Igor Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 Does anybody tried how new "Permit the control of show" option works for synchronized slide-shows? It should allows to rewind or pause playback as in unsynchronized presentations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor Posted December 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 I'm glad that this feature can be useful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeL117 Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 I have tried this excellent feature and the 'pause' facility is very useful although the next and previous slide options are rather less so. What would be a worthwhile extension is the jump to a named slide which could be used as a 'Next Section'/'Previous section'. When sound is playing it would be good if the sound could fade out and back in to make the jump much smoother.If there is time to sample the input a couple of times during a long fade it would help make it more responsive.Keyboard shortcuts would enable a show to be driven transparently. Possible typing a number will jump to that slide as in PowerPoint Thanks again Igor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaroldB Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 I would like to second what Mike said. The current feature is very good, and is certainly welcome, but I would love to extend this feature to allow a named slide (which must optionally be able to NOT be shown at all in the normal course of the slide show) to be shown when the mouse is clicked. I should be able, on that slide, to resume, to exit, or to go to slide "n" (many different slides, depending on which button I click). While that slide is shown, the music should pause.This would allow me to have "sections" of a slide show and branch at any point to a different section, without needing the current multiple shows.I do not see this as a "high priority" but as a "Very Good Thing".Harold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
