen and pointer features by clicking the Pointer Options button below the slide.<\/p>\n

Beneath the slide, at the left, you see your current slide and the total number of slides.<\/p>\n
