Presenters view

[Doug Banner]

Is it possible to chage the size of the thumbnails in
presenters view? I am running Office 2003 with a flat
panel display set at 1024x768. I would like to increase
the size of the thumbnails so I coul read the text on
them to verify that I have the right slide coming up.
Also I use a RF remote presenter to advance my slides and
when I use presenter view it will not work. Any ideas
would be most welcome.

Hello,

PowerPoint doesn't provide the functionality that you are looking for.

PowerPoint provide this kind of functionality (without having to resort to
VBA or add-ins), don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS,
please) to Microsoft at:

Sorry Doug, there does not seem to be a way to adjust the size of these
thumbnails. This is just one of the ways that the Presenter view could be
improved. Please let MS know how they can improve this for the next
PowerPoint release.

I don't think Presenter View is configurable the way you want.

You might want to look at PowerShow add-in at
http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html - among other things, it
enables you to see a preview of the upcoming slide on one monitor while
showing the slides through the projector. See if this helps.
