Information on using Presenter view

Some lecturers have a preference to use Presenter view. Using PowerPoint presenter view shows you the current slide, the next slide, and your speaker notes.

Tips on using presenter view in the lecture theatres:

  • If you Open in browser, your presentation will display fully in a web browser.  Note that you will not have access to PowerPoint presenter view, as this works only with Open in App (see next).
  • If you select to Open in App, and are using presenter view, ensure you extend the desktop in the venue.
