Screen preview

[Mike Reed]

Is it possible to have a full screen preview commencing from part way through a sequence? When I click Preview in v7.5 it always starts from the beginning.

Mike,

There's a little icon there that everyone refers to as the "Slice/Piece of Toast" - "Preview from current position".

Go to Settings>Preferences>Toolbars and make sure it is turned on?

Three ways to run a fullscreen preview from selected slide:

1. Double-click to the mini-player (right-top part of the main window).

2. Or right click on the mini-player.

3. Or click "4-arrow" small button (below the mini-player).

Four ways including the "Slice of Toast" icon?

This is why the icon needs to be UP FRONT AND CENTRE

All those options will eventually be found, but not straight away when you need them. Experts are too close to the wood to see the trees.

Thanks everybody. Did not have it turned on, silly me!!

Happy Christmas

Mike,

Turn everything on, move them to where you want them and don't turn anything off until you are absolutely sure that you do not want it?

Happy Xmas,

I think the new way to run a fullscreen preview from selected time position is more logical.

We have a mini-player and fullscreen preview is a work of the mini-player in fullscreen mode. Also please take in attention that now this preview starts from current time position (not from slide number as in previous versions).

New users who used video players or YouTube player will find same controls to run fullscreen mode (the button, and double-click to a picture).

But for those who are more used to using the "Slice of Toast" button it still starts from the beginning of the slide.

I prefer this approach in order to get the "whole slide" view.
